Abraham L,nooln's Opinion 5ot Ham
From the Lancaster Intelligencer.

From the Lancaster Intelligencer.e
Mr.. James McDuqal, O lumber mer-
chant Of Baltimore, of high respectability,
and one of the genial class of Springs
visitors, who become generally known and
popular. Mr.. McDugal has been an
ardent Republican. demoniac condition
he reached after starting in life as an Old
Line Wing and passing thence through
the purgatory of Douglas Democracy. Mr..
McDugal lost forty Thousand and some odd
dollars by the rebellion. q circumstance
which may account for some of his bitter
ness against the rebels. They say he
was in danger of being lynehed in the
unpatriotic atmosphere of Baltimore in
the earlier days Of the rebellion, a fact
which | can readily believe, for he is
plain language. and has no disposition to
check their overflow. He told me some
thing that you will be glad to hear and
which am surprised that we never read
before.
When Mr. Lincoln issued the Emanci-
patton Proclamation-I believe that was
the occasion-a deputation of citizens from
Baltimore went to Washington to congrat-
ulate him. Mr.. MoDugal was one of
their number. They speedily got through
with their address ct the White House,
and were about to leave, with the declara-
ton that they would not further trespass
upon the presidents valuable time.
Take seats. boys. take s!"exclaim-
ed Mr.. Lincoln. as he raug for chairs to
be brought in. 1t would be strange If /
could not spare q half hour or an hour for
conversation with friends who have come
from Baltimore to see me-"
The visitors sat down and spent nearly
an hour in conversation. Presently the
subject of Generals came up, and various
opinions were expressed as to who was the
ablest officer on our side When a great
many opinions had been given, Mr.. Lin
coin said:
Gentlemen, in my Judgment you have
not struck the right man yet
And of course all were anxious &c
hear him name the man, and asked him e
do so.
1t is Gen. Hancock
The countenances of his visitors ex
pressed their surprised. and one of then
ventured to say that he feared Hancock
was too rash.
Yes, said MIR. Lincoln. so some of tn.
elder Generals have said to me, and VIZ
have said to them, that have watched
Gen. Hauccck's conduct very carefully
and have found that when be goes into
action be achieves his purpose and come.
out with a smaller list of casualties thar
any of them. Bold he is. but not rash
Why. gentleman. do you know what hi
record was at West Point?'
And Mr.. Lincoln went to his book shelf
and taking down an army register showed
the position iu which Hancock had era-
duated. and that Furthermore, 10 a class
that was one of the most DISTINGUISHED
that had ever graduated at the Military
Academy. Continuing to speak of him in
the highest terms. he further said:
L tel you gentlemen, that if his life
and strength are spared, | believe thai
Gen. Hancock is destined to be one Of
the most distinguished men of the age
Why. when go down in the morning tc

been killed or wounded.

During the severe storm on wednesday

that something had been struck. Investi

lightning having struck MOI IT'S Fourth

through the roof, making gap. and
afterwards scattering in all directions.
The upper part of the rear building was

The back widows was torn from the

Death of Charles Fabian.

Charles Fabian, one of the oldest citi-
gems of Moline died very suddenly on
Wednesday morning, and an inquest was
held by Coroner Morris. resulting in the
following verdict:
I'VE as jurors. on our oath. do find that
Charles Fabian came to his death BY inter-
nal hemorrhage, caused by an accidental
fall at Iimm's bar room on the night of
Aug. "a, 1880.
(Slgned) A. P. FISK, Foreman,
HENRY SCHUMACHER,
b. G. FORWARD,
r, @, BOYD,
III. HARDWOOD,
+. G. WERLICH,
It appeared from the evidence that Mr..
Fabian had been at Capt Timm's saloon,
at 9 o'clock and in getting up from a chair
slipped his foot, and being very stout, fell
very heavily. A general laugh followed
which Charlie" as he was Familiarity
called. joined in, and then he went out and
sat down for few minutes. Capt, Timm
testified,
II was sitting on the outside of my
saloon when Mr.. Fabian fell; heard him
fall and went in and saw him in the act of
rising; there was a general laugh at his
expense, in which he joined. as no one
thought that he was hurt. He then went
outside and sat upon a chair and engaged
10 conversation with Messrs, Shaw and
Weese, telling of bis fall, lie talked with
them some fifteen minutes. and then
asked for soda, and noticed that his
voice was weak. Shortly after this he
arose to go home with MIR, Miller, and
noticed that he appeared TO be quite weak,
and learned against the house for support.
Then he walked away. Shortly after this
Mr., Miller came back and asked for assis~
lance. Mr.. Snyder and my bar keeper
went to help Mr.. Miller. After closing
my place of business | went down toward
Mr.. Fabian's and met one of his daughters,
who told me that the doctors had given
Der father up"
The others corroborated Capt. Timm' s
statement and a verdict in accordance was
rendered,
On Wednesday afternoon the remains
were inferred in Riverside cemetery. the
Turner's society taking charge of the
body. He held an insurance policy for
$1,000 in the Connecticut Mutual, and at
time Of bis death was about SIS years old.
He came to this country in ls4s sett-
ling 10 New York, and engaged in the
cabinet maker business, and at one time
was we'll to do. He was a fine tenor
singer when younger. and used to sing in
the leading Episcopal churches of New
York city. His wife was also an accom-
plished singer.
In 1855 he came to Moline and has
lived there ever since. He accumulated
a goodly amount CT property. but was
unfortunate and lost most of it in the last
ten years. He was one of those big
hearted men. and was ready to help
friend even though he suffered great
inconvenience to do so. In this way Mr..
Fabian lost a good deal of money mostly
from Endorsement, and also lost heavy
sums by injudicious investments. For the
past few years he has been keeping
boarding house in Moline, and was friend
ly to every one. Few men had larger
number Of friends than he. and none but
will sympathize with the family in their
bereavement.
