Excerpt from Abraham Lincoln's Contemporaries: Chauncey Depew; Excerpts From Newspapers and Other Sources
I was elected to the assembly, the popular branch of the New York Legisla ture, in 1861. I was nominated during an absence from the State, Without being a candidate or knowing of it until my return. Of course I could expect noth ing from my father, and my own earnings were not large, so I had to rely upon a personal canvass of a district which had been largely spoiled by _rich candidates running against each other and spending large amounts of money. I made a hot canvass, speaking every day, and with an investment of less than one hundred dollars for travel and other expenses I was triumphantly elected.
