Four Great Americans: Washington, Franklin, Webster, Lincoln. A Book for Young Americans by James Baldwin, THE STORY OF ABRAHAM LINCOLN. VII.—THE FIRST YEARS IN ILLINOIS.

THE STORY OF ABRAHAM LINCOLN. VII.—THE FIRST YEARS IN ILLINOIS.

Early in the spring of 1830, Thomas Lincoln sold his farm in Indiana, and the whole family moved to Illinois. The household goods were put in a wagon drawn by four yoke of oxen. The kind step-mother and her daughters rode also in the wagon.

Abraham Lincoln, with a long whip in his hand, trudged through the mud by the side of the road and guided the oxen. Who that saw him thus going into Illinois would have dreamed that he would in time become that state's greatest citizen? The journey was a long and hard one; but in two weeks they reached Decatur, where they had decided to make their new home.

Abraham Lincoln was now over twenty-one years old. He was his own man. But he stayed with his father that spring. He helped him fence his land; he helped him plant his corn.

But his father had no money to give him. The young man's clothing was all worn out, and he had nothing with which to buy any more. What should he do?

Three miles from his father's cabin there lived a thrifty woman, whose name was Nancy Miller. Mrs. Miller owned a flock of sheep, and in her house there were a spinning-wheel and a loom that were always busy. And so you must know that she wove a great deal of jeans and home-made cloth.

Abraham Lincoln bargained with this woman to make him a pair of trousers. He agreed that for each yard of cloth required, he would split for her four hundred rails.

He had to split fourteen hundred rails in all; but he worked so fast that he had finished them before the trousers were ready.

The next April saw young Lincoln piloting another flatboat down the Mississippi to New Orleans. His companion this time was his mother's relative, John Hanks. This time he stayed longer in New Orleans, and he saw some things which he had barely noticed on his first trip.

He saw gangs of slaves being driven through the streets. He visited the slave-market, and saw women and girls sold to the highest bidder like so many cattle.

The young man, who would not be unkind to any living being, was shocked by these sights. "His heart bled; he was mad, thoughtful, sad, and depressed." He said to John Hanks, "If I ever get a chance to hit that institution, I'll hit it hard, John." He came back from New Orleans in July. Mr. Offut, the owner of the flatboat which he had taken down, then employed him to act as clerk in a country store which he had at New Salem.

New Salem was a little town not far from Springfield.

Young Lincoln was a good salesman, and all the customers liked him. Mr. Offut declared that the young man knew more than anyone else in the United States, and that he could outrun and outwrestle any man in the county.

But in the spring of the next year Mr. Offut failed. The store was closed, and Abraham Lincoln was out of employment again.

He had to split fourteen hundred rails in all; but he worked so fast that he had finished them before the trousers were ready. Er musste insgesamt vierzehnhundert Latten spalten; aber er arbeitete so schnell, dass er sie fertig hatte, bevor die Hose bereit war.

Ông phải chia tổng cộng một nghìn bốn trăm thanh gỗ; nhưng ông làm việc rất nhanh đến nỗi đã hoàn thành chúng trước khi quần được chuẩn bị xong.

The next April saw young Lincoln piloting another flatboat down the Mississippi to New Orleans. ||||||lái thuyền|||||||| Im nächsten April sah man den jungen Lincoln ein weiteres Flussboot den Mississippi nach New Orleans steuern.

Bu seferki yoldaşı annesinin akrabası John Hanks'ti. Người bạn đồng hành lần này là người họ hàng của mẹ anh, John Hanks. This time he stayed longer in New Orleans, and he saw some things which he had barely noticed on his first trip. |||||||Nueva Orleans|||||||||||||| Diesmal blieb er länger in New Orleans und er sah einige Dinge, die er bei seiner ersten Reise kaum bemerkt hatte. Bu kez New Orleans'ta daha uzun süre kaldı ve ilk seyahatinde neredeyse hiç fark etmediği bazı şeyleri gördü. Lần này anh ở lại lâu hơn ở New Orleans, và anh đã thấy một số điều mà anh hầu như không để ý trong chuyến đi đầu tiên.

He saw gangs of slaves being driven through the streets. Er sah Gruppen von Sklaven, die durch die Straßen getrieben wurden. Sokaklarda sürülen köle çetelerini gördü. Anh nhìn thấy những băng nhóm nô lệ bị lái đi trên những con đường. 他看到成群结队的奴隶被赶过街道。 He visited the slave-market, and saw women and girls sold to the highest bidder like so many cattle. ||||||||||||||người đấu giá|||| ||||||||||||||postor más alto||||ganado humano Er besuchte den Sklavenmarkt und sah Frauen und Mädchen, die an den Höchstbietenden verkauft wurden, wie so viel Vieh.

