This man, who has been previously mentioned on this forum, met Abraham Lincoln during his presidential years. He noted the following:

"I saw this kind-hearted, noble man several times during the war. On two occasions I was present at public receptions given by him. Tall in stature, long-limbed, with an honest, homely, and sad face of which his very soul seemed to speak, he had a kind word and genial smile for all, however lowly, who approached him.

Taking my hand in his with a firm, full grasp, his words were, "How do you do sir? I am glad to see you."

Whose words are these?
