| Abraham Lincoln |
| his hand and pen |
| he will be good |
| but god Knows When |
These lines were found written in young Lincoln’s own hand at the bottom of a page whereon he had been ciphering. Lincoln always wrote a clear, regular “fist.” In this instance he evidently did not appreciate the sacredness of the name of the Deity, when he used a little “g.”
Lincoln once said he did not remember the time when he could not write.
