v. Irwin et al., and Irwin et al. v. Bell et
al., file petitions for partition. Defendants are notified to appear at March term of the
Sangamon County Circuit Court.Sangamo Journal, 15 February 1844. [William H. Herndon writes to John J. Hardin in Washington: "We have had several Whig
meetings in Springfield lately and they seem to have carried enthusiasm to its highest pitch.... At these `Clay Clubs' we sing old songs for `gallant Harry' and this with eloquent speaking
from Logan, Lincoln and Baker You may well imagine the effect.... we have a meeting once or twice a
week and we intend to keep them up till November.... I know that if you were in Morgan all would go
well but I fear that the people of Morgan have lost what they are not able to replace. I know
how this goes if Baker or Lincoln is missing at our meetings. It seems that something is
lost." John J. Hardin Papers, Chicago History Museum, Chicago,