Anh ta đã đến chợ nô lệ và thấy phụ nữ và gái trẻ bị bán cho người trả giá cao nhất như những con gia súc. 他参观了奴隶市场，看到妇女和女孩像牛一样被卖给出价最高的人。

The young man, who would not be unkind to any living being, was shocked by these sights. Hiçbir canlıya karşı kaba davranmayan genç adam bu görüntüler karşısında şok oldu. Chàng trai trẻ, người không muốn tỏ ra độc ác với bất kỳ sinh linh nào, đã bị sốc bởi những cảnh tượng này. 这名对任何生灵都不会不仁慈的年轻人，被这一幕惊呆了。 "His heart bled; he was mad, thoughtful, sad, and depressed." "Kalbi kanıyordu; kızgın, düşünceli, üzgün ve depresyondaydı." "Trái tim anh ta như thổn thức; anh ta điên cuồng, trầm tư, buồn bã và chán nản." “他的心在流血；他疯狂、沉思、悲伤和沮丧。” He said to John Hanks, "If I ever get a chance to hit that institution, I'll hit it hard, John." ||||||||||||||tổ chức||||| Er sagte zu John Hanks: „Wenn ich jemals die Chance bekomme, diese Institution anzugreifen, werde ich es hart angehen, John.“ John Hanks'e şöyle dedi: "Eğer o kurumu vurma şansım olursa, çok sert vuracağım John." Ông nói với John Hanks, "Nếu tôi có cơ hội đánh vào cái cơ sở đó, tôi sẽ đánh mạnh, John." 他对约翰·汉克斯说：“如果我有机会去那个机构，我会大力打击，约翰。” He came back from New Orleans in July. Er kam im Juli aus New Orleans zurück. Temmuz'da New Orleans'tan döndü. Ông trở về từ New Orleans vào tháng Bảy. Mr. Offut, the owner of the flatboat which he had taken down, then employed him to act as clerk in a country store which he had at New Salem. Mr. Offut, der Besitzer des Flachboots, das er nach unten genommen hatte, beschäftigte ihn dann, um als Verkäufer in einem Landgeschäft zu arbeiten, das er in New Salem hatte. İndirdiği kayığın sahibi olan Bay Offut, daha sonra onu New Salem'de sahip olduğu bir dükkânda tezgâhtar olarak işe aldı. Ông Offut, chủ của chiếc thuyền phẳng mà ông đã đưa xuống, sau đó đã thuê ông làm thư ký trong một cửa hàng ở nông thôn mà ông có ở New Salem. 奥夫特先生是他打下来的平底船的船主，然后雇用他在他在新塞勒姆拥有的一家乡村商店里担任店员。

New Salem was a little town not far from Springfield. New Salem, Springfield'dan çok uzak olmayan küçük bir kasabaydı. 新塞勒姆是距离斯普林菲尔德不远的一个小镇。

Young Lincoln was a good salesman, and all the customers liked him. Genç Lincoln iyi bir satıcıydı ve tüm müşteriler onu severdi. Mr. Offut declared that the young man knew more than anyone else in the United States, and that he could outrun and outwrestle any man in the county. ||||||||||||||||||||||vật lộn||||| |||||||||||||||||||||||||||काउंटी में ||||||||||||||||||||||vencer en lucha||||| Bay Offut, genç adamın Amerika Birleşik Devletleri'ndeki herkesten daha fazla şey bildiğini ve ülkedeki herkesten daha hızlı koşup herkesi alt edebileceğini söyledi. Ông Offut tuyên bố rằng chàng trai trẻ biết nhiều hơn bất cứ ai khác ở Hoa Kỳ, và rằng cậu ta có thể chạy nhanh hơn và vật lộn thắng bất kỳ người đàn ông nào trong quận.

But in the spring of the next year Mr. Offut failed. Aber im Frühjahr des nächsten Jahres fiel Mr. Offut aus. Ancak bir sonraki yılın baharında Bay Offut başarısız oldu. Nhưng vào mùa xuân năm sau, ông Offut đã thất bại. The store was closed, and Abraham Lincoln was out of employment again. Der Laden war geschlossen, und Abraham Lincoln war wieder arbeitslos. Dükkan kapandı ve Abraham Lincoln yine işsiz kaldı. Cửa hàng đã đóng cửa, và Abraham Lincoln lại không có việc làm.
