Joe and Betsey got back with the doctor at nine.

That night Abe Lincoln came and sat up with us and gave us our medicine and kept the fire going.

It was comical to see him lying beside Joe in his trundle bed, with his long legs sticking over the end of it and his feet standing on the floor about a yard from the bed.

He was spread all over the place.

He talked about religion, and his views would shock most of our friends in the East.
