Vandalia

The actual transfer of the seat of government from Vandalia to Springfield in 1839 gave the new capital fresh animation.

The latest legal business of Mr. Bredejord has been to establish Erik's claim as sole proprietor of the Vandalia mine.

When Lincoln took his seat in the first session of the new Legislature at Vandalia, his mind was full of new projects.

There were a great many people and all sorts of vehicles on the road from Springfield to Vandalia.

During my stay of a few weeks in Vandalia I frequently met Mr. Lincoln.
