Logan and Wil- liam H. Herndon. When he entered uopn the practice of the law the country was new and the people were poor. The courts were held in log houses. There were few law books to be had and the litigation involved but little in amount, — the civil cases being mainly actions of assumpsit based upon promissory notes and ac- counts, and actions of tort for the recovery of damages for as- saults, slanders, etc. , and the criminal cases generally involved some form of personal violence, and ...most of the lawyers of that day divided their time between the law and politics. When Mr. Lincoln, in the spring of 1837, came to Springfield to commence his professional career he rode a borrowed horse and carried his goods and chattels in a pair of saddle-bags. Mr. Lin- coln remained in partnership with Major Stuart, with whom he had served in the Blackhawk war, until 1841, during the most of which time Mr. Stuart was in Congress and Mr. Lincoln in the State leg- islature, and he made but little progress in a financial or profes- sional way during that period.
