RE: The Bixby Letter
Bill, I believe Lincoln asked the Adjutant General of Massachusetts, William Schouler, to deliver the letter. I think it is either assumed or known that Schouler also gave the text of the letter to a Boston newspaper which printed it. Other newspapers followed suit. The public learned of the letter through reading it in the papers, not from Mrs. Bixby. It is believed that Mrs. Bixby did not appreciate Lincoln's letter and threw it out.
