The first night found Lincoln up until after the
midnight hour reading by the glare of the burn
ing logs in the fireplace.
Many days after this found Lincoln attending
court at Boonville regularly. More often was he
found reading books in the private library OF
Mr. Breckenridge
The greater part of the Breckenridge library is
still in existence though some of the books are
torn and time-worn aid show that they have been
made brown before the blazes OF the open fresde
They owned by different lawyers in Boon
Vile and valued highly because they the
books read by the great president when he
resolved to study law
Upon one occasion Lincoln attended a murder
trial at Boonville and heard the case from begin
ming TO end. The trial seemed interesting to him,
but the most exciting feature of the whole case
was the argument before the jury The most elo-
quent plea and argument made by Kentucky
lawyer named Breckenridge. a kin to John A.
Breckenridge of Indiana. After his argument be-
fore the jury all of the prominent In the
room rose to congratulate him. Lincoln was in
the court room at the time and he anxious
to shake hands with the eminent jurist in appre
citation of his effort in behalf of his client
Lincoln pushed himself through the crowd up to
the attorney and when he stretched out his hand
to shake, Mr. Breckenridge pushed him aside and
shook hands with those whom he considered more
prominent Lincoln smtten by this act and
always remembered the of Breckenridge
the attorney from Kentucky.
Several years after, at the second Inauguration
OF Lincoln thousands of people greeted the great
war president. Hundreds of this number came
from Kentucky, and among the number was this
man Breckenridge Recognizing him at once as
the man who ignored him at Boonville several
years previous. Lincoln grasped the mans hand
with hearty shake and said:
Il am more than glad to you than any man
/ know of. | have always wanted to congratulate
you upon that speech you made at Boonville

Lincoln did not have to tell Breckenridge upon
that occasion he ignored him. when he
