LINCOLN AS A YOUNG MAN.
5. When Lincoln was sixteen years of age he was more than six feet in height, wiry and strong, with enor- mous hands and feet. He wore coarse, home-made clothes and a coon-skin cap. But this overgrown boy had one beauty, that of character — he was always good-natured.
He read everything within his reach. His first knowl- edge of law came from reading the statutes of Indiana, borrowed from a constable. He worked on a ferry-boat for nine months, receiving a salary of $6 pe...r month. He worked on his father's farm, splitting rails to enclose it; from this work he received the sobriquet of "rail-splitter." He delighted in making speeches, and upon the slightest encouragement would mount a stump and practice upon fellow-laborers. A journey to New Orleans as deck-hand on a flat boat widened his experience of mankind, and gave him his first glimpse of slavery. For several years he served in the capacity of steamboat pilot, clerk in a store and mill. He was faithful in little things, and in that way made himself able to deal with great ones.
