May 9, 1865. Address of the provost magistrates and town council of the royal burgh of Kirkaldy, Scotland. To Charles Francis Adams, esq., envoy extraordinary and minister plenipotentiary for the United States of America, London. Sir: The provost magistrates and town council of the royal burgh of Kirkaldy, Scotland, desire to express their unfeigned sorrow at the tragic termination of the career of the late loved and lamented President of the United States of America, Abraham Lincoln. They join in the universal cry of horror and detestation at the dreadful crime which has inflicted so deep a wound in the heart of the nation, and has awakened so keen a sympathy with you throughout the civilized world. They recognize in the late President a man who, by his honesty, vigor, and ability, secured the intense affection and respect of the people; one fitted to rule in the midst of the greatest civil conflict the world has seen, and to temper with forbearance and clemency the triumph over the vanquished. They join in earnest hope that your severe and protracted struggle may terminate with his intentions and desires fully accomplished, in the downfall of slavery, and in the entire removal from your great nation of an evil which has hitherto tramelled and distressed it. They anticipate a bright future for America in the reign of freedom, intelligence, and Christian worth; they desire an intimate and friendly understanding between her and the government and people of Great Britain; and trust that, together, they may long continue the pioneers and promoters of civilization and freedom. They will feel obliged by your communicating these sentiments to the government of America. Signed in name and by authority of the provost magistrates and town council of the royal burgh of Kirkaldy, and the seal of the burgh hereunto appended. PATRICK D. SWAN, N.

Address to President Johnson by the friends of union and emancipation in Hawick. Address unanimously adopted at a public meeting of the friends of union and emancipation, held at Hawick, Scotland, May 5, 1865: His Excellency, Andrew Johnson,  President of the United States of America: Having heard with profound sorrow of the assassination of his Excellency President Lincoln and the attempted assassination of the Hon. Mr. Seward, we tender to you this expression of our deep sense of the wickedness of the atrocious crime that has been perpetrated, and of our heartfelt sympathy with the American people under the heavy loss they have sustained in the untimely close of Mr. Lincoln’s great career. While feeling deep sorrow for the death of that great and good man, to whose inflexibility of purpose and unswerving fidelity to great principles the American people have been so much indebted throughout the gigantic struggle in which they have been engaged, we cannot help expressing, at the same time, our high satisfaction at the recent great victories of your armies, under General Grant, over the confederates at Richmond and Petersburg, the capture of these cities, the surrender of General Lee with the shattered remnant of his once formidable rebel army, and the subsequent successes of the army under General Sherman, resulting, as that brilliant series of events does, in the entire overthrow of one of the most gigantic conspiracies against the rights of mankind of which history contains any record, and giving confident hope of the complete restoration of the Union and of the emancipation of the negro race. We cannot doubt that the same policy which was so steadfastly and ably carried out by Mr. Lincoln will be continued by yourself, on whom the highest responsibilities of the state have now devolved; and we trust that ere long the great issues of Union and emancipation may be fully and happily consummated; and that the United States, emancipated from the evil and disorganizing institution of slavery, and from the dominating power of a slave aristocracy, may come out of this great crisis a yet purer, stronger, and freer nation, and that between her government and ours, and her people and ours, feelings of amity and brotherhood may ever be maintained, and that the two nations advancing together in righteousness, in commerce, and in moral power, may lead forward the nations of the world to higher conditions of prosperity, happiness, and justice than any that have yet been attained.

At Glasgow, and within the Merchants’ Hall, this 3d day of May, 1865, at a meeting of the members of the Merchants’ House, called by public advertisement for the purpose of “expressing abhorrence at the detestable crime which has deprived the United States of President Lincoln, and to vote an address of condolence to them on this melancholy occasion,” Archibald Orr Ewing, esq., lord dean of guild, in the chair— The clerk read the advertisement calling the meeting, after which the lord dean of guild proposed the following resolution: That this house have received the intelligence of the assassination of President Lincoln of the United States of America with sentiments of horror and pain. That they desire to express their heartfelt sympathy and condolence with the people of the United States, who, in a manner so shocking to every feeling of humanity and so subversive of social order, have been suddenly deprived of their Chief Magistrate at a momentous crisis in the history of their country. That this house would record their high respect for the character of the late President Lincoln, and their grateful remembrance of his endeavors, at all times, to preserve and cultivate friendly relations with Great Britain; and they would express their earnest hope and prayer that the prospects of internal peace which had opened to the United States during the last days of Mr. Lincoln’s life may not be materially affected by the execrable deed which has brought that life prematurely to an end. Which resolution, having been seconded by Sir James Campbell, of Stracathro, was unanimously agreed to. It was then moved by Alexander Harvey, esq., that the lord dean of guild be authorized to sign the resolutions now read and approved by this house, and that he thereafter forward them to the United States government through the American minister in London. Which motion, having been seconded by William M’Ewen, esq., was also unanimously carried. The lord dean of guild having declared the business of the meeting terminated, it was thereupon moved by Peter White, esq., that a vote of thanks be accorded to the lord dean of guild for the promptitude with which he had called the meeting, and for the able manner in which he had presided. Which motion having been carried by acclamation, the meeting separated. Signed and sealed with the corporation seal of the Merchants’ House, in name and by appointment of said house, at Glasgow, this 3d day of May, 1865. [seal.] ARCHIBALD ORR EWING,  Dean of Guild.

