    Extractions: Abraham Lincoln ( February 12 , 1809 - April 15 , 1865 ) was the 16th ( 1861 - 1865 ) President of the United States , and the first President from the Republican Party . He is well praised for successfully restoring the federal unity of the nation by defeating the secessionist Confederate States of America and along the way, playing in an important role in ending chattel slavery in the United States. However, a number of states' rights supporters continue to view Lincoln as a tyrant who suspended civil liberties and suppressed the "legitimate right" to secede. Order: 16th President Term of Office: March 4 , 1861 - April 15 , 1865 Followed: James Buchanan Succeeded by: Andrew Johnson Date of Birth Sunday , February 12 , 1809 Place of Birth: Larue County, Kentucky Date of Death: Saturday , April 15 , 1865 Place of Death: Washington, D.C. First Lady: Mary Todd Occupation: lawyer Political Party: Republican Vice President: Born on February 12 , 1809 , in Kentucky , he moved at a young age to the area near Springfield, Illinois . He served as a captain in the U.S. Army during the Black Hawk War . He later tried his hand at several business and political ventures. Lincoln served four terms in the Illinois State Legislature, was twice elected to Congress (1847 and 1849) and had a successful law practice in Illinois both before and after his two terms in the House of Representatives. It is commonly held that Lincoln had turbulent mood swings alternating between grandiosity and depression, which greatly moderated after his marriage to Mary Todd Lincoln in 1842.

    Extractions: Abraham Lincoln was born and raised in a one-room log cabin; Mary Todd was born and raised in a fourteen-room house. Abraham received less than one year of formal schooling; Mary received education throughout her childhood. Despite these opposite backgrounds, they met one night at a dance in Springfield, Illinois. Abraham approached Mary, and told her that he wanted to dance with her in the "worst way." As she later related the story, she said he did just that - danced with her in the worst way. She overlooked his two left feet and they began courting. However, her eldest sister - Elizabeth - and her husband - Ninian - disapproved of Abraham. The young couple broke off their courtship on what Lincoln referred to as the "fatal first of January" 1841. For over a year, Abraham and Mary avoided each other, until mutual friends brought them back together, and they dated in secret. Mary did not tell Elizabeth until their wedding day, November 4, 1842, that the couple was courting again. Elizabeth apparently gave in, and permitted the wedding to be held in her house. Afterward, the couple went to the place where they spent their first year of marriage- a single room on the second floor of a rooming house. In those humble dwellings, Mary gave birth to their first child - Robert Todd Lincoln. After renting a small house, Abraham Lincoln purchased his first and only house. In May of 1844, Abraham, Mary, and Robert moved into a one-and-a-half-story cottage - a house which they eventually expanded into two stories, and a home where they raised their family for seventeen years.

    Extractions: [n. p., n. d.] (Library of Congress, Stern Collection, Rare Book and Special Collections Division.) On the evening of April 14, 1865, while attending a special performance of the comedy, "Our American Cousin," President Abraham Lincoln was shot. Accompanying him at Ford's Theater that night were his wife, Mary Todd Lincoln, a twenty-eight year-old officer named Major Henry R. Rathbone, and Rathbone's fiancee, Clara Harris. After the play was in progress, a figure with a drawn derringer pistol stepped into the presidential box, aimed, and fired. The president slumped forward. The assassin, John Wilkes Booth, dropped the pistol and waved a dagger. Rathbone lunged at him, and though slashed in the arm, forced the killer to the railing. Booth leapt from the balcony and caught the spur of his left boot on a flag draped over the rail, and shattered a bone in his leg on landing. Though injured, he rushed out the back door, and disappeared into the night on horseback. A doctor in the audience immediately went upstairs to the box. The bullet had entered through Lincoln's left ear and lodged behind his right eye. He was paralyzed and barely breathing. He was carried across Tenth Street, to a boarding-house opposite the theater, but the doctors' best efforts failed. Nine hours later, at 7:22 AM on April 15th, Lincoln died.

    Extractions: Robert G. Ingersoll, lawyer, lecturer, and orator, 1894 President Abraham Lincoln led the United States through its most terrible crisis. In the midst of the Civil War, he spoke memorably of the ideals upon which the American government was founded. At the end of the war, he appealed to people's nobler instincts, speaking words of reconciliation and healing. On April 14, 1865, as he sat in Ford's Theater watching a comedy, President Lincoln was assassinated. Already the dominant symbol of the Civil War, he became a martyred hero on his sudden and violent death.

