THE HANOVERIAN 7 defeat, that he would do nothing to them out of revenge and hatred. With malice toward none, with charity for all, the greatest of victors revealed himself as a genius of recon- ciliation. Another service Lincoln could have rendered his country had he lived, would have been to clear the country of worth- less office seekers. A few days after the fall of Richmond, he pointed out to his friend, a large crowd of these office seekers beseiged his door. Look at that, he said, Now we have conquered the rebellion, but here you see some- thing that may become more dangerous than the rebellion itself. Mr. Lincoln certainly did not profess to reform principles. He gave offices to some of his friends, but in his endeavor to strengthen the Union, he searched the country for good men to hold officesg in this he frequently overstepped the limits of his party. To us of the younger generation, Abraham Lincoln has become a half mythical figure which, as time passes, will grow into more heroic proportions. This is a common lot for heroes: their tales of heroism grow more fanciful with time. The Lincoln tale is apt to be more so because of his humble origin, the contrasts, and the startling height to which he rose. This true American remained the simplest and most un- pretending of citizens, when elevated to the highest posi- tion in the land. He who could not see a creature suffer without feeling a pang in his own breast, suddenly found himself called on to lead one of the bloodiest of our wars but in his heart he was the truest friend of the South. Among the lamentations that rose with the news of Lincoln's death none voices deeper grief than 'Walt Whit- man in his poem, O Captain, My Captain. My Captain does not answer, His lips are pale and still, My father does not feel my arm, He has no pulse or will, The ship is anchored safe and sound, Its voyage closed and done. From fearful trip to victor ship Comes in with object won, Exult, O shore, and rin-g, Oh Fbellsg But I with mournful tread Walk the deck, my 'Captain lies Fallen cold and dead. SAMUEL BARCLAY, '28.
