GRAVE Of L|NC0LN'S
BELIEVED BENEATH
KENTUCKY CHURCH
Authority on Paternity of Mar
tyred President Visits
Scene.

Observation-Disclosures Of The
Associated Press.)-The area in which
is the grave Of Abraham Lincoln,
grandfather of the martyred president
and for whom the boy, Lincoln, was
named. is a circle Is feet in diameter
under a corner Of the Long Run Bap-
fist church, is the conclusion reached
by Rev. DIR. William E. Barton. Oak
Park. ILL.,, as the result of a recent
visit to the church.
DR.. Barton, who is An authority on
the paternity Of Abraham Lincoln and
author of several books on the subject,
came to Louisville in search of addition
al information. to be used in a book he
is writin. He was accompanied to Long
Run by r. c. Ballard Thruston. Louis
vile historian. and a number of other
interested persons.
After II search among the tomb
stones failed to supply information. a
number of the older residents Of the
ne~ighborhood were questioned. In this
way it was learned that the church had
been built Owe a part of the GENE
terry and was believed to cover what
was believed to be the Lincoln grave.
Several planks were removed from
the floor and the ground beneath the
opening examined. This survey failed
to disclose any tangible proof of the
existence of the grave. This does not
disprove the assertions of the other
residents. DIR. Barton said. because
only a small part of the ground could
be examined and any tombstone or
marker placed over the grave may have
fallen away.
The fact that the pioneer at one
49,, ~on1I I'D ~ 1.r
definitely has been determined through
records in the office of the county
clerk. The Lincoln farm, according to
the records, consisted of 467 acres
and embraced what is now the farm
of John Calhoun Bryant. After the
death Of Lincoln. the records show.
one Of his sons, Mordecai Lincoln, sold
the land to Benjamin Bridges. The
graves Of Bridges and his wife are in
the Long Run church graveyard.
The elder Lincoln. one morning in
.1174. it is said. started from his home
in company with his three sons, Nor
.decai. Josiah and Thomas. An Indian
shot the elder Lincoln from ambush.
Mordecai ran back for his rifle. Josiah
fastened to Hugh's station, a fort not
far distant from the scene of the am
bush, and Thomas. the father of the
former president. stayed AT his father $
side while assistance was being sum-
.moned.
Mordecai is said to have reached his
fathers side with his rifle in time
to slay the Indian.
DR.. Barton, as pastor Of the Con-
gregational church at Oak Park. has
initiated a movement for the raising
of funds among admirers of President

This summary of the situation was
obtained Thursday from an authorita-

during his recent conferences with
President Harding and Secretary
Hughes.
A summary of the situation obtained
from the same source shows that while
there has been much talk of the inten-

eminent which would be in harmony
with American views. no definite ac-
ton in regard TO any of the questions
on the part of the Mexican govern
ment. yet has come TO the knowledge

dominating international force.
'Our wal was a war to end all wars.
We are not pacifists. We believe in
adequate defense for our country. But
our eyes were opened through hard
experience. We know what war means
and to the best of our ability through
all the coming years We intend to see
that such things do not happen again.
To this end there has been formed a
great interallied veterans association,

tries. 1t includes in its membership
the British legion, which followed our
own plan Of development. and is headed
by Marshal Haig, the consolidation of
all the French organizations and others
from Canada, Africa. Italy and Jugo-
Slav via, in fact. every allied country.
You will hear of the progress of
its first real congress in New Orleans
next fall, where it meets at the invita-

Grafton the American Legion feels that
more will be accomplished than through
any international conference or agree

Legion stands for America and for the
defenders of America
