Note from page 574: 1. Marginal note: Send this back to me when you are done with it Dont forget. WHH
This interview seems to have been sent to Ward Hill Lamon in WHH's letter of February 19, 1870. On February 25, WHH wrote to Lamon: "I sent you some days since more at the request of Jno Armstrong than of myself a short account of what I had to say on Lincoln's house divided against itself speech should not have sent it for the same reason that I have refused failed to say more write more to you namely I do not wish to be considered a blow boast or fool who wishes to be noticed &c. &c." (Lamon Papers, Huntingon Library).
