CHAPTER XVI.

Wherein Young Mr.. Lincoln Safely
Passes Two Great Danger Points
and Turns Into the Highway Of His
Manhood.
For days thereafter the people of
New Salem were sorely troubled. Abe
Lincoln, the ready helper In time Of
need, the wise counselor, the friend of
all-"Old and young, dogs and horses"
as Samson was wont to say-the pride
and hope of the little cabin village,
was breaking down under his grief.
He seemed to care no more for work
or study or friendship. He wandered
out In the woods and upon the praiSles
alone. Many feared that he would
lose his reason.
There was a wise and merry-hearted
man who lived a mile or 80 from the
village. His name was Bowlin Green.
Those days when one of middle age
had established himself In the affec-
lions of a community, its members had
a way of adopting him. So Mr.. Green
had been adopted into many families
from Beardstown to Springfield, He
was everybody's "Uncle Bowlin." He
had a most unusual circumference and
the strength to carry it. His rudy
cheeks and curling locks and kindly
dark eyes and large head were details
Of importance. Under all were heart
with the love Of men, mind Of un-
usual understanding and hand
skilled In all the arts of the Kentucky
pioneer. He could grill a venison
steak and roast a grouse and bro!l
chicken In a way which had filed the
countryside with fond recoliections OF
his hospitality; he could kindle 7~H
with a bow and string, a pine stick
and some shayings; he could make
anything from a splint broom 70
rocking horse with his jack-knife. Abe
Lincoln was one Of the many men who
knew and loved him.
On a warm, bright afternoon early
IN September, Bowlln Green was going
around the pasture 10 put his fence in
repair, when he came upon young Mr..
Lincoln. The later sat In the shade
Of a tree on the hillside. He looked
terribly peaked" as Uncle Bowlin
has said In a letter.
"why, Abe, where have you beenf'

was sorrowful. His steps were slow.
He had passed out of his young man
hood. When l spoke to him, he an
swered with that gentle dignity now
so familiar to all who knew him. From
that hour he was Abraham Lincoln"
Ann passed away before the month
ended and became, like many of her
kind, an imperishable memory. In
her presence the spirit of the young
man had received such baptism that
henceforward, taking thought of her,
he was to love purity and all clean
ness, and no Mary who came to his
feet with tears and ointment was ever
to be turned away.

CLIMAX EXPECTED
IN IRISH SITUATION

LONDON, Nov. S.-A climax in
the Irish situation will be reached
Thursday.
On that day the Ulster cabinet will
confer with Premier Lloyd George
on the proposed settlement, requir-
ing certain concessions by that dis
trict.
Should the Obstetrics refuse to con
slider the compromise proposition, it
was believed certain Lloyd George
would carry out his threat to re
sign.
An official draft of the PROPOSE
ton was submitted last night to Sir
James Craig, Ulster premier. This
it was learned today, may be placed
before the Ulster cabinet when the
members arrive here today so that
it's contents can be fully digested
before Thursdays conference.
Among the members Of the Ulster
ministry who were summoned from
Belfast by telegraph last night were
the Markuis of Londonderry, E. A
Archdale and j. M, Barbour.
At the conclusion of Craig's con
ference with Lloyd George last night
it was learned the former had taken
the attitude that listers rights were
so seriously affected by the proposed
settlement, which includes giving ur
two counties, that he refused tC
take the responsibility for stating
listers position.
The British governments inabil
ity to soften Premier Craig's oppo
sition to the compromise was known
to have caused considerable per
turbation among Lloyd Georges

from his hearers:

to Vindicate those rights, and then

these great things"
The speech is over. Around me
there is a swirling wass of men,
whose hearts have been touched by
the great speech which is just at an
end. Men stood about me with tears
streaming from their eyes. Realiz-
ing that they had just stood in the
presence of greatness, it seemed as
if they had been lifted out of the
selfish miasma of politics, and, in
the spirit of the Crusaders. were
ready to dedicate themselves to the
cause of liberating their state from
