4768. LINCOLN (Levi), Bench.—
I was
overjoyed when I heard you were appointed to
the Supreme Bench of national justice, and as
much mortified when I heard you had declined
it. You are too young to be entitled to withdraw
your services from your country. You
cannot yet number the quadraginta stipendia
of the veteran.—
To Levi Lincoln. Washington ed. vi, 8.

Aug. 1811)
