Abraham Lincoln Abraham Lincoln Lincoln warned the South in his Inaugural Address: "In your hands, my dissatisfied fellow countrymen, and not in mine, is the momentous issue of civil war. The government will not assail you.... You have no oath registered in Heaven to destroy the government, while I shall have the most solemn one to preserve, protect and defend it." Lincoln thought secession illegal, and was willing to use force to defend Federal law and the Union. When Confederate batteries fired on Fort Sumter and forced its surrender, he called on the states for 75,000 volunteers. Four more slave states joined the Confederacy but four remained within the Union. The Civil War had begun. The son of a Kentucky frontiersman, Lincoln had to struggle for a living and for learning. Five months before receiving his party's nomination for President, he sketched his life:

AN OVERVIEW OF ABRAHAM LINCOLN'S LIFE Abraham Lincoln was born Sunday, February 12, 1809, in a log cabin near Hodgenville, Kentucky . He was the son of Thomas and Nancy Hanks Lincoln , and he was named for his paternal grandfather. Thomas Lincoln was a carpenter and farmer. Both of Abraham's parents were members of a Baptist congregation which had separated from another church due to opposition to slavery. When Abraham was 7, the family moved to southern Indiana . Abraham had gone to school briefly in Kentucky and did so again in Indiana. He attended school with his older sister, Sarah (his younger brother, Thomas, had died in infancy). In 1818 Nancy Hanks Lincoln died from milk sickness , a disease obtained from drinking the milk of cows which had grazed on poisonous white snakeroot. Thomas Lincoln remarried the next year, and Abraham loved his new stepmother, Sarah Bush Johnston Lincoln . She brought 3 children of her own into the household. As Abraham grew up, he loved to read and preferred learning to working in the fields. This led to a difficult relationship with his father who was just the opposite. Abraham was constantly borrowing books from the neighbors. In 1828 Abraham's sister, who had married Aaron Grigsby in 1826, died during childbirth. Later in the year, Abraham made a flatboat trip to New Orleans. In 1830 the Lincolns moved west to

Abraham Lincoln was born on February 12, 1809 in a log cabin in Hardin County (now LaRue County), Kentucky. He rose from humble origins and less than a year of formal education to become the 16th President of the United States, and one of the great men of American history. Lincoln is credited with saving the Union from disintegration and eliminating slavery in America. Lincoln was elected President on November 6, 1860. He lead the United States through the nation's greatest crisis, the Civil War (1861-1865). He was a master politician, leading by persuasion and humor. The war's end was in sight on March 4, 1865 when Lincoln took his second oath of office as President. In his inaugural address he urged merciful treatment for the defeated rebel states. As Lincoln began his second term he worked tirelessly for the speedy "reconstruction" of the war-torn nation. On the evening of April 14, 1865 Lincoln was assasinated as he watched a play at Ford's Theatre in Washington D.C. He was the first American President to be assasinated. Thousands of mourners lined the tracks as his funeral train moved him from Washington to his final resting place in Springfield, Illinois.

Woodsman, laborer, farm hand, river boatman, storekeeper, surveyor, lawyer, U.S. Representative and President of the United States. Artist: Alexander R. James, 1925. Purchased for the State by schoolchildren, 1925. This portrait of the sixteenth President of the United States began with the collecting of three thousand dollars in pennies, nickels, and dimes by New Hampshire schoolchildren in 1923. Ten thousand children took part in the effort to procure funds for a State House portrait of Lincoln. A commission of three was appointed to select an artist for the project. In addition to State Representative John Winant, who was soon to be governor (1925/27), State Senator E. R . Woodbury of Woodstock (NH) and Admiral Murdock were commission members. The commission chose New Hampshire artist Frank French for the work. French was a member of the National Academy and a portrait painter who had painted likenesses of several State officials; his studio was in Manchester. French contacted Frank McGlynn, a well-known stage interpreter of Lincoln (the play "Abraham Lincoln", by John Drinkwater, had featured Mr. McGlynn, and it had been a big hit). Mr. French planned to work with the actor on the pose for the portrait; then he went to California for the winter.
