I take a look at two letters by a pre-President Abraham Lincoln to his step-brother, John D. Johnston. In the letters, the first of which was penned on November 4, 1851, Lincoln insisted that Judd work before asking for money. Alas, as history would have it, Johnston did not follow Lincoln's well-reasoned advice.
