Synopsis

Excerpt from Philander P. Lane, Colonel of Volunteers in the Civil War, Eleventh Ohio Infantry

As one draws on toward the close of life, its conditions and purposes take on a new meaning. Its hardships and disappointments appear as but the lessons of experience, and count in the long run as stepping stones to better things. These trite observations are illustrated by numer ous examples in our American life, and perhaps nowhere more clearly than in the life and character of the great Civil War President, Lincoln; in whom We trace, as the result of hard conditions of early life, that wisdom and patience and gentleness that have immortalized his name among men.

I esteem it a privilege to contribute a brief foreword to this history of a man of men, Whose virs I esteemed and whose friendship I highly valued. He was a noble character, one of those products of American life, which, like Lincoln's, combined sterling qualities of manhood with gentleness and courtesy. The parallel does not end here, for there was much in Colonel Lane's makeup that suggests the great Commoner patience, loyalty to principle, and the same quality of sturdy Americanism so admirably emphasized by the lamented Roosevelt.
