I charge you to drop every paltry and insignificant thought for any man's success. It is nothing, I am nothing. Judge Douglas is nothing. But do not destroy that immortal emblem of humanity — the Declaration of American Independence. " We will not tarry upon that famous convention in the Wigwam in Chicago in 1860, when to the surprise of everyone present, Abraham Lincoln was so enthusiastically nominated. But before passing to his career as president we will recall an incident in his early life... which bears directly upon it. In 1831, when still a young 8 man, Lincoln took a trip down the Mississippi to New Orleans with a steamboat captain. While in the southern metropolis he saw a colored girl sold at auction. The scene filled his soul with indignation and horror. Turning to his companions he said, " Boys, if ever I get a chance to hit that institution I'll hit it hard. " Thirty one years later the chance came ; the oath was kept, and 4, 000, 000 slaves — men, women and children — were given liberty.
