the first to give definite news of the
surrender of Lee. He saw his father
later as he lay fatally wounded that
evening in the little house opposite '
Ford’s theater.
The murder of his father threw
upon Robert T. Lincoln the responsi
bility of the management of the af
fairs of the family. After the funeral
he left Washington wiith his mother
and hastened to Chicago, as he felt
the necessity of entering immediately -
upon a business career. He had stu
died law at Harvard and now was ad
mitted to membership in a leading
lawr firm of Chdcago, resigning his {
army commission. He continued the
practice of law until he was called to
Washington by President Garfield, in
1881, to be Secretary of "War. He
served in this position four years un
der President Garfield and President
Arthur and then returned to the prac- j
tice of his profession.
In 1880 ^Ir. Lincoln was elected !
delegate to the republican national
convention of that year, but his place
in the convention hall was filled by
Stephen A. Douglas, Jr. Mr. Lincoln ;
was mentioned for the presidency j
and received a few votes for the nom
ination. In the campaign that follow- j
ed he was chosen a presidential elec- !
tor for Illinois.
In 1S89 he was appointed United
States minister to Great Britain by
President Harrison and served until
1S93, when he returned to his home
in Chicago.
For many years he acted as special
counsel for the Pullman company, j
and upon the death of George M.
Pullman, founder of the company, Mr.
Lincoln was chosen president. He j
held this position until 1906 when he
retired to become chairman of the
board of directors.
He retired from active practice of
his practice of his profession in 1SS9
and gave up his Chicago residence in
1910, although he retained member- ;
ship in a law firm there. In recent j
years he lived at Manchester, Yt., in :
the summer and in Washington. D. C., :
in the winter.
On September 24, 1S6S, he married
Mary Harlan, daughter of ex-senator
James Harlan of Iowa. Three child
ren were born to them, two girls and
a boy.
MORE ABOUT UNIQUE HOME
(Continued from Pace Two)
not so hard,” he replied “some days
I lay in my hammock all day and
don’t do a tap. Other times, when I
get an idea, I carry it out. There is
one thing here that never worries me
and that is the blast of a factory or
mine whistle. I’m my own boss.”
Generally, the last thing a visitor
hears when he or she is leaving Mr.
Shelter’s home is the sound of his
deep chuckle as he bids them good
bye.
How does he live? When the lar
ger runs down he goes to work at
tiis trade, a miner, then, when a suf
ficient grub stake has been procured,
back to his comfortable home. Once
be remained for 19 months. He has
seen out there two months this sum
mer and proposes to remain all win
:er.
Contented? We’ll say he is!
