His program tonight was a first person interpretation of a boyhood friend of Abraham Lincoln. He told of how Lincoln almost drowned by falling in muddy creek, how he almost froze to death during the winter of the Big Snow, how he played a trick on his stepmother by putting muddy footprints on her whitewashed ceiling, and other interesting tales.
His stories were interspersed by harmonica music and a sing-along. It was a most enjoyable way to learn about the early years of our Sixteenth President.
