Lincoln and the Bore
The late Hon. Charles W. Slack recalled Hon. Peter Harvey, friend and biographer of Daniel Webster, describing Harvey as having a large map with a small voice and a diffident manner. He recounted Harvey’s visit to President Lincoln early in the Civil War and the exchange about Webster. Lincoln, Harvey said, was singular, and Harvey claimed intimate acquaintance with Webster’s affairs to advise Lincoln on what to say.
