Matheny, one of Lincoln's earliest and closest friends, in a letter to William H. Herndon, says : "I knew Mr. Lincoln as early as 1834-7; know he was an infidel. He used to talk infidelity in the clerk's office in this city (Ne\^ Salem, Illi- nois), about the years 1837-40. Lincoln attacked the Bible on two grounds : first, from the inherent or apparent contradictions under its lids ; second, from the grounds of reason. * * * Lincoln would come into the clerk's office, where I and some young me...n were writing and staying, and would bring the Bible with him, read a chapter, and argue against it. " Hon John T. Stuart, law partner of Lincoln's in 1837 : "I knew Mr. Lincoln when he first came here, and for years after- Vy-ards. He was an avowed and open infidel, sometimes bordering on athe- ism. Lincoln always denied that Jesus was the Son of God as understood and maintained by the Christian church. The Rev. Dr. Smith, who wrote a letter, tried to convert Lincoln from infidelity so late as 1858, and couldn't do it.
