Executive Mansion,
Washington, Nov. 21, 1864.

Dear Madam,--

I have been shown in the files of the War Department a statement of the Adjutant General of Massachusetts that you are the mother of five sons who have died gloriously on the field of battle.

I feel how weak and fruitless must be any word of mine which should attempt to beguile you from the grief of a loss so overwhelming. But I cannot refrain from tendering you the consolation that may be found in the thanks of the Republic they died to save.

I pray that our Heavenly Father may assuage the anguish of your bereavement, and leave you only the cherished memory of the loved and lost, and the solemn pride that must be yours to have laid so costly a sacrifice upon the altar of freedom.

Yours, very sincerely and respectfully,

A. Lincoln

The privilege of creating and issuing money is not only the supreme prerogative of Government, but it is the Government's greatest creative opportunity. By the adoption of these principles, the long-felt want for a uniform medium will be satisfied. The taxpayers will be saved immense sums of interest, discounts and exchanges. The financing of all public enterprises, the maintenance of stable government and ordered progress, and the conduct of the Treasury will become matters of practical administration. The people can and will be furnished with a currency as safe as their own government. Money will cease to be the master and become the servant of humanity. Democracy will rise superior to the money power.

Anda,
Tidak dapat menguatkan yang lemah dengan melemahkan yang kuat
Tidak dapat membantu orang-orang kecil dengan mencabik orang besar
Tidak dapat menolong orang miskin dengan menghancurkan orang kaya
Tidak dapat mengangkat penerima upah dengan menekan pembayar upah
Tidak dapat terhindar dari masalah dengan menghasilkan penghasilan lebih besar
Tidak dapat memajukan rasa persaudaraan dengan mendorong kebencian antar ras
Tidak dapat menciptakan keamanan di atas uang pinjaman
Tidak dapat membangun karakter dan semangat dengan merampas inisiatif dan kemerdekaan.
