Among these was Abraham Lincoln.

The story of his death is related by Mr.I.N.

Arnold.

"Thomas Lincoln was with his father in the field when the savages suddenly fell upon them.
Mordecai and Josiah, his elder brothers, were near by in the forest.
Mordecai, startled by a shot, saw his father fall, and running to the cabin seized the loaded rifle, rushed to one of the loop-holes cut through the logs of the cabin, and saw the Indian who had fired.

He had just caught the boy, Thomas, and was running toward the forest.
