Week Here June the Fifth to the Ninth, 1911
Mrs. Long Entertains

Tuesday afternoon Mrs. C. P.
Long received a large number of
friends in honor of her guest,
Mrs. Wardlow, of Chattanooga,
Tenn. Two dainty little maidens,
Misses Clara Belle Wilson and
Olivia Long, received the cards
and invited the guests into the
hall. The lovely home was made
even more beautiful by profuse
decorations of ferns, Dorothy
Perkins roses and sweet peas.
Receiving with Mrs. Long were
Mesdames Wardlow, Perry,
Hutchinson, Holden and Cavett.
Mrs. Pearl Long, Mrs. George
Mitchell and Mrs. S. d. Wilson
ushered the guests into the din
ing room which was a bower of
greenery studded with pink ro-
ses. Delicious cream and cake
were served. A q~uartette of
charming young ladies', Misses
Linda Kincannon, Dale and Hoyt
Raymond and Nancy Cavett, pre-
sided in this room
Most delicious fruit punch was
served from a fower-decked
table in the hall by Miss Julia
Miller Long and Miss Josephine
Gentry.
The fresh foliage and highly
colored flowers made a suitable
background for the pretty toll
cites worn, and the affair proved
to be one of the prettiest, as
well as most enjoyable, of the
season.

Abraham Lincoln's grandfather. also

1880. Samuel Lincoln C619-1G90), the
presidents first American ancestor.
was a son of Edward Lincoln of Hing
ham, Norfolk. England. who e~migrated
to Massachusetts in 1857 as apprentice
to a weaver. His son and grandson
were iron founders. The grandson.
Mordecai u%6S6-1736). moved to Penn
sylvania. 1t is not ~discoverable wheth-
er the Lincolns were distinguished in
any way. but it is certain that they
possessed little wealth. The 'Diction-
airy of National Biography" British)
has no record of them unless they are
descendants of or connected with the
earls of Lincoln.
Abraham Lincoln's grandfather was
a friend of Daniel Boone. He was kill
ed by Indians in Kentucky in 1874.
He had a small farm in that state.
Lincoln's Uncle Mordecai was a mem
Der of the Kentucky legislature, and
tradition gives him the reputation Of
an honorable and influential citizen.

While a number Of leading men took
an active interest about the Lincoln
headquarters. David Davis was the
business man in charge" and made
all the negotiations"
Seward was the leading candidate
at Chicago on the night before the bal
loting began.
Seward led on the first ballot, closely
followed by Lincoln On the second
ballot Lincoln gained amazingly. and
at the conclusion of the third roll call
he had 231h votes. a vote and a half
short of the 233 necessary to nominal
ton. At that moment Delegate Carter
Of Ohio arose and switched four votes
from Chase to Lincoln. A cannon

was held. doomed the news Of Lin

0N May 10, 1860. Abraham Lin
coin was nominated for the
presidency in the Republican
national convention in Chicago.
A few days before this tremendous
event Lincoln had been unable to find
a seat in the Republican state onven
ton at Decatur. ILL.,. and had conse-
quently remained on the outside until
Dick Ogiesby called attention to the
fact that Lincoln was not present.
Oglesby said:
Il am informed that a distinguished
son of Illinois and one whom Illinois
n l wish to move that this body in
wife him to a seat on the stand"
The motion was carried with a shout.
and a rush was made for him where he
stood near the door, and before he was
conscious Of what was intended he was
taken bodily and passed forward over
the heads of the dense throng to the
speakers platform. smiling, but a good
deal ruffled.
A little later on Oglesby said:
There is an old Democrat outside
who has something which he wishes to
present to this convention
Receive itr' shouted the throng of
delegates. So the doors were opened.
and in walked John Hanks. bearing on
his shoulder two rough fence rails.
from which rose a banner inscribed,
1.-TWO Rails From a Lot Made by
Abraham Lincoln and John Hanks. In
the Sangamon Bottoms. In the Year
1890"
He was received with yells of de-
light. followed by shouts for a speech
from Lincoln. who rose somewhat diff
fdently and said:
Gentlemen. l suppose you want to
know something about these rails.
Well, It is quite true that John Hanks
and / did make rails in the Sangamon
bottom. | don't know whether we
made these particular rails or not. The
fact is. | do not think they are a credit
to the makers. But ! do know this
that l made rails then and think that
1 can make better ones than these
now
After all this skillfully worked up
enthusiasm the following resolution.
offered by John NJ. Palmer. was pass
ed by the convention:
abraham Lincoln is the first choice
of the Republican party of Illinois for
president. and the delegates from this
state to the Chicago convention are in
structed to use all honorable means to
secure his nomination and to cast the
vote of the state as a unit for him."
Historians do not exactly agree that
Lincoln had set his ambition on this
nomination. Herndon a Y that he
was ambitious and that he did every
thing known to practical politics and
within his means to secure ii.
Though Lamon does not dispute
Herndon's conclusions as to Lincoln's
ambition, he says in his life Of the
Great Liberator that Lincoln was at
Decatur as a mere spectator and ap-
pears to have had no notion that any
business relating to him was to be
transacted that day"

friends made with Simon Cameron Of

Fl. Seward. secretary of state in
Lincoln's cabinet, told how Lin
coin came to write his immortal Get
tysburg address. The letter reads:
Cast in bronze on a tablet in the
Gettysburg National cemetery, ada
cent to one carrying the words of Lin
coins Gettysburg address, are the
words of a letter written by Judge Will
of that town in his capacity of chair
man of a committee having in charge
the dedication of what is now the Ma
tional cemetery and reads as follows:
The several states having soldiers in the
Army of the Potomac who were killed at
the battle of Gettysburg or have since
died at the various hospitals which were
established in the vicinity ave procured
grounds on a prominent part of the bat
tlefield for a cemetery and are having the
dead removed to them and properly
buried.
These grounds will be consecrated and
set apart to this sacred purpose on Thurs
day, the 18th inst. 1t is the desire that
you, as chief executive of the nation.
formally set apart these grounds to their
sacred use by a few appropriate remarks.

dead who are now in the tented field or
nobly meeting the foe in the front a con-
fidence that they who sleep in death on
