FOR FOUL ISLANDER.

There is a publication in book form
relating TO the parentage OF Abraham
Lincoln--which was surreptitiously and
meagerly circulated a number Of years
ago. 1t tells in weird sort of way
that the father of Lincoln was some
other than Thomas Lincoln--and that
the mother OF that great American
was not the good and pure woman she
had the reputation OF being. This
story has been repeated time and time
again. The slandermongers have re-
joiced to tell it. not that they wished
in doing so to rob the name Of Nancy
Hanks Lincoln Of it's purity--but to
cast aspersion on a man they did not
like. They hated Abraham Lincoln,
and in order to dim the increasing
luster of his splendid name they have
In stealth whispered this slanderous
story Of the woman who bore him.
1t is to the credit Of the people of this
country that they not only discredit
the miserable falsehood-but they de-
spise the authors and carriers of the
SANDER.
AT Frankfort, KY, at the unwilling
Of the bronze statue of Abraham Lin
coln-when President Taft, Governor
Wilson and Colonel watterson deliv-
cred addresses-the latter, In present
ing the statue, made defense of Nancy
Hanks Lincoln. He refuted the foul
SANDER that has been whispered about
her. He spoke as only the great and
gifted orator, journalist and statesman
can speak. He spoke with fervor and
eloquence and truth, saying:
Shall that throng pass down the
hillside and away without looking into
the Heaven above in unutterable love
and homage, with the thought of a
spirit there which knew in this world
naught Of splendor and power and
fame; whose sad lot it was to live and
die in obscurity, struggle, almost In
penury and squalor; whose tragic fate
IT was after she had lain half life
time In her humble. unmarked grave
to be pursued by the deepest,
darkest calumny that can attach itself
to the name OF woman; the hapless
the fair haired Nancy Hanks?
No falser, fouler story ever gained
currency than that which impeaches
the character OF the mother of Abra-
ham Lincoln. 1t never had any foun-
dation whatsoever. Every known fact
fatty contradicts 1t. Every aspect of
circumstantial evidence stamps it a
preposterous lie.
Those who revere the name of Nancy
Hanks Lincoln for the son she gave to
the country-and those who hate and
despise the Islander of envious tongues
will rejoice over the defense Of that
good woman and the rebuke to her
slanderers which the venerable editor
has so aptly and so eloquentIy made.
In future years when the calumny
shall have been revived, the great
Kentuchian--tnough he may have long
been gathered to his fathersAwill be
witness, as he is now, to speak for
the sanctity-the purity-and the hon
or Of the noble mother of a noble son.
