Summary[edit]

Description

This relates to H.C. DeMunn in that he was one of five delegates who represented Boone County, Illinois in the Illinois State Nominating Convention held in Decatur on May 10, 1860.

The page above, The Daily Illinois State Journal was published in Springfield May 12, 1860, two days after the event. The National Convention took place May 16-18 in Chicago.

Its a long winded page about nominating Lincoln but to cut to the chase, all the Illinois delegates were listed under the county they represented and they all voted for Lincoln.

The list of delegates begins in the third column and luckily the counties are listed alphabetically so Boone County is easy to find. You will have to enlarge the page or download the full size to read it but I will include a transcription below.
