The meeting is to be of all those who maintain unconditional devotion to the Union; and I am sure my old political friends will thank me for ten- 10 dering, as I do, the nation's gratitude to those and other noble men whom no partisan malice or parti- san hope can make false to the nation's life. There are those who are dissatisfied with me. To such I would say: You desire peace, and you blame 15 me that we do not have it. But how can we attain 165 166 ABRAHAM LINCOLN it ?
