  10. ↑ Hamlin, Charles Eugene. The life and times of Hannibal Hamlin
    576-7.

    Henry Lord, a leading citizen of Bangor, who has presided over both branches of the Maine legislature, related a story in evidence. He was a boy of fifteen, and Mr. Hamlin was then Vice-President. One day he was surprised to see Mr. Hamlin riding in a hay-cart, and also to hear him say, "Henry, don't you want to help me get my hay in?" Young Lord accepted the invitation, and they rode out to Mr. Hamlin's farm together. But there they found that the men engaged had been called over to Major Thomas Hersey's farm. "Well, Henry," remarked Mr. Hamlin, pulling off his coat, "you and I will put in the hay." Mr. Hamlin pitched from the ground to the cart, where young Lord trod it down, and then from the cart to the mow, where Lord stowed it away. " It was a very hot day," said Mr. Lord, "and yet Mr. Hamlin enjoyed himself immensely. Although he was past middle life, yet he seemed to me to be one of the most powerful men I ever saw. The incident taught me a lesson in regard to the dignity of manual labor." Some years afterward, when Mr. Lord was president of the Board of Trade of Maine, he entertained a governor-general of Canada. When they drove by Mr. Hamlin s house, he was sawing wood in the back yard. "That man the illustrious Hannibal Hamlin! You Yankees are jokers," said the Englishman. "It seems to me," replied Mr. Lord with a quizzical smile, "that I have heard that Gladstone chopped wood for exercise."
