Things Lincoln never said

[RJNorton]

Steve, can you please post a source for Herndon saying Lincoln said this. Thanks. If Herndon indeed reported this, I may consider deleting the quote from my web page. Personally (and I sure may have missed it), I do not recall ever reading that Herndon reported Lincoln saying this. Although the book does have endnotes, there is no endnote for Merrill Peterson's statement on p. 232. (No matter what, Professor Peterson's book is an invaluable resource - highly respected)
