HOW Lincoln Worked.

In Harper's for December w. H.
Crook, who was Lincoln's bodyguard,
gives a dramatic picture of Lincoln in
wartime. He pictures one of the
ievees at the White House and then:
The levee was supposed to be over
at eleven, but some people remained
until nearly twelve. After they had
all left. Mr.. Lincoln wrapped himself
in the rough gray shawl he usually
wore out-of-doors. put on his tall
beaver hat and slipped out of the
White House through the basement
A according. to my orders followed him
and was alone with President Lincoln
for the first time.
I'VE crossed the garden, which lay
where the executive offices are now.
Mr.. Lincoln was bent on his nightly
visit to Secretary Stanton at the war
department. 1 stole a glance up at
above me. The strength of 1t is not
lessened In my memory by what would
seem to me now the grotesque setting
of rough shawl and silk hat.
THAT night, as 1 said, 1 was little
nervous. The president noticed it. He
seemed to know how I felt, too. I had
fallen into line behind him. but he mo-
toned me to walk by his side. He be-
gan to talk to me in a kindly way, as
though I were a bashful boy whom he
wanted to put at his ease, instead of a
man appointed to guard him. In part.
of course, his motive must have been
the dislike of seeming to be guarded,
of which ] have spoken. But his man.
ner was Cue to the intuitive sympathy
With every one, of which aftarward
saw so many instances. 1t was shown
particularly toward those who were
subordinate to him. The statesmen
had 1t in their power to influence the
policy of the party which had chosen
him, never had the consideration from
Mr.. Lincoln that he gave the humblest

accompanied him back to the White

the feeling which came then that
while the president was so great he
was my friend. The White House never
