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.

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

I sure wouldn’t walk 18 miles to give a penny to a customer! That’s awesome though!

It would be great if everyone in this world was honest as honest Abe. Wishful thinking.

I guess that's how he got the nick name "honest Abe"?

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

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
Hathi
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

Our president now is an honest and humble man

Player August, It would be great if we had politicians to just listen to us.

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