Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Illinois Life and the Presidency of Abraham Lincoln: An Address at the University of Illinois, Lincoln's Birthday, 1896 This is not the dav. Although the temptation. Is great to tell the fascinating story of that heroic army. It went through all the horrors of an awful war to restore the Union and enforce the laws. After a contest, which in length of time and in un numbered horrors had not been anticipated, it met with complete success. While succeeding genera tions will look upon each faithful member of that grand army as a hero, coming generations will value more and more deeply the great master spirit which was behind it, which called it into being, gave it form and organization, framed the simple creed which made it a cosmopolitan army of think ing patriots, and nerved its arm for the most heroic deeds in history. That great mind never departed from its simple creed. The waves of selfishness, of supercilious self-importance, of political hate, of bigotry, all beat against him, but the rock stood the storm. The times were unusual. The whole country was a military camp. The financial 'system was overthrown. Credit was low and the government began printing its own money. The needs of the army and navy were enormous, and the business transactions were such as we had never imagined before. Greed was rampant. The writ of habeas corpus was suspended and laws were shaped to suit unusual circumstances. The resulting commotion threw all manner of minds into activity. The good and the bad the wise and the cranks, all came to the surface, and all concentrated and intensified at the presidential office but the President adhered to his simple creed and went steadily on his way. He treated all patiently, but frankly. He had an intuitive sense of proper perspective; he knew the true importance of things. Then a company of temperance people came to ask that General Grant be removed because he drank too much. He inquired what kind of liquor he drank and said he wanted to know so he could send some to other generals that they might win such victories as Grant was winning. 'temperance is a good thing, he said. But we are saving the Union now. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
