Samson writes In his diary that Abe
went about IKE a man in a dream
with no heart for work or study. He
spent much time az Abe doctors office
feeling for some straw Of hope.
One day late In August, as he stood
talking with Samson Traylor in the
street, Doctor Allen called him from
his doorstep. Abe turned very pale
as he obeyed the summons.
1--WE just come from her bedside. I"
said Doctor Allen "She wants to see
you. I've talked II over with her par-
ents. and we've decided to let you and
her have a little visit together. You
must be prepared for a great change
In Ann. There's not much left of the
poor girl A breath would blow her
away. But she wants to see you. 1t
may be better than medicine. who
knowsY
The two men went across to the
tavern. Mrs. Rutledge and Abe tip-
toed up the stairway. The latter en-.
tered the room Of the sick girl. The
woman closed the door. Ann Rut-
ledge was alone with her lover. There
were none who knew what happened
in that solemn hour save the two
one Of whom was on the edge of
eternity, and the other was never to
speak of It. The only record Of that
hour is to be found In the face and
spirit of great man.
Years later Samson wrote in let
ter:
Il saw Abe when he came out of the
tavern that day, He was not the Abe

He had passed out of his young man

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 imperishabie memory. In
her presence the spirit of the young
man had received such a 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.

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" I"
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 prairies
alone. Many feared that he would
lose his reason.
There was wise and merry-hearted
man who lived mile or so from the
village. His name was Bowlln Green.
Those days when one OF middle age
had established himself in the affec-
tlons Of a community, its members had
way Of adopting him. So Mr.. Green
mad been adopted into many families
from Beardstown to Springfield. He
was everybody's "Uncle BowlIn." He
had most unusual circumference and
the strength to carry it. His ruddy
cheeks and curling locks and kindly
dark eyes and large head were details
Of Importance. Under all were heart
with the love Of men, a mind Of un-
usual understanding and hand
skilled In all the arts of the Kentucky
pioneer. He could grill venlson
steak and roast a grouse and broil a
chicken In way, which had filed the
countryside with fond recollections OF
his hospitality; he could kindle fire
with bow and string, pine stick
and some shavlngs; he could make
anything from a splint broom to q
rocking horse with his jack-knife. Abe
Lincoln was one of the many men who
knew. and loved him.
On warm, bright afternoon early
In September. Bowlin Green was going
around the pasture to put his fence Ia
repair. when he came upon young Mr..
Lincoln. The latter sat In the shade
of tree on the hillside. He looked
terribly peaked" as Uncle Bowlin
has said In a letter.

he asked. ''The whole village is

Lincoln as he rose and started down
the long hill with his friend.
Some time later BowlIn Green give
Samson this brief account OF what
happened in and about the cabin:

Soon Mrs. Kelso called BIN to set
the table. She and Harry brought 1t
out under the tree, where, In the cool
shade. they had a merry dinner.

up before the dinner party.
"Her cheeks are like wild roses, her

Abe rose and said. "The day is

suggested.
So:the young man brought his sad
die and bride and put 1t under the
seat Of the buggy and got in with
Annabels snnd her small brother.
Some two miles down the road Har.
ry found Abe standing between the
horses, holding the runaway by his
forelock. The latter was saddled and
bridled, while the buggy went on
ahead. n...
That is a wonderful girl" said
Harry, as he and Abe were riding
along together. "She Is very modest
and gentle hearted" ~, Il
"And as pleasant 10 look at rs the

"As soon as I can get to Spring

Next day atIetter came from Doctor
Allen, telling him that Ann was far
gone with dangerous fever. Both
Abe and Harry dropped their work
and went home. Ann was too sick to
see her lover.
The little village was very quiet
those hot summer days. The sorrow
Of the pretty maiden had touched the
hearts of the simple kindly folk who
lived there. For year or more there
had been a tender note in their voices
when they spoke of Ann. They had
learned with great gladness Of her en-
gagement to marry Abe. The whole

He read all the books had, until You
and Doc Allen came with the law
books. Then he pitched into them. I
think he has changed a good deal since
Ann died. He talks lot about God
and the hereafter"
In October young Mr.. Lincoln re-
turned to his surveying, and in the
last month Of the year to Vandalla for
an extra session of the legislature,
where he took stand against the con.
vention system of nominating candL
dates for public Office. Samson went
TO Vandalla for a visit with him and
to see the place before the session end
ed. The next year. In letter to his
brother, he says:
"Vandalla Is small, crude village.
1t has strong flavor Of whisky, pro-
family and tobacco. The night after
/ got there l went to a banquet with
Abe Lincoln. Heard lot about the
dam nigger-loving Yankees who were
trying to ruin the state and country
with abolition. There were some
stories like those we used to hear In
the lumber camp, and no end OF pow.
erful talk, In which. the names of God
and the Savior were roughly handled. 4
A few of the statesmen got drunk, and
after the dinner was over two of them
jumped on the table and danced down |
the whole length Of 1t, shattering
plates and cups and saucers and
glasses. Nobody seemed to be able
to stop them. hear that they had TO
pay several hundred dollars for the
damage done. You will be apt to think
that there Is too much liberty here In
the West, and perhaps that is SO, but
the fact is these men are not half so
bad as they seem to be. Lincoln tells
me that they are honest, almost to q
man, and sincerely devoted to the pub
lie good rs they see it. / asked Abe
Lincoln, who all his life has associated
with rough-tOngued. drinking men,
how he managed to hold his own
course and keep his talk and habits Sc
clean.
"'Why, the fact is.' said he, 4 hnve
associated with the people who lived |
around me only part of the time, but |
have never stopped associating with |
myself and with Washington and Clay
and Webster and Shakespeare and
Burns and DeEnOe and Scott and
and Parsons. On the |
whole. I've been In pretty good com.

The bulk of sales for the day ranged

(By Thomson & McKinnon.)

The stock market today was in many
respects similar 70 yesterdays sessions.
There was a noticeable absence of SELL
ing pressure. RecessiOns were moderate,
the undertoRe was good and Their was
a fairly good demand bot hfrom many of
the professional traders as we'll as from
commission houses.
Today, however, the market was a ictle
broader, and the activity included some
issues that have been inactive recently.
Studebaker was by common consent the
leader Of the market. II has been con-
spicuOus recently 10th from the stand
point Of strength as well as activity, and
has a great many friends because of
this.
The improving tendency Of the market
may he explained on various theories. but
in all likelihood the chief causes are an
ending of the urgent liquidation that
We have had for many weeks. the ap-
prOach of a holiday period. and the like
lihood that the important disbursements
that viii be made on July 1 will come
back into the market in the for moi re-
investments. and thus taken out Of cir
eulatiOn an additional quantity Of Sc
curities This, of course. would be only
Of temporary value to the market. but
under existing conditions even a tenn
pOrary improvement Is most desirable.
When we have entered the new month
the first matter of importance that will
confront US will be final decision as to
SfeXicO's policy toward the oil com
panies, and If perchance they should de-
eide TO strictly enforce the policy, as
outlined, il will certainly not be beneficial
to many Of our leading oil companies,
and will naturally react on the entire
market This. however. is a subject for
future consideration For the present
we anticipate further improvement.
