Abe himself freely participated. Mrs. Lincon being op
posed to such dongs told Abraham the story goes
that if guard was necessary, he should get gentlemen
around him, and if he did not order those ruans off,
she would have it done herself and, moreover, sooner
than have them around her, if guard necessary,
she would prefer standing sentinel herself Jim Lane
