A New Lincoln Anecdote.

The following anecdote is vouched for
by the editor of Leslie's Monthly. who
has II from a very old lady Mrs. II. A.
Baldwin. now living in Los Angeles. Cal,
VINO was close neighbor of the Lincoln
family when they resided in Springfield
ILL., Il can remember clearly a little in
cident which occurred one very hot Sun
day morning In summer. 1t was lust
about the time Mr.. Lincoln had received
the nomination for senator. My husband
had gone to church alone that morning
as ! was not feeling Well ] was sitting
at the window looking out on the street
when esped little Tad Lincoln trotting
down the walk past our house as fast
as his little legs would carry him. He
was between two and three years Of age
at that time, and was the sharpest lit
tie chap imaginable. His father had
nicknamed him 'Tadpole,' soon shortened
to Tad as all the neighbors knew.
Mrs. Lincoln had gone TO church.
leaving the children at home in charge
Of Mr.. Lincoln, and the little fellow had
escaped from the yard in some way or
other As I watched Tad trotting
past ! heard some one calling him from
mp the street. CHANGING up, / saw Mr.
Lincoln coming as fast as his long legs
could carry him. As have said. it was an
exceedingly warm day. and people
were wearing their thinnest clothes. As
long as l live l shall never forget Mr.
Lincoln's appearance. lie was coatless.
vestless. bareheaded and barefooted!
Think of it, The man who was later to
be president of the United States, actual
~ striding down the street baretooted!
after his runaway child! 1t was the
most comical sight / have ever witnessed.
Tad was soon overtaken. and Mr.. Lin
coin grasping his rebellious son around
the waist, tucked him under his long arm
like "A sack of meal with his head to the
rear, and started for home again. I'm
fortunately church services had just
closed. and the streets We're crowded
with people, fashionably dressed, who
stared in establishment and merriment
upon the comcal sight. Little Tad was
screaming, kicking and squirming in a
vain attempt to escape. His little arms
and legs were revolving in all directions,
and the sight of Mr.. Lincoln, barefooted
