minished his love and respect for the
brother from whom he differed. In the
hour of q triumph that would have
turned any weaker mans head, in the
heat of struggle which spurred many
good man to dreadful vindictiveness, he
said truthfully that SO long as he had
been in his Office he had never willingly
planted thorn in any mans bosom,
and besought his supporters to study the

were passing as philosophy from which
to learn wisdom and not as wrongs to be

should reunite in a common effort to save
their common country.

"FIe lived in days that were great and
terrible, when brother fought against
brother for what each sincerely deemed
to be the right. In contest SO grim

through are rarely able to do Justice

back to the hearts that were hurt. But
Lincoln was given this supreme vision.
He did not hate the man from whom he
differed. Weakness was as foreign as
wicked to his strong, gentle nature; but
his courage was of a quality so high
that it needed no bolstering of dark pas
sion. He saw clearly that the same
high qualities, the same courage, and
willingness for self-sacrifce, and devo-
ton to the right as it was given them to
see the right, belonged both to the men
of the north and to the men Of the south.
AS the years roll by, and as all of us.
wherever we dwell, grow to feel an
equal pride in the valor and self-devo-
ton, alike of the men who wore the blue
and the men who wore the gray, SO this
whole nation will grow to feel a peculiar
sense of pride in the mightiest of the
mighty men who mastered the mighty
days; the lover of his country and of all
mankind; the man whose blood was shed
for the union of his people, and for the
freedom Of race, Abraham Lincoln"

In making this food all the food ele-
