On
Saturday the Mount Pulaski Courthouse celebrated
Abraham Lincoln's Birthday with a special
afternoon of activities. Among the events was a
talk in the upstairs courtroom featuring Abraham
Lincoln and Mentor Graham. Though Lincoln was an
adult when he lived in New Salem, he befriended
Graham, the town’s school teacher and took
advantage of the teacher's knowledge to further
his education on an informal basis. On Saturday,
Graham spoke about school days in the early to
mid-1800's. The school in New Salem/Petersburg
was a "blabber school." Graham explained the
concept and put it into practice on Saturday
using the audience as his students.
