Abraham Lincoln's Substitute.

During the earlier days of the war it
seems to have been the desire of all
prominent men in Washington to have
a representative in tie ranks, and Lin
coin was no exception 10 the rule. At
that time there was a minister named
Staples in Washington, one of whose
sons, then aged nineteen, had a desire
to go to the front. Lincoln heard of
him and, after a conference, selected
him as his representative, and he prov
ed worthy, for he Won honor on the
field. He survived the war and finally
died in Stroudsburg, Pa. The inscrip-
ton on the stone over his grave reads
as follows: 81. Summerfeld Staples,
a private of Company C, One Hundred
and Seventy-sixth regiment, P. v; also
a member of the Second regiment, D.
G. volunteers, as substitute of Abra-
ham Lincoln"
