Reading edition

Letter to the Lincoln and Hamlin Club of Owego, New York, July 30, 1860.

Illustration from Charles Sumner: his complete works, volume 06 (of 20)

Boston, July 30, 1860.

DEAR SIR,—It is still uncertain whether my engagements here and elsewhere will allow me to visit Tioga County during the present season. But I beg to assure the Republicans there of my sympathy in their generous labors.

There is ample reward simply in working for a good cause; but we have before us, also, the assurance that our candidates will be elected.

Accept my thanks for the honor of your invitation, and believe me, dear Sir,

With much respect,

Faithfully yours,

Charles Sumner.

Isaac S. Catlin, Esq.
