Abraham Lincoln
By Christian
Hello, I’m Abraham Lincoln. I was born
in Kentucky on February 12, 1809. I moved to Illinois in 1830. I married Mary
Todd in 1842 and had four children. In 1846 I was elected to the U.S. Congress.
I was a lawyer and the 16th president. I fought in the Civil War in 1861. I
became the president in 1861, too.
I helped end slavery
and have helped many slaves. I am a great speaker and leader. I kept the United
States one country. I helped the United States earn State Rights. In 1863 I
signed the Emancipation Proclamation to help slaves be free. In 1865 I went to
Ford’s Theatre to watch a play. At that spot I was shot by John Wilkes Booth
and died in Ford’s Theatre. I died over night.
