money to the woman. When he was
twenty-three, men were wanted to fight
the Indians. Lincoln was elected cap
tain of a compay. Years afterward the
president told this story of his -military
experience:
One day he was drilling his men and,
they were marching with twenty men
fronting in line across a field when
when he wished to pass through a gate
into the next field. "I could not for
the life of me," said Lincoln, "remem
ber the proper word "of command for
getting my company 'endwise,' so that
it could get through the gate, so, as we
came near the gate, I shouted: 'This
company is dismissed for two min
utes, when it will in again on the
other side of the gate.' "
The Hon. Chauncey M. Depew is the
authority for this story of Lincoln.
Lincoln was trying a case and was for
the defense, the charge being one of
assault and battery. The witness for
the prosecution Lincoln at once made
out to be a bumptious fellow. He de
scribed the fight. Lincoln asKed,
"Well, my friend, how much ground
did you and my client fight oyer?"
The man quickly answered, "About six
acres." "Well," said Lincoln, with a
twinkle in his eyes and a smile playing
about his mouth, "don't you think that
this is an almighty small crop of fight
to gather from such a big piece of
ground?"
Lincoln's humanity, his love of God's
creatures is charmingly told by "Mr.
Speed. There was a party riding to
gether, when Mr. Lincoln was missed:
We had passed through a thicket
of wild plum and crab trees, and
stopped to water our horses, when
Hardin came up alone. "Where is Lin
coln?" we all inquired. "Oh," replied
he, "when I saw him last he had
caught two young birds which the
wind had blown out of their nest, and
he has been hunting for the nest so as
to put them back." In a short time
Lincojn came' up, Having found tho
nest and placed the young birds in it.
The party laughed at him, but he said:
"I could not have slept If I had not re
stored those little birds to their
mother."
During the civil war there was
much fault found with the army chap
lains. On one occasion a delegation of
clerics of various denominations called
on the president, urging on him moro
discretion in the choice of chaplains.
Then tho president told tho reverend
body a neat little story which was as
follows:
Once in Springfield, 111., I was going
off on a short journey, and reached tho
depot a little ahead of time. Leaning
against the fence outside- tho station
was a little darky boy whom I knew,
named Dick, busily digging with his
toe in a mud puddle. As I came up, I
said: "Dick, what- aro you about?"
"Making a church," said he.
"A church ? said I. "What do you
mean?"
"Why yes," said Dick, pointing with
his toe. "Don't you see? There's tho
steps and there's the door, here's tho
pews where the folks sit, and there's
the pulpit."
"Yes, I see," said I. "But why don't
you make a minister?"
"Laws," answered Dick, with a grin,
" 'cause I hain't got mud enough."
The canteen cranks were possibly
horn lonar arro. After the battle of
Pittsburg Landing, "a self-constituted
committee of prohibitionists" annoyeu
the president with urgent requests for
the. removal of General Grant.
The president, greatly surprised, in
quired for what reason. "Why," re
plied the spokesman, "he drinks
whisky."
"Ah!" rejoined Lincoln, dropping his
lower jaw; "by the way, gentlemen,
can any one of you tell me where Gen
eral Grant procures his peculiar whis
ky, because if I can find out I will send
every general in the field a barrel of
it.''
At the conclusion of this interesting
volume there is to be found an ap
pendix, which, presents all the leading
events of the civil war arranged in
chronological order. From "Lincoln
in Story," by Silas G. Pratt.
