much of the directness, truthiulrcss
and simplicity OF childhood. He was
just what he seemed There was no
pretense with him, no hypocrisy. One
reason he was.so beloved was becaus
of his kindness of heart. He was never
too busy to be kind That is why his
country mourned so bitterly when the
sssassins' bullet cut him down.
When he lived IN Springfield he was
for timesquite poor, as many a young

to his office he saw a little girl CRYING

she never forgot him. Who could for
