1. Coincidentally, I just finished watching a documentary on Lincoln's life.

As a young man over 18, he is reported to have been sent by his father to work on other farms as a laborer and to have been required by law to give his pay to his father.

No wonder he eventually opposed slavery.

What an amazing man.
