The following is a portion of a letter written to: Rev. J. T. Hobson (1-17-1909).

...then Mr. Lincoln wrote again saying that he would be pleased to name us, Father wrote and told him that he would be pleased to have him name us. He said the first should be named Abraham Lincoln, second Gideon Welles, and the third Simon Cameron. We were born in Starksboro, Addison county Vermont. My mother's name, before she was married, was Louisa E. Grace, and is there ever was a Christian she was the very best one....I feel proud of my name, and try hard to honor it in every respect.

Yours with respect,

Abraham Lincoln Haskins
