Gene, the circumstances did not have anything at all to do "with sending supplies to Fort Sumter."

And, Roger, the person being addressed was not Horace Greeley.

Clue number one: The person being addressed by Lincoln had himself delivered an "address" in the House of Representatives to a large audience the previous day. President Lincoln, who was greatly interested in the subject matter of the address, was among the distinguished persons present.
