LINCOLN
TRUE
jlfEV. CLARK POINTS TO "HIS
FAITH IN GOD."
, Presbyterian Congregation Last Even-
- Hears Tribute to Emancipator.
j
"Lincoln's Faith in Got!" was the
: theme chosen by Rev. G. L. Clark last
; evening in paying a fitting1 tribute to
! the great emancipator. During the
course of his interesting discourse he
j went on to say:

hardship; born to opportunity and to
greatness; born to direct a nation's
struggle and to receive a nation's
praise.
Much has been written about Lin
coln as a man, as a lawyer as a states
man and as a nation's chief executive.

ent opinions have been published: The
following references are among the
records of his life as his great heart
touched other lives.
True, Mr. Lincoln did not belong
i to any cnurcn out no oenevea in what
me nurcnes teacn. un one occasion
he said "When any Church will in
scribe over its altar as its sole qual-
uication lor membership the Saviour's
condensed statement of the substance
of both law and gospel "Thou shait
love the Lord thy God with all thy
heart, and with all thy soul, and with
all thy mind, and thy neighbor as
thyself, that church will I join with
all my heart and soul."-
We are informed, that about a year
before he was r.ssa.isinated, Mr. Lin
coln wrote to Hon. Joseph Speed,
saying among other things: "I am
profitably nngaged in reading the
Bible. Tuke nil of this book upon

In a lotrnr tn hia afonKf.ft Tv
Johnson, when his faher was suffer
ing his last illness, Mr. Lincoln wrote
"I sincerely hope that father may re
cover his health, but at all events tell
him to remember to call upon and

merciful Maker, who will not turn

When a young nation called him to
become its president he left his Lome
in Springfield, Illinois for Washing

gathered to see him off end 'to them
he Said "Mv fvinnlo r,n mo .
