He old Wigwam at Chicago when Lincoln was nominated for the presidency, and witnessed the frantic dem ..nstration of enthusiasm when the rails he had split were produced in tlie convention. Later he saw I^incoln's face, in the silei^ce and calmness of lasting repose, after the assassin Jiad accomplished his death. These small personal associations have strengthen- ed the writer's feeling that the greater the intimacy with lifeLincoln's which one can gain, the stronger, better, and more humane one may become. The memories of such a pure, unselfish, and honest character will form a shield for the individual and a bul- wark for a nation.
