How many death threats did president Lincoln receive during his time in office?

Like most controversial public figures, he learned to live with the ever present threat of assassination and took safeguards as needed. Lincoln kept every death threat he ever received in a file in his office. He reacted by sticking to his guns for the four years of his administration, resisting the expenasion of slavery and trying to hold the Union together during the Civil War. There was no serious attempt on his life until John Wilkes Booth actually shot him in April 1865, so most likely he didn't take the threats all that seriously. The stress of the job and the pressures of running a war were much greater than the fear of assassination.
