186622863<p>Lincoln's first vice president discusses local Maine politics regarding the replacement of a longstanding U.S. District Court Judge.</p> <b>HANNIBAL HAMLIN.</b>Autograph Letter Signed to Sidney Perham Boston May 4 1866. 2 pp. 5 x 8 in. marked <i>"Private"</i> and docketed <i>"H Hamlin."</i><p><b><br /></b></p><p><b>Complete Transcript</b></p><p><i>May 4 1866</i></p><p> <i>My Dear Sir</i></p><p> <i>I hear that Judge Ware has sent his resignation to Washington. It is also said that the appointment of a successor probably lies between Fox and Talbot Dist Atty.</i></p><p> <i>Now my preference is for Mr. Godfrey of Bangor. He is the man whom I would be glad to see appointed. But if it is to be either Fox or Talbot then it is clear to my mind that Talbot ought to be the man. He is a whole Republican. Fox never was but half a one at most. If it comes to that I hope yourself and Mr. Rice will aid Talbot in preference to Fox as I believe T. the most deserving man. Will you show this letter to Mr. Rice.</i></p><p> <i>I sympathise with you in this day of our political afflictions and rest assured the people will sustain you.</i></p><p> <i>Yours truly</i></p><p> <i>H Hamlin</i></p><p> <i>Hon S. Perham</i></p><p><b>Sidney Perham</b> 1819-1907 was a U.S. congressman from Maine 1863-1869 and Maine governor 1871-1874.</p><p><b>Ashur Ware</b> 1782-1873 was educated at Harvard and Bowdoin receiving his law degree from the latter institution. He practiced in Boston then moved Portland Maine. He edited the <i>Eastern Argus</i>1817-1820 which advocated separation from Massachusetts and when this was accomplished via the Missouri Compromise 1820 Ware was the new state's first secretary of state. In 1822 James Monroe nominated him for a judgeship in U.S. District Court for Maine. He resigned in 1866 after serving one of the longest tenures of any U.S. federal judge.</p><p><b>George F. Talbot</b> 1819-1907 graduated from Bowdoin and became an attorney in East Machias Maine. He was twice the Free Soil Party's nominee for governor 1849-1850 and attended the 1860 convention that nominated Abraham Lincoln for president. Lincoln in 1861 appointed him U.S. attorney for Maine presumably Hamlin is referring to the federal court district of Maine when he calls Talbot the <i>"Dist Atty"</i>. Talbot was Solicitor of the Treasury 1876-1877.</p><p><b>Hannibal Hamlin</b> 1809-1891 served in the Maine state legislature before entering Congress in 1843 as a Democrat. In 1848 he was elected by the anti-slavery wing of the Democratic party to fill a vacancy in the Senate and served until 1857 when he resigned to become the Republican governor of Maine. In 1860 Hamlin was picked as Lincoln's running mate to "nationalize" the Republican party. Both Lincoln and Hamlin shared an opposition to the expansion of slavery.</p><p>In 1864 Republican convention delegates replaced him on the ticket with Andrew Johnson the Union military governor of Tennessee. As a War Democrat and Southern Unionist Johnson provided strategic and symbolic power for the Republicans that Hamlin could not. The vice president would later observe that he had been "dragged out of the Senate against my wishes – tried to do my <i>whole</i> duty and was then unceremoniously 'whistled down the wind'" Hatfield 203-209. He later accepted a position as collector of the port of Boston returning to the Senate in 1869. From 1881-82 Hamlin was U.S. minister to Spain before devoting the remainder of his life to agricultural pursuits.</p>
