Phelim Murphy was a Connaught
man who went to Dublin in search of
work, and during his first nights stay
in the city he put up at a lodging house
having bow window in front.
Phelim was up before daylight in
the morning, and, cropping around the
room in the dark he came on what he
thought must be the door so, opening
it, one step brought him out ON the
window sill, and the next deposited
him on his shoulder and ear on the
ground six feet below.
After recovering somewhat from the
effects of his fall, he CALCULATED;

Through his efforts q furnace was

water tumbled over the rocks to the

Although Massachusetts was sparse

LINES ON LINCOLN.

Look on this cast and know the hand
That bore a nation in Its hold.
From this mute witness understand
What Lincoln was-how large Of
mold.
The man who sped the woodlands
team,
And deepest sunk the plowman's
share,
And pushed the laden raft astream,
OF fate before him unaware.
This was the hand that knew to swing
The ax-since thus would Freedom
train
Her son-and made the forest ring,
And drove the wedge and tolled
amain.
Firm hand, that loftier office took,
A conscious leaders will Obeyed,
And when men sought his word and
look,
With steadfast might the gathering
swayed.
No courtier's toying with the sword,
Nor minstrels laid across the lutte;
A chiefs, uplifted to the Lord
When all the kings Of earth were
mute.
What better than this voiceless cast
To tell of such one as he,
Since through its living semblance
passed
The thought that babe a race be free

sands of Puritans were ready to leave
England for ever.
Many Of the people of Norfolk and
Lincoln counties had sailed for Massa-
chusetts; others were ready to join
them. The ships, Rose and the John,
and Dorothy, were at yarmouth, pre-
pairing to sail. Francis Lawes resolv-
ed to become an emigrant, and 1t seems
probable that Samuel Lincoln was
ready to join his brother, who had set
tied in bingham, near Boston. We see
them travelling across the meadows and
lowlands, with others, to Yarmouth
town. Together the ships sail across
the Atlantic, to drop their anchors in
Salem Harbor.
1t is probable that Samuel Lincoln,
for lack of wool, did not do much weav-
ing in the town Of Ipswich, where his
master settled
The only sheep in Massachusetts
were few which were pastured on the
islands in Boston harbor, where the
wolves could not get at them.
When the apprentice became of age
he Joined his brother Thomas in Hing
ham. He had learned trade; 1t is
not certain that he followed it, but
probably he became a farmer. A maid
en- named Martha became his wife; her
parental name is not known. Their chill
dren were Samuel, Daniel, Mordecai,
Mary, Martha, Sarah and Rebecca.
Startling news came that the Indians
were numbering the settlers Of Swan
zey. 1t was the beginning Of the war
with the Pequos, under their chief,
Philip, Samuel, the Oldest son, seized
his fathers gun and powder horn and
became soldier. A year passed, in
which more than six hundred of the
settlers were killed; but the chief was
! dead, and his head was hanging on a
gibbet in Plymouth. The captured In
dams were sold as slaves to the Span
iards.
Mordecai Lincoln, the while, was
blowing the bellows and making the
anvil ring in a blacksmiths shop
When he became of age he set up his
own forge in Hull. Perhaps Sarah
Jones may have influenced him in set
Ting there, for she soon became his
wife.
The year 1886 was a memorable one
to the blacksmith, for a son was born
to him-Mordecai, junior. Just before
his birth the frigate Rose sailed into
Boston harbor, bringing Sir Edmund
Andres, who had been appointed gov
ernor of Massachusetts, Plymouth
Rhode Island and Connecticut. He
had brought over two companies OF
troops to aid him in upsetting the
government of the people. 1t seems
that Mordecai Lincoln could look from
his shop door and see the frigate run
ming out its guns and firing salute
and the cannon Of the castle replying
James II. had determined to overthrow
the Puritan commonwealth. The peo-
pie were no longer to assemble in
town meeting or make their own laws
We may be sure that the farmers who
came to have their horses shod or their
ploughshares sharpened, or fishermen
who wanted work done, expressed their
minds freely upon public affairs, and
that the blacksmith had something to
say while making the anvil ring by
his sturdy blows. Three years passed.

Judge and member of the Provincial
assembly. Hannah's uncle, Captain
John, Bower, was rich. He remembered
Hannah Salter Lincoln in his will, CIV
ing her f250. Her husband was Sc
greatly esteemed that in title-deeds he
was styled gentleman" He was
thrifty, and purchased several hun
bred acres of land. He wanted more,
and visited the valley of the Schuylkill,
in Pennsylvania to see for himself
whether or not the lands there were as
fertile and beautiful as reported. He
was SO we'll pleased that he resolved
to become citizen Of Pennsylvania,
and remove to Amity township.
It seems conclusive that John did moi
go with his father, but remained in
Freehold, and married there. 1t was
on the Schuylkill that the Llncolns,
Hanks and Boone families became as.
ISOLATED. When Mordecai Lincoln died
he left George Boone, father OF the
more celebrated Daniel Boone, TO look
after his will. The lands were equally
divided between the sons, Mordecai,
Jr., Thomas, John and Abraham. John
and Thomas Lincoln later went to
Virginia. The Boones moved to
marlborough, N. G. The Hanks fam.
lily also moved farther west. This was
about 174S. France had just driven
England out of Canada and the Ameri.
can colonies were beginning to feel un.
rest.
Daniel Boone explored Kentucky, and
thither followed the Lincolns and
Hankses. Abraham, son of Mordecai
Lincoln, married Mary Shipley before
pushing into the wilderness Of the ter.
ritory. They had three children, Nor.
decai, Thomas and Josiah. Thomas
Lincoln grew up and married Nancy
Hanks. They settled in log cabin al
Elizabethtown. Here Sarah Lincoln
was born to them. Later they moved
to Rock Spring, where ON February
u, 1909, he who was destined to be-
come one Of the grandest men of his.
tory was born-Abraham Lincoln.

Romans made themselves masters
of England they built castle on
the to D of a hill that Overlooks
the town and changed the name
to Lincoln. In the course Of years 1t
became the name of family, possibly
there we're several families bearing the
name in Norfolk and Lincoln coun-
ties.
We know that one such family had
its home in bingham, and that Sam
uel Lincoln was an infant on that when
the Pilgrims, in December, 1920, es-
tablished government Of the people in
America. We also know that there
was an older brother, Thomas; but it is
not certain that we shall ever learn
much about their parents. 1t seems
probable that they were obliged to
work hard to obtain living for them
selves and children. We may conclude
that their home was cottage, thatch-
ed with straw. We may think of the
brothers as playing in the streets, or
going in to the green fields and gather
ing daisies, listening to the larks and
nightingales. They could look across
the meadows and see the tall spire Of
Norwich Cathedral, and in the hush
and stiffness hear the great bell send
ing forth its music.
Quite likely they heard their parents
Gov that King lanes had died and that
his son, Charles l., was king. Then the
talk was about troublesome times. The
king maintained that he was ordained
by God to rule the Nation and that it
was the duty of the people to obey.
The bishop preached that the king
could do no wrong. Charles wanted
money and levied taxes without con-
sulting parliament. The Puritans who
would not pay, together with those who
would not accept the ritual prepared
by the bishop, were arrested so many
times that the Jail and the Guildhall in
Norwich were filed. When the Off
GERS undertook to collect the tax in
Lincoln the people pelted them with
stones. The Puritans all over England
were resisting the demands of the
king. Possibly it was the desire of
Charles to get rid Of them that led him
to grant charter for government. Of
their own in America. The persecution
Of the bishop and the arbitrary acts Of
the king made life so bitter that thou
