ters were the subject of common re-
mark throughout the neighborhood.
One Of them married Dennis Hanks
and the other Levi Hall, or, as he is
better known, Squire Hall. cousin of
Abe. Both these women have given an
account Of him which shows that the
ties between them were of the stron-
gest and tenderest kind. But what is
most remarkable in their statements is
that they never opened their lips with
out telling how worthy of everybody's
love their mother was and how Abe re
vered her as much as they did. They

emplary women.
John D. Johnston, the only son of
Mrs. Lincoln, was not the best boy, and
did not grow to be the best man, in all
the Pigeon Creek region. He had no
positive vice except idleness and no
special virtue but good tempes. Mr.
Lincoln all through Johns life had
much trouble to keep him on his legs

presence of his sister and the opportu-
nifty it gave him of being in the COM
pany Of Mrs. Crawford, for whom he
had genuine attachment, for she was
nothing that her husband was and ev-
erything that he was not. According to
her account, he split rails, plowed,
thrashed and did whatever else he was
ordered to do, but she distinctly afirms
that "Abe was no hand to pitch. into
work like killing snakes" He went
about 1t calmly and generally took the
opportunity to throw Crawford down
two or three times before they went to
the field.
It is fair to presume that when Abe
managed to inveigle his disagreeable
employer into tussle he hoisted him
high and threw him hard, for he felt
that he had no reason to be careful of
his bones. After meals Abe hung
about, fingered long to gossip and joke
with the women; and these pleasant,
stolen conferences were generally bro
ken up with the exclamation, ''Well,
this won't buy the child coat" and
the long legged hired boy would stride
away to join his master.

woods from hunting, with their guns
on their shoulders, and go to church.
'Some of them dressed in deerskin
pants and moccaSins, hunting shirts,
with rope or leather strap around
them. They would come in laughing,
shake hands all around, sit down and
talk about the game they had killed
or some other work they had done and
smoke their pipes together with the old
ladies. If in warm weather, they would
kindle up little fire out in the meeting
house yard to light their pipes. If in
winter time, they would hold church in
some Of the neighbors' houses.
cat such times they were always
treated with the utmost kindness. A
bottle Of whisky, pitcher of water,
sugar and glass were set out, or bas-
ket of apples or turnips or some pies
and cakes. Apples were scarce them
times. Sometimes potatoes were used
as treat. must tell you that the first
treat I ever received in old Mr.. Lin
kerns house, that was our presidents
fathers house, was plate of potatoes
washed and pared very nicely and
handed round. 1t was something new
to me, for never had seen a raw po-
tato eaten before. I looked to see how
they made use of them. They took off
a potato and ate them like apples.
'"Thus they spent the time till time
for preaching to commence; then they
would all take their seats, the preach

open his shirt collar, commence service
by singing and prayer; take his text
and preach till the sweat would roll
off in great drops. Shaking hands and
singing then ended the service. The
people seemed to enjoy religion more
in them days than they do now. They
were glad to see each other and enjoy
ed themselves better than they do
now"

But this practice of preaching and
political speaking into which Abe had
fallen at length became a greet nui-
sance to his father. 1t distracted every
body, and sadly interfered with the
work. If Abe had confined his dis
courses to Sunday preaching, while the
old folks were away, it would not have
been so Objectionable But he knew his
power, liked to please everybody, and
would be sure to set up as an orator
wherever he found the greatest num-
ber Of people together.
When it was announced that Abe had
taken the stump" in the harvest field
there was an end Of work. The hands
flocked around him and listened to his
curious speeches with infinite delight.
1.-THE sight OF such thing amused all,
says Mrs. Lincoln, though she admits
that her husband was compelled to
break it up with the strong hand, and
poor Abe was many times dragged
from the platform and hustled off to
his work in no gentle manner.
Abe worked occasionally with his IA
ther in the shop, but he did it reluctant
ly. The rough work turned out at that
shop was far beneath his ambition, and
he had made up his mind to lead life
as wholly unlike his fathers as he
could possibly make it. He therefore
refused to be Il carpenter. But he could
not afford to be idle, and as soon as he
was able to earn wages he was hired
out among the neighbors. He worked
for many of them a few months at
time and seemed perfectly willing to
transfer his services wherever they
We're wanted, so that his father had no
excuse for prosecuting him with en-
treaties about learning to make tables
and cupboards.
ABE Linkerns" Wit.
Abe was now becoming a man and
was in fact already taller than any
man in the neighborhood. He was
universal favorite, and his wit and hu
NOR made him heartily welcome at ev-
cry cabin between the two Pigeon
creeks. Any family was glad when
"Abe Linkern" was hired to work with
them, for ne did his work well and
made them all merry while he was
about it. The women were especially
pleased, for Abe was not above doing
any kind of chores for them. He was
always ready to make a fire, carry wa
ter or nurse a baby. But what manner
of people were these among whom he
passed the most critical part of his
life? We must know them if we de-
sire to know him.
There lived in the neighborhood of
Gentryville a Mrs. Elizabeth Craw-
ford, wife to the Josiah with the sour
temper and the blue nose. Abe was
very fond of her and inclined to let
himself out In her company. We have
from her a great mass Of valuable and
sometimes extremely amusing infor-
nation. Among 1t is the following
graphic. although rude, account Of the
Pigeon Greek people In general:
I'VE thought 1t nothing to 60 eight

JAPS ARE INVADING INDIA.
They Are Fostering the Anti-Brttish
Movement


The St Petersburg Telegraph agen-
cy has received q dispatch from To-
kio saying that the anti-British move
ment in India is receiving much en-
couragement from Japan, where effort
is being made to foster feeling of
kinship between the two dark races
and to preach the lesson Of the Russo
japanese war. The Buddhists Of the
two countries are fraterniZing and ex-
changing visits and steps are being
taken to encourage the coming Of Hin
doc students to Japan, where they will
be surrounded by an atmosphere OF
disaffection.
The Hindoo students now in Toxic,
the correspondent Of the agency con-
tinues, have just published an address
in which they appeal to India to heed
the call Of Asia for the Asiatics" and
to rise and cast off the British yoke.
Taking advantage Of this ferment, GER
tain merchants of Japan have sent
mission to India to endeavor to sup
plant the boycotted British merchan-
disc with Japanese goods. These eff
forts are meeting with a warm well
come.
