Lincoln's last paycheck

[RJNorton]

Where is the check stored today? I wonder if the backside has Lincoln's signature.

Bill, I don't know, but I checked Pratt's book on Lincoln's finances, and it says David Davis (administrator of Lincoln's estate) found that Lincoln had not deposited (or cashed) his last four salary checks. Davis took them to Springfield and deposited them in an account he opened in the Springfield Marine and Fire Insurance Company.
