Abraham Lincoln

Abraham Lincoln was born on February 12 in 1809. Things were different then. When Abe was a boy, he lived in a log cabin. A log cabin is a small house made out of logs cut from trees. His father cut down the trees and made the cabin.

There were no electric lights in the cabin because electricity hadn't been invent­ed yet. So young Abe read books by firelight. Abe's family was poor. Often he went barefoot because he didn't have any shoes.

When Abraham Lincoln grew up, he studied hard and became a lawyer. Then he was elected to be a law-maker. In 1861, Abraham Lincoln became the 16th President of the United States.

During his presidency, Abraham Lincoln received several death threats, but he took very few safety precautions. He usually travelled with­out a guard because he thought that a president shouldn't be shielded from the public. Lincoln was assassinated while talking to the public at the Ford Theatre. It happened in 1865.
