Background (from that website):
"One of the fringe benefits of being an English or History teacher
is receiving the occasional jewel of a student blooper in an essay. I
have pasted together the following "history" of the world from certifiably
genuine student bloopers collected by teachers throughout the United
States, from eighth grade through college level."
LINCOLN and BOOTH
"Abraham Lincoln became America's greatest Precedent.
"Lincoln's mother died in infancy, and he was born in a log
cabin which he built with his own hands.
"When Lincoln was President, he wore only a tall silk hat.
He said,"In onion there is strength." Abraham Lincoln write the
Gettysburg address while traveling from Washington to Gettys-
burg on the back of an envelope. He also signed the Emascu-
lation Proclamation, and the Fourteenth Amendment gave the
ex-Negroes citizenship. But the Clue Clux Clan would torcher
and lynch the ex-Negroes and other innocent victims.
"On the night of April 14, 1865, Lincoln went to the theater
and got shot in his seat by one of the actors in a moving picture
show. The believed assinator was John Wilkes Booth, a sup-
posedl insane actor. This ruined Booth's career."
