STIRRING PICTURE OF
HIS PLACE IN HISTORY
Lincoln Depicted as Heroic figure by
Rev. y. G. Rollins in sermon nj First
Methodist Church.

In a highly %eulogistic address OF
Lincoln. the Man" last night at tho
First Methodist church, Rev. j. C
Rollins followed the president from
his birth and early struggles through
the immense tragedy of the Civil Wan
and in glowing phraseology painted
the lofty heroism of the man during
one of the greatest crises which even
confronted any country.
DR.. Rollins declared that Lincoln's
place in American history will grow
steadily, more commanding and not
for many years yet will the perspec-
tive allow of a full estimate of his
greatness. Regarding his personal
qualities, DR.. Rollins said in part:
Himself 4 son of toll, he was linked
in %brotherly sympathy with the sons
of toll everywhere. In the after years
the trust which Abraham Lincoln had
in himself and the people was amaz-
ing, but at once enlightened and we'll
founded. The American people learned
o much better he knew them than
they knew themselves.
Born a natural leader, he COM
PEELED his environment to minister to
his discipline and training. The i'm
portance of detail was never over
looked-the n never-lacking charac-
teristic of a great soul. Far from be-
ing sectional, he was in the best
sense, national. The finest product
of the western world, Lincoln's states
manship may be reckoned the broad
est and most virile OF the century in
which he lived, if indeed. not the most
comprehensive in its grasp, of any
period Of u national life.
The future of a mighty nation in
the making was ever in the present.
while he graspcd the correlated facts
ana truths of the expanding life Of a
giant people.
In qualities Of heart Lincoln COM
mands the esteem and confidence Of
all time. He was intensely human.
Tolerant to a degree unexpected in a
public man, his Kindness and gentle
ness clothe him about with real great
ness and with garments more radiant
than any other who has lived in the
light of public scrutiny. during our
history.
His sympathy for those in dis
tress may never be overlooked.
Though absorbed with the solution of
world wide problems he would turn
aside to perform some deed of per-
sonal kindness. Even in the hot temp
est of civil war when individual life
counted for so little he could find
ume to pardon the youth found sleep
ing, from sheer exhaustion, while ON
duty, and indicated his course by

That President Lincoln in addition
to his personal integrity had that
somewhat rare trait of honesty in
politics was pointed ont by the Rev.
Hugh A. Cooper in q strong sermon
i'm the Presbyterian church yester-
day morning. Rev. MIR. Cooper
in his address also laid stress on
Lincoln dependence on divine power
for guidance and comfort, notwith-
standing the persistent tradition that
he was q "skeptic.' Regarding the
first mentioned phase Of the presi-
dents character Mr.. Cooper said:
He was honest in more thar money

He was undor control Of no political

Of the excitement. a message came
over the wires from his friends, that
in order to win the victory over
Seward it would b. necessary to
promise certain cabinet positions to
leaders of Stewards delegations. The

the emphatic message. II authorize

nominated on the fourth ballot He
took no part in the campaign that
followed. on the evening after the
election as he left his home he told
his wife that he might be out late,
At first the returns were discourage
ing. but about 10 O'Clock there was
no longer doubt hat he was elected.
He excused himself from his friends,
saying that there was a little woman
down home that was perhaps more
concerned for the results than he was.
He went home and found his wife
sound asleep. He touched her and
said, Mary. Mary, We're elected"

that no human being might sustain
without divine assistance, Lincoln re-

"A democrat, stanton was appointed.
Lincoln, in reality belongs to no
party. In one SENSE he was the
founder of the republican party. He
endorsed its principles and worked
for its success. But he was too great
a man to be a mere partisan. He
was like Washington. We do not
think Of Washington as a party man
but as q patriot. The very names.
Washington and Lincoln, arouse sem
