Note from page 368: 3. Written in the margin and then stricken: after Hardin was nominated & Elected The Convention was struck — rose to its feet and Nominated Baker went to Galena — and this took Lincoln by surprise — and so it ended. Baker succeeded Hardin & Lincoln succeeded Baker — . The phrase "went to Galena" is inserted with a caret and seems to have been intended as a parenthetical.