We cannot but regard it as a base violation of every principle of right, both human and divine, and as such at variance with the spirit and law of all civilized nations. 2d. Moved by the Rev. Mr. M’Ghee, seconded by the Rev. Mr. M’Rae, and resolved, that in accordance with the common sympathies of our nature, and in the spirit of our holy Christianity, we hereby beg to present our deep sympathy for and condolence with the bereaved widow and her afflicted family in the loss they have sustained by the removal, especially in such a manner, of an affectionate husband and a kind father. 3d. Moved by the Rev. Mr. Campbell, seconded by James Cowan, esq., M. P. P., and resolved, that we also hereby beg to express our earnest sympathy with the people of the United States in being thus deprived, at a critical period of their history, of the services of one whom they called to fill the office of Chief Magistrate at a time when that position was beset with most unparalleled difficulties, and yet who so conducted himself as to secure not only the confidence and love of his own people, but also the admiration and esteem of foreign nations, who, from his consistent character, were led to regard him as a sagacious, conciliatory, honest, yet firm chief ruler. 4th. Moved by the Rev Mr. Murdoch, seconded by William Osborne, esq., and resolved, that we mourn the untimely death of Abraham Lincoln as one honestly desirous of maintaining peace with the British nation, a firm friend of what is dear to us as Britons and as Christians, the cause of emancipation, and it is our confident hope, while it will ever be our prayer, that divine Providence may grant to his successor the same wise and Christian policy.

Unto the government and people of the United States of America—the address of the provost magistrates and town council of the royal burgh of Forfar, in Scotland. We beg to approach you with heartfelt regret upon the atrocious deed recently perpetrated, through which you have been so suddenly and cruelly bereaved of the wise and patriotic counsels of your honored chief. We have watched his career since he was first elected President of your great country, and he has more and more proved that his subdued firmness and energy, steadfastness to truth and morality, calm and foreseeing practical wisdom and kindly forgiving nature, fitted him for his high office, and specially qualified him for rightly steering the vessel of the state in its present perilous trials. It is, therefore, that we, in common with our countrymen, mourn his loss. We hope and trust that, chastened by the sad event, and guided by and following his noble example, you will in this time of affliction treat tenderly with all who have departed from the path of loyalty, and through your clemency command the admiration of the civilized world, heal shattered and embittered feelings, and engender kindly intercourse, so long rudely dislocated. Signed in name and behalf of the council, in council assembled, by me, provost Forfar, and the seal of the burgh attached, this first day of May, eighteen hundred and sixty-five.

May 5th 1865 Madam, The overwhelming affliction which has befallen you and which has spread mourning not only over your country but over the whole world ought perhaps to command my silent sympathy. But that national calamity is also a personal loss to me who had many opportunities of appreciating himself the noble heart, the great qualities of M. Lincoln, who held from him his commission in the Federal Army and who gratefully remembers the gracious and friendly manner in which it was tendered to him. I hope therefore that you will excuse the liberty I take to offer you the expression of my sincere condolence with your grief. It is an impulse which I could not resist, an hommage which I am anxious to pay to a great and respected memory. Nobody pretends to offer you any consolation for what mean the voices of the whole world when the only voice which we long to hear once more is silent for ever? But the expressions of sympathy are, perhaps, more acceptable when they come from one who has gone himself through the terrible ordeal of great and untimely family losses. It is with these feelings that I beg you, Madam, to believe me, Your most devoted Louis Philippe D'Orléans Status The current transcription status of a document or a page.
