Those who saw mach OF Abraham Lincoln
during the iatsr years OF his life, were great
ly impressed with the expression OF pro-
found melancholy his face always wore Ia
repose.
ic and kindly nature These strong charms
teristics Influenced, very happily as 1t
proved, his entire political career. They
would not seem, mt FIRST glance. to DO en-
cient aids TO political Successor but in the
peculiar emergency which Lincoln, in the
providence of God, was called to meet No
vessel OF common clay could possibly have
become the ''chosen of the Lord"
Those acquainted with him from boy1ood
knew that early griefs tinscd his whole
life with sadness. His partner in the
grocery business At Salem, was "Uncle''
Billy Green, OF Taiiu1a, H., who used at
night, when the customers were few, to
hold the grammar while Anceia recited hie
lessons
1t was to his sympathetic car Lincoln told
the story of his love for sweet Ann Rut-
ledge; and he, in return offered what cum
fort he could when poor Ann died, and Lin
coins great heart nearly broke.
''After Ann died." says "Uncle' Billy,
"on stormy nights, when the wind blew the
rain against the roof, Abe would set thar in
the grocery, his elbows on his knees, his
face in his hands, and the tears runnin'
through his fingers. hated to see him feel
bad, an I'd say, Abe don't cry;' an he
look up an say 4 can't help 1t, Bill, the
rains a faliin' on her.''
There are many who can 9ympathize With
this overpowering grief, as they think OF g
lost loved one, when 1.-THE rains a faiiin' on
her." What adds poignancy to the grief
some times Is the thought that the lost one
might have been saved
