Hon. Abraham Lincoln
Jan. 9th 1859 [1860].
Dr Sir — It has been publicly stated in this place that you endorse the Fugitive Slave Law of 1850, as constitutional in its object, & in its provisions in All Respects– You would would confer a favour upon the writer of this as well as upon many Republicans hereabouts by briefly giving your views upon the matter–
Yours Very Truly
A. J. Grover
Mem. of Rep. County
Com. of La Salle Co.
