idea of disposing of the church ar
ticles by representing to antique
dealers that they had come from the
churches of Mexico during religious
troubles there.
His knowledge of Catholic rites
enabled him to choose an advantage

churches. Sawyer said he and his
two companions learned to enter a
church usually when the priest was
absent, kneel as if in prayer as near
to the valuables as possible and
snatch cups, robes, candlesticks and

entire formative period lived there his outstanding
traits developed there yet Kentucky and Illinois

But the Hoosers finally have asserted their right which
is to be proclaimed with a memorial in which every
American may feel just pride.
On the ground on which stood the humble house that
was the home of LnconS childhood apd youth, where
nearby is the grave OF Nancy Hanks Lincoln, memorial
such he would have liked one that the plain people
will understand is TO be erected the work of Thomas

the Hoosier state. 1t is described of the most
artistic and inerpretative monuments erected 10 the
memory of Lincoln expressing the simplicity, the de-
