Show Lincoln's Mother's Tribute. Though so fond of his books It must not bo supposed that he cared only for work nnd sorlous study. Ho was a social, sunny-tempered lad, as fond of Jokes nnd fun as ho was kindly and Industrious. His stopmothor said of him: "I can sny what scarcely ono mother In a thousand can say, Abo nover gavo mo u cross word or look, and novor refused to do anything I nskod him. I must sny that Abo was tho best boy I over saw or expect to seo," From Helen Nlcolay's "Tho Hoys' Llfo of Abraham Lincoln" In St. Nicholas. |
