His first recorded affair of the heart, an emotion deeper than the calf' love of half groan youth, came when he was twenty-tw- o years old and clerking In a store at New Salem, 111. Ann Rutledge, tavernkeepers daughter, was the glrL The second affair came when he was about twenty-six- . It began as a Joke, after Lincoln had become a lawyer and was practicing at Spring-field- , but It caused him untold worry because the girl, Mary Owens, was fat and he didnt want to marry her. The third affair "took. That Is, Mary Todd became Abraham Lincoln's wife, when he was thirty-threyears old. When he was a youth In the wilds of southern Indiana, Lincoln had his sentimental vaporings, one of which appealed so strongly to his sense of vom&nce that he wanted to write a story about It This vaporing was the kind most of us have along about the time the down on our upper lip begins to toughen. It is doubtful-i- f Ann Rutledge evjr loved Lincoln. She simply appreciated his sympathy and affection she had been Jilted by James McNeill, who tired of her and went East to escape his obligation. Her father, James Rutledge, one of the founders of New Salem, kept a tavern, and there Lincoln went to board when In 1831 he left his home and became clerk In a store there. At breakfast, dinner and supper he sat by the side of the tavernkeeper's daughter. He was twenty-two- ; she was less than twenty. She was sad of heart and he tried to cheer her. Lincoln's sympathy ripened Into deep affection, but the girl was faithful for mors than a year to the memory of McNeill. Even If the girl had been willing, Lincoln was In no position to marry. He was very poor. He was one of the first to volunteer In the Black Hawk war. When the war was ended be returned to New Salem, ran for the legislature and waa defeated.. His financial condition waa so muddled at this time that he serloualy contemplated becoming a blackamlth In order to make a living. An opportunity came to him to get an Interest in a store without putting up any real money. He was a wretched storekeeper and his partner was no better. The ' business did not flourish, hut his courtship did. He and Ann Rut-ledg-e sat at night on the tavern steps or walked e along the roadt.around Aha little settlement They were young and youth Is the age of glamour. Lincoln was beginning to think of a career as a lawyer. Hs believed .he would be able In a year or two to support a wife. Ann could aot forget McNeill, but the devotion of Lincoln prevailed and she consented to marry him. The summer of their engagement was the happiest, perhaps, in all of Lincolns life. Ann Rutledge was beautiful In fact and figure and charming In every way. She was not tall and wa rather delicate. At times when she would become a little weary. Lincoln, whose strength was in taking her up In his arms and carrying he as If she were a child. With their engagement everything seemed to brighten for Lincoln. He was appointed postmaster, hs began to make a little money doing survey work, and in the fall he was elected to ' the legislature. to get Misled In decided The young couple the eprlng. Ann. anxious to complete her education, decided to go to Jacksonville to attend an academy there during the winter. Meanwhile, Lincoln went Jo Springfield to attend the seaalon of the legislature, continue his law tad lee and prepare for his admission to tbs bar In the spring. He was In 8prlngfield when he got a message that nearly broke his heart Ann Rutledge was dead. At the academy she contracted a fever and died In a few days. Lincoln wss predisposed to melancholia. The death of the woman he loved o much almost npeet his reason. Be never fully recovered trdm his grief. Ann Rutledge had been dead two or three years Then Lincoln became engaged again. In Spring-fiel- d there lived a Mrs. Able, with whom be was well acquainted. She bad a sister. Mary , Owen of Kentucky, who visited Springfield for a short tlms and to whom Lincoln had been introduced. was bright clever and buxom. She Hirj Owens and Lincoln probably forgot to Kentucky returned her. But one day Mrs. Able Informed him that he' was going to Kentucky and then. la a spirit gg tartar, she said to Liu cola: unusual,-'delighte- - I'll bring Mary back If you'll agree to marry her. Marry her? Id be delighted, said Lincoln. Mra. Able went away and a month or so later he was In Springfield again and she had her later with her. Lincoln went to call. When he saw Mary Owens he gasped. The girl had grown enormously. She had become outrageously fat Well, I've broyght her back for you to marry according to promise. said Mrs. Able. She was joking, but Lincoln wasnt sura whether It was a Jest or whether she was serious and was cloaking her feelings In the light man- ner In which she spoke. He called regularly upon Miss Owens and paid to her all the attention hs thought an engaged man should. It was not pleasant, however, for she was enormous in alia. To make tbs situation still mors absurd, hs wss very tall and very thin. The contrast between the two was enough to maks any person smile, no matter how gloomy he might be. Lincoln worried greatly over the situation. Hs felt that he was In honor bound to marry tbs lady, but he dreaded the taking of such a step. But while Lincoln had due regard for ths sanctity of bis promise. Implied or otherwise, hs tried hard to make Miss Owens understand that hs wss not a desirable partner for life. He wrote to her some of the queerest lovs letters that perhaps any man ever penned. Hs told her over and over again what a miserable life she would have with him. In one of them hs said: I am afraid you would not be satisfied. There is a great deal of flourishing about in carriages hers In Springfield, which It would be your doom to see without sharing. You would have to be poor without the means of hiding your poverty. Do you believe you could bear that patiently? Another time he wrote to her: T know I should be much happier with you than the way I am, provided I saw no algns of discontent in you. ' What you have said to