When Abraham Lincoln overcharged a customer by 11 cents, what was his response?
Correct answer: He walked eighteen miles and returned the customer's money at his home

Player #4195586, in those days they knew who their neighbors and customers were. People actually helped each other cause it was the right thing to do.

wish the world would still like that

I doubt our current president would ever do something honest like that.

Player #3961812, I live in a small town of 3,000 people i worked in a liquor store for 16 years, we actually still do treat our neighbors and customers like that . not everyone lives in a big unfeeling city, we do stoll look after and help each other out. last summer I needed some help with something so I went to my neighbor and said, I could use your help with something, he put on his shoes stood up and said lets go get it done. he didn't say what is it or where do I have to go he just said yes !!
Joseph
I don't believe it

Lincoln went on the be one of the most tyrannical presidents in U.S history.

Honesty in a person is an excellent quality

Presidents aren't built like they're used to. Then again, a lot of voters are insane and require a lot of appeasement to win their vote. Kinda of a vicious cycle.

Player #3961812, I live in a Wisconsin town of only 3,000 people we still know and help each other out

IrishGirl6, great story and he was a good man but I doubt he walked 18 miles there and 18 miles back, seems a little too made up

Honesty is never appreciated by everyone. There will always be corrupt people who will make stories to make a honest person corrupt.
LillySparrow
That’s why they call him ‘Honest Abe’!
CuGuttaNYC
This most likely never happened. Most of those old stories are just modern day legends like Washington's wooden teeth. Never happened. He had multiple dentures all made from ivory or slave teeth. The cherry tree thing also never happened.
Heather
Well………Honest Abe seems appropriate. Whew, wow.
Js
sounds like a fable to me
Sharklindee
Our president now is an honest and humble man
Lisa
Player August, It would be great if we had politicians to just listen to us.
Jocelyn

Andy Capp
Player August, I concur.

The problem with this is..."It was said"... No proof.

I love Lincoln and learning about his extraordinary life!
Player #74128989

Elliott frederick, there were about 6 different faces to the penny
Marilyn
Eleven cents was a lot of money in those days! Good for you, Abe!
alex
they don't call him honesAbe for nothing, anyone else would of kept the change, LoL.
Brian
He was my favorite President growing up. I read several books on his life after finding out that one of my ancestors was a good friend of his.
Vai
Now that’s an honest man. Also awesome that it’s his face on the penny! Great story. I wonder who was on the penny during his time? Lol
GirlOnFire
eleven cents could buy a lot back then
Cameron
The story is really great but doesn't it occur to anybody that nobody and I mean nobady will do that exact same thing now a days
InteriorCrocodile
Jethrine321, at his first run for president, he only got a little over 100 votes! Crazy!
mamaeunice
InexcusableTreat, OK, so I gave your comment a 👍before I noticed the date of 2018. The so-called President of 2022 is SO DISHONEST along with his entire administration, they will all be voted out in 2024 for sure.
Crystal Crystal
that is integrity!
