THE BIRTHDAY Of LINCOLN.
A Century Has Passed Since the Great States
man Was Born-Some Short Notes.

One hundred years ago today
Abraham Lincol n, by many
thought to be the greatest states
man who has ever risen from the
ranks of the common people to
the highest Office that could be
given by man, was born in an
humble house. Whether or not
we, as a people, agreed with this
great man in some of his ideas,
we are bound to acknowledge
that he was a true man in every
sense of the word. In commem-
Grafton of his memory we give
today a couple of articles con
corning his life which were writ
ten by people who knew him
personally in the state of Illinois,
articles that appeared in the
home paper of the town in which
the writer lived and which recite
some very entertaining points in
the life and character of the great
Abe Lincoln.
