1. Lincoln and the Little Girl

by Charles W. Moores

In the old days, when Lincoln was one of the leading lawyers of the State, he noticed a little girl of ten who stood beside a trunk in front of her home crying bitterly. He stopped to learn what was wrong, and was told that she was about to miss a long-promised visit to Decatur because the wagon had not come for her.

"You needn't let that trouble you,'' was his cheering reply. "Just come along with me and we shall make it all right.''

Lifting the trunk upon his shoulder, and taking the little girl by the hand, he went through the streets of Springfield, a half-mile to the railway station, put her and her trunk on the train, and sent her away with a happiness in her heart that is still there.

2. He Rescues the Birds

by Noah Brooks, Abraham Lincoln

Once, while riding through the country with some other lawyers, Lincoln was missed from the party, and was seen loitering near a thicket of wild plum trees where the men had stopped a short time before to water their horses.

"Where is Lincoln?'' asked one of the lawyers.

"When I saw him last,'' answered another, "he had caught two young birds that the wind had blown out of their nest, and was hunting for the nest to put them back again.''

As Lincoln joined them, the lawyers rallied him on his tender-heartedness, and he said:

"I could not have slept unless I had restored those little birds to their mother.''
