He had the dedication to help his father persevere through the years without his mother.  "His father was a farmer who 
could not read or write and who gave Abe an ax at the age of 
nine and sent him to split logs into rails for fences. His mother 
died while Lincoln was still a young boy." (line 45)
 
He also demonstrated dedication throughout his younger years by striving to make a better life for himself besides from being a poor farmer like his father. He studied well and worked hard for his success later in life. "By the time Abe Lincoln grew up, he’d had less than a year 
of school. But he’d managed to learn to read and write, and 
he wanted a better life for himself than that of a poor farmer.

He continued to live with the grief of loosing his wife but for those who knew him they feared he would kill himself over his grief. He showed dedication to his wife by loving and caring for her until she passed.

His feelings also played a role in his character when he was an active fighter in slavery. He demonstrated dedication by fighting against slavery which no president had dared to do until Lincoln. He dealt with a four year war throughout his presidency and managed to win the war. He showed dedication to his troops on the battle field by passing laws which would grant access to the former slaves to perform tasks in the war such as fighting.]]> 2019-06-03 14:19:31 UTC https://padlet.com/sherleysharan1/ljfcsguvwdg6/wish/365309962 sherleysharan1 https://padlet.com/sherleysharan1/ljfcsguvwdg6/wish/365311255  "But those who knew him at the time remembered how 
crushed and miserable he was to lose her. Some even worried 
that he might kill himself." (line 90-95)

"Lincoln thought slavery was simply wrong, and he 
believed that the founders hadn’t intended it always to exist 
in the United States."
