DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from Memorial Booklet Issued in Commemoration of the Centennial Anniversary of Lincoln's Birthday For some years we have on this anniversary published a booklet on one of the worthy men of other days. As every one knows, this is Lincoln's Centennial Year; and this fact has determined that our subject now should be the man who, better than any other, caught the spirit and established the work of the builders of our Nation - strong, wise, able, loving, faithful Father Abraham. This is not a life of Lincoln. It is merely a reminder of him. It is not an attempt to tell something new, but simply to tell again - by word and picture to recall the man. Multi tudes love to read about him, to think about him, to talk about him; here, then, those who wish may see his birthplace as it was and as it is to be; the book he studied and the rails he split; his hand and the maul it swung: his home and his tomb; his form and his face; the clear writing of his hand and the clearer thoughts of his brain; reminders all of our Lincoln the one we love the best of all.
