Abraham Lincoln.

Eco. Y, lS09, Feb. II. 1896.
As some lone mountain peak upreared on high,
Bears silent witness to the day and night
OF Titans struggling In primeval night,
Standing monument while ages fly.
So in that worse than elemental strife
Shaking the continent from shore TO shore
With battle shock, and wars tumultuous roar,
Our martyred Lincoln rose to endless life.
Fragrant as flowers in June, or new mown hay,
Remains the memory Of his peerless name;
The noblest record ON our scroll of fame,
Shining more glorious still from day TO day.
Safe as an eagles brood within It's nest,
Hidden from harm, and swiftly growing strong
Or like remembered joys of love or song
Lives Lincoln's image, in ColumbiR's breast.
-Frank L. Phdlen in the Concord Monitor OF
Feb. II.

and a change of ministry will result.
