A Kansas Memory Podcast
Lincoln In Kansas
The documents used in the Lincoln
podcast are available on 
- Daniel Mulford Valentine's diary
Daniel Mulford Valentine, 1830-1907, moved to
Leavenworth, Kansas Territory, from Fontanelle, Iowa, in 1859. Valentine
was 28 years old at the time, and was a lawyer and surveyor. Presidential
candidate Abraham Lincoln gave two speeches in Leavenworth when he
visited Kansas in late 1859 and Valentine attended and wrote about
both.
This podcast also uses material from the Historical Society's quarterly
publications and our collection of Kansas
newspapers on microfilm.
