Note from page 264: 1. William H. Herndon apparently forgot about his obligation to keep this material confidential, for he sold copies of it to none other than Ward Hill Lamon, the man referred to here by Pinkerton.

Note from page 264: 2. Apparently Bartlett was the secretary who wrote out and signed this letter.