me may have been in the way of Jest, or 1 may have misunderstood it If so, then let it be forgotten; If otherwise, I wish you would think seriously before you decide. What I have said I would most positively abide by, provided you wish It My opinion Is that you bad better not do It You have not been accustomed to hardship and It may be more serious than you now Imagine. I know you are capable of thinking concretely on any subject end If you deliberate maturely upon this before you decide, then I am willing to abide your decision. , Levers' Tsars and Quarrels. Evidently Miss Owens had some spirit - She sent a reply to one of his letters that stunned him. She rejected him Incontinently, and she piqued his pride in doing it, forsbe told him that he was deficient in thoee links which maks up ths chain of a womans happiness. You would not think of Lincoln as a dancing man, yet be did at times indulge in that pastime There are some records extant In proof of this. They take ths form of cotillion notices printed at ths tlms he was thirty years old and a little before his meeting with Mary Todd. Like Mary Owens, Mary Todd was a Kentuckian. and, like Mary Owens, she had a Mater LINCOLNS TRUE KINDLINESS. Mrs. Amanda Kuhn died soma months ago in Philadelphia at ths age of eighty-four- .During ths Civil war her husband was wounded and sha went to the hospital at Washington with her only beby to none him. He recovered, but she stayed to nurse others. There Lincoln saw her and was deeply Impressed with the woman's devotion to the needs of the Injured. Her beby attracted him. and, realising that tha child was a burden and anxiety to the loyal nurse, he arranged for Its care to the White House while the mother waa busy to the hospital. That was Ilka him. It ia , merely another story of ths many that mark Lincoln as ths biggest man ths modern world has known - in Springfield. Her sister waa the wife of Nlnlas W. Edwards, one of the most prominent men ox Springfield. Miss Todd was bright, witty, highly educated, ambitious, and at once became ths belle of Springfield. Few young women have had more great men suitors for their hand than had Mlaa Todd within one month of her arrlvaL Among those who paid ardent attention to her were Stephen A. Douglas, James Shields, who later waa senator from three states and who made a glorious record In three wars; Abraham Lincoln, and a dozen others. The Edwards family protested againat Mias Todds partiality for Lincoln. They thought his family waa plebeian; they thought, too, he was too grave a man. But Mias Todd loved Llncola and theybecame engaged. They were not altogether happy In their engagement. Mlaa Todd waa Jealous and exacting. She loved balla and parties, frivolities of all aorta that are so dear to women. Lincoln did not cars much for thoes thing and was shockingly thoughtless and Inattentive for an engaged man. When there was some merrymaking. If he didnt want to go, hs didnt think shed cars. Shs, however, thought It a alight Shs complained that make him feel bad be neglected her. Then,-t-o Shout It, she would go with 8h!elda or with There were tears, reproaches, quarDouglas. rels. They would make up and fall out again. All this had a very bad effect upon Lincoln. Hs became extremely morbid. Hs began to search his soul to answer the question as to whether or not be would make the womans life unhappy. They were to have been married on January 1, 1842. Something happened and the wadding did not take place There was a story, which wss credited to W. II. Herndon, that Lincoln failed to appear, but this has been pronounced untrue by those who ought to know. It Is mors likely that one of their many quarrels led to ths break between them. Some of Lincolns letters written about this time disclose his sufferings. In one of them hs says: "j am now ths most miserable man living. If what I feel were equally distributed to the whola human family there would not be on cheerful face on earth. Whether I shall ever be better I cannot tell. I fear I shall not To remain as I am la Impossible. Reconciliation and Marriage. One of his friends In Kentucky Invited him there In the hope of cheering him up. He had hard time arousing Lincoln from hla melancholia, but be finally succeeded to a manner he never expected. The friend fell to love himself and began to feel qualmish aa to whether he would make hla beloved happy. He became so miserable over hla doubt to this regard that Lincoln tried to cheer him up, and to trying to cheer his friend, Lincoln cheered up himself. When Lincoln returned to Illinois ha was much better. He and Miss Todd met and there was a reconciliation. On November 4, following, Lincoln and Mary Todd were married. While the marriage ceremony was being performed one of the greatest storms in the history of 8prlngfisld wss raging. "Did yon ever write out a story to your mind? Lincoln one asked a friend. I did when 1 was a young fellow. ' One day a wagon with a lady and two girls and a man broke down near us, and while they were fixing up they cooked to our kitchen. The woman had booka and read as stories, and they were th first of tbs kind I ever had heard. I took a great fancy to one of the girls, and when they were gone I thought of her n great deal, and one day when I was sitting out In ths sun by th house I wrote out a story to my mkid. "I thought I took my fathers hors and followed the wagon, and finally I found It, and they wera Surprised to tee me. I talked with the girl and pOanaded her to elope with me; and that night I put her on the hone and we started ott across th prairie. After several boon we came to a camp, and when we rode up we found It was the onj we had left a few hours before, and we went In. "The next night we tried again, and the name thing happened the hone came back to the same place; and then we concluded that we ought not to elope. I stayed until I had persuaded her father to give her to me. I always meant to write that story out aad publish It, and I began once, but I concluded It was not much of a story.
