A Messenger From President Lincoln By DANIEL TRUMAN any one else but milted to the edge of :some timber and +MAP I reaphed iteran like a deer. I reached 'Washington without fur - During tee critical period of 1361 when Mr. Lincoln was cut off from the north in Washington I was asked to carry a message by the president to New York. "Here is a letter," he said, "which I would like you to take to the governor of. New York, or if you can't get through to New York and can go to Harrisburg deliver It to the governor of Pennsylvania. I believe there are more militia ready to come from New York than anywhere else; therefore I prefer that you should go there. The letter gives the appalling condition of things here, and, coming from me, it would never do for it to fall into the hands of the secessionists. I must therefore ask you to protect it with your life and if taken by southern sympathizers destroy it If possible." "Mr. President," I said, "I shall car-' ry out your order to the best of my ability." I succeeded in getting a train that took me to Baltimore and, not being known in any way connected with the government, had no trouble in getting through the city. It was at Havre de Grace that I met with danger. The secessionists had burned the railway bridge over the Susquehanna river, and there was no way of getting amiss ex- cept in rowboats. There was a secret patrol by seces- sionists on both shores who made it their business to see that no one in the Interest of the government got across. Pretending to be a rabid oppondht of the "black Republican government," as it was then called, I walked up and down the southern bank Of the river, ostensibly watching for those who were on business for the troops trying to make their way to Washington. See- ing a boat coming, 1 called upon sev- eral men of the volunteer patrol, say- ing: "Here comes a boat with several men in it. The one io the stern with a silk hat on looks lite a railway offi- cial I knocv and a northern man. He may be working to open the road. Let's see." We met the boat when it landed, and I etraightway accused the man I had mentioned or being an assistant super- inteticlent or the railroad.
