Uncle Sam" making new arrangements
Uncle Sam, in eighteenth-century costume, ushering Abraham Lincoln into the White House. Stephen A. Douglas, John C. Breckinridge, and John Bell present their claims but are told they are too late. At window of the "White House," James Buchanan, with "Dirty Linen," bewails his "Notice to pack, up and quit without a character." Cf. Weitenkampf.; "Entered according to act of Congress, in the year 1860, by Currier & Ives, in the Clerk's Office of the District Court, for the Southern Distt. of N.Y."; Probably drawn by Louis Maurer.
