Description

Excerpt from Lincoln Day, 1809-1900<br/><br/>Next, a successful lawyer in Springfield, where his uprightness was brought into even stronger relief. The kind heart, which from childhood was quick to redress a wrong or render a service, had its way in many things here, too. Winning rapidly the confidence and respect of his associates, he was sent, in 1846, to the National Congress, where he did the duty of a young, little known, and single-minded statesman, careless of gain or fame, and finding only occasional opportunity to champion the cause he had most at heart. The slavery question was one which found him possessed of deep and firm convictions. He was plainly identified with the anti-slavery movement, and he finally became its leader.
