ABRAH AM LINCOLN'S TOWN

We do not want any reader to miss
the unusually interesting article en-
titled Rebuilding New Salem, H.,
Honest Abe's Town, 1S3l-37," that
appears on another page of this is
sue. New Salem, on the Sangamon
river, near Springfield, was settled in
1928, and was abandoned in lS45. 1t
is now being restored in facsimile for
state park. Lincoln arrived there
in 1881, "a stranger, friendless, un-
educated, penniless boy" as he him
self put it. In 1897 he left to prac-
tice law in Springfield. 1t was dur
ing those six momenttous years that
he earned his nickname of Honest
Abe; that he studied grammar and
law; that he was clerk and store
keeper, deputy. surveyor and postmas-
ter; that he served as a captain in
the Black Hawk war; that he was de-
feated for the legislature and later
elected: that he wooed and won and
lost by death Ann Rutledge; that he
transformed himself from "a quaint
knight-errant of the pioneers to a
man who gave promise of becoming
"a masterpiece of God" You will find
this article about the rebuilding of
the historic pioneer town well worth
reading.

policies"