    Extractions: rotten Library Biographies Presidents While he may not have been gay, Lincoln did share a double bed with an attractive younger man, Joshua Fry Speed, for four years. Certain homosexual writers state outright that Lincoln was bisexual, but there is no actual evidence to this effect other than assumed innuendo and wishful thinking. And the men gave each other advice with regards to their women problems. Lincoln's eldest son, Robert Todd Lincoln, was bad luck for U.S. Presidents, being present at three U.S. Presidential assassinations Lincoln's, Garfield's and McKinley 's. To be technical, Robert was not actually present at the last one, but instead had just arrived in town. Even so, for the good of the country, he avoided chief executives altogether after McKinley. Lincoln's corpse has led an interesting life. The lead-lined presidential coffin has been moved 17 times, and exhumed and examined no fewer than five times. One attempt was made to rob the body and hold it for ransom, but the police were waiting. To avoid future threats of grave robbery, Lincoln was buried in a cage under two tons of concrete. It seems to have worked; Lincoln hasn't been seen since. Scholarly consensus has Lincoln as America's greatest President. But no man this... homely.... would ever be elected now, in these days of TV, ADD, and soundbytes. Lieberman or Kerry? Holy christ you have

    Extractions: Civil War Project Abraham Lincoln was born on February 12, 1809 in a log cabin near Hodgenville, Kentucky. He and his parents, Tom and Nancy , lived there during his early childhood days before moving to Indiana. Abraham was nine when his mother died; a year later his father remarried. When he was 21 years old, Lincoln and his family moved to Macon County, Illinois . In New Salem, his adopted home for six years, he worked and studied, learned to be a surveyor, studied law, and worked on a steamboat as an assistant. At the urging of his friends, Lincoln decided to enter politics. His first run at state politics was unsuccessful. In 1834, Abe tried again and was elected to the Illinois House of Representatives in the state capital of Vandalia. One man who saw him making a speech asked, "Can't the party raise any better material than that?" But after hearing Abe's speech the man was amazed that "he knew more than all the other candidates put together." Lincoln became well-known for his quick wit and humor Lincoln then moved to Springfield in 1837 when it became the new state capital and worked there as a lawyer and state legislator. Five years later he married Mary Todd and they had four children.

    Extractions: Abraham Lincoln Served as president from 1861 to 1865 Abraham Lincoln (1809-1865), was one of the truly great men of all time. He led the United States during the Civil War (1861-1865), which was the greatest crisis in U.S. history. Lincoln helped end slavery in the nation and helped keep the American Union from splitting apart during the war. Lincoln thus believed that he proved to the world that democracy can be a lasting form of government. Lincoln's Gettysburg Address, second inaugural address, and many of his other speeches and writings are classic statements of democratic beliefs and goals. In conducting a bitter war, Lincoln never became bitter himself. He showed a nobility of character that has worldwide appeal. Lincoln, a Republican, was the first member of his party to become president. He was assassinated near the end of the Civil War and was succeeded by Vice President Andrew Johnson. Lincoln was the first U.S. president to be assassinated. The American people knew little about Lincoln when he became president. Little in his past experience indicated that he could successfully deal with the deep differences between Northerners and Southerners over slavery. Lincoln received less than 40 per cent of the popular vote in winning the presidential election of 1860. But by 1865, he had become in the eyes of the world equal in importance to George Washington. Through the years, many people have regarded Lincoln as the greatest person in United States history.

In 1832 he enlisted in the Black Hawk War, was promoted to captain and served for three months. After his return, he was a candidate for the legislature and was defeated, but was elected in 1834 and was reelected for three successive terms. He was admitted to the bar in 1837 and began practice at Springfield, the state capital. He married in 1842 and soon began an active career in politics. Finally, in 1846, he was honored with election to the House of Representatives. He served but one term and did not win particular distinction, but voted consistently against the slavery party. Abraham Lincoln and his son, Tad. His election was the signal for secession by South Carolina, which had long contemplated the possibility of such a step if the demands of the slavery faction were not heeded. The action was taken in December, and South Carolina was followed by the Gulf States and within a few months by four others. Lincoln was inaugurated March 4, 1861, and in a memorable address he urged the people of all sections to unite in upholding the Union. He called to his cabinet all his principal rivals in the Chicago convention, and by every means in his power he sought to avert a civil war, which seemed inevitable. His efforts were in vain, however, and on April 14 the war began with the bombardment of Fort Sumter.
