Obsequies of Abraham Lincoln in the City of New York: Under the Auspices of the Common Council (1866) is a historical account of the funeral services held for President Abraham Lincoln in New York City. The book is written by David Thomas Valentine, who served as the Clerk of the Common Council at the time of Lincoln's assassination. The book offers a detailed description of the planning and execution of the funeral services, which were held in April 1865, just days after Lincoln's death. It includes information on the various events that took place, such as the procession through the city, the public viewing of Lincoln's body, and the various addresses and speeches that were given in his honor.

The book includes numerous illustrations and photographs of the events, as well as transcripts of some of the speeches and addresses that were given.
