ROBERT TODD LINCOLN

Endowed with those qualities and
: abilities that make for greatness,
Robert Todd Lincoln last surviving
son of Abraham Lincoln, whose
death occurred Monday, could not es-
cape public service. While never an
Office seeker, he was called in 1881
into the Cabinet of President Garfield
as Secretary of War, serving under
two presidents. In 1889, he was ap-
pointed United States minister to
England under President Harrison,
holding this position until 1893 when
he returned to his law practice in
Chicago.
In his desire to shift for himself,
Robert Lincoln seldom publicly men
toned the name of his father, rather
devoting his energy to his practice OF
law. In the settling Of the estate of
George NJ. Pullman, president of the
Pullman Palace Car Company, Mr..
Lincoln's diligence was noted by Mr..
Pullman's relatives and it was at
their request that he was chosen to
succeed Mr.. Pullman as head of that
organization.
An interesting anecdote Of his col
lege days was related few years ago
by Mr.. Lincoln to a newspaper writ
er. Referring to the little compan-
ionship he had with his father be-
cause Of his fathers active political
life, Mr.. Lincoln said: II returned
from college In 1864 and one day
saw my father for few minutes. He
said, Son, what are you going to do
now?'
II said, as long as you object to
my joining the Army I am going
back to Harvard to study law
eff you do said my father, you
should learn more than I ever did,
but you will never have so good a
time
That is the only advice I had from
my father as to my career"
Quietly, the young man went his
way, carving his own career by his
intellectual abilities and performing
with credit the duties of public office
TO which he was appointed. A great
responsibility was his with the
ideals Of his father ever before him
and that responsibility he shouldered
unostentatiously but effectively to the
end Of bis career.
