SPRINGFIELD, Ill. (AP) — A stovepipe hat worn by Abraham Lincoln is going on display at the Springfield library and museum that bear his name.
The hat will be displayed along with a scrap of paper on which Lincoln wrote his idea of democracy, which included the words: “As I would not be a slave, so I would not be a master.”
