04/22/2016 | Boy Scouts' Lincoln Trail Hike
Apr 22-Apr 23, 2100Z-2200Z, W9SPI, New Salem, IL. Capital Area Amateur Radio Emergency Response Team (CAARERT). SSB 14.250 7.200; CW 14.045 7.045. Certificate. John Anderson, W9TRC, 1508 W Lake Shore Dr, Springfield, IL 62712. In 1831, 22-year old Abraham Lincoln moved to New Salem to work as a store clerk and mill hand. While living in New Salem, Lincoln taught himself grammar, literature, mathematics, surveying and law. Law books were not available in New Salem, so Lincoln borrowed books from John Stuart in Springfield. Because Lincoln could not afford the stagecoach fare to Springfield, he walked to Springfield or borrowed a horse, often hiking to Springfield and back in a single day. In 1837, Lincoln became a law partner to John Stuart in Springfield. Each year, approximately, 1000 Scouts (including some Girl Scouts) participate in this event. w9trc@arrl.net
