"HONEST ABE"

Abe was an only child in a poor family. He was taught good principles, to be honest, and never lie. He started helping out in a store by sweeping up, then the owner hired him and put him in higher positions until finally he became a cashier. They trusted him. One day, after his job was done, he started checking his cash register and found out that there was more money than there was supposed to be. He began to remember the customers that came that day an remembered that while he was busy with one customer, the other one left. So he understood that that person forgot to get their change back. He got that money and went over to that persons house and returned the money. That person was very glad because she was poor so her money mattered to her. She started telling people about his honesty the news spread, and people began caling him, "HONEST ABE." When Abe grew up, he became the PRESIDENT. This was Abraham Lincoln, our 16th President.
