Abraham Brokaw, of Bloomington, loaned five hundred dollars to one of his neighbors and took a note, which remained unpaid. Ac- tion was brought, the sheriff levied on the property of the debtor and collected the entire amount, bu...t neglected to turn the pro- ceeds over. Brokaw employed Stephen A. Douglas, who col- lected the amount from the bondsman of the sheriff, but re- turned to his seat in tbe Senate at Washington without making settlement. Like some other great men, Douglas was very careless about money matters, and, after appealing to him again and again, Brokaw employed David Davis to bring suit against the senator. Being an intimate friend and fellow Dem- ocrat, Davis disliked to appear in tbe case, and by his advice Brokaw engaged the services of Lincoln.
