“It seems particularly appropriate that this broadcast of the Cavalcade of America presented by Dupont should happen to occur on February 12th, the birthday of that beloved American president Abraham Lincoln who typifies so many of the fine qualities of the American spirit brought out in this series. It is our privilege to re-enact several episodes in the life of this rugged, gentle, sensitive soul who knew few comforts but many trials and hardships and who triumphed over every obstacle through sheer depth of character.”
