Twenty-five years ago, when I was on The La Rue County Herald a weekly newspaper published at Hodgenville, Kentucky, the town of my birth and upbringing, I found much pleasure in visiting the home of Mr. Gollaher, and drawing from him these tales of the days when he and Lincoln, children of the wilderness, played in the woods, and along Knob Creek, upon the banks of which the boy Austin Gollaher lived when the Lincolns moved from Cave Spring Farm to the Knob Creek hills.

At the back of the fair on a stall sits a bear. He stares out each day, hoping that the people passing by would stop and try to win a prize and perhaps once, just once, he will be that prize. In all the time he has been there, which is a long time, no matter how hard people try, the cans just don’t drop.
