Hart at one time contemplated issuing a bibliography of books published on the occasion of Mr. Lincoln's death and had taken pains to give the text and number of copies printed. Upon learning his willingness to transfer this information to me, I threw out such titles in my list as he had mentioned in his and gave him a place in my book."
