Lincoln first saw New Salem In April, 1831, when be and his flatboat crew bad their famous adventure ou the mllldam. Hs waa on hla way from Beardstown to New Orleans, where he saw the selling of slaves and said, "If ever I get a chance to bit that thing, HI hit it hard." July 1, 1831, Lincoln walked Into New Salem to serve as clerk In the Offut store, when It should be ready. The town election at that time was held during the first week in August, and Lincoln, being about the polling place, was asked by Mentor Graham, the man who' later became bis friend snd teacher, if be could write. Lincoln replied, "1 can make a few rabbit tracks," whereupon he was Invited In to assist In keeping tally, the regular clerk having failed to appear. It Is said that during the lull in voting Lincoln Improved the 'opportunity to tell stories. So here waa Lincoln's introduction to politics. But he waa a finished atory-telleven then. "Tom" Reed of Maine, the famous apeaker of the house of representatives, once said, "A statesman Is a successful polltican who is dead." The humor and sarcasm of this are exceeded only by s.

It was at New Salem that Lincoln earned bis nickname of "Honest Abe" and Incidentally fastened noon himself a burden of debt which he waa never abl fully to wipe out until bis fortieth year, after his election to congress In 1849. It was at New Salem that ha was clerk and storekeeper; that he studied grammar and Black-:- . atone; that he was a captain In the Black Hawk war, that he was deputy surveyor, that ha was postmaster, that he was defeated and then elected for tha legislature. And It waa at New galera that he loved and wooed and lost Ann Rutledge, over ' wnose death he nearly lost hla reason from grief. New sflem waa founded in 1823.
