"In the spring of 1859, Governor Seward crossed the Atlantic, visiting Egypt, traversing Syria, and other portions of Asia Minor as well as much of Europe. Soon after his return he came one evening to my seat in Dr. Chapin's church,—as he had repeatedly done during former visits to our city,—and I now recall this as the last occasion on which we ever met."—Horace Greeley, Recollections of a Busy Life, p. 321.
