The US Capitol Visitor Center's online link to a handwritten version the bill [Link] only shows the first page of it, which containing Sections 1, 2, and parts of 3. They did not show the Section 5 fugitive slave part of the bill. That omission reminded me that one of the Lincoln societies changed Lincoln's use of the n-word in their version of one of Lincoln's speeches to something less offensive. Apparently, some folks don't want to present negative things about Lincoln.

To DoodleDawg.

And *THIS* is why you can't trust biographers to accurately tell about Lincoln's worrisome actions which reflect badly on him. There are a large number of people out there who want to cover up the really ugly side of Lincoln and only present the saintly view of him.

Yeah there are no more noteworthy biographers than the Capitol Visitor Center. </sarcasm> Except maybe a newspaper editorial.
