Lincoln Beaten Up
I recently saw a brief mention online that young Mr. Lincoln was attacked by a group of black men intent on robbing him and his riverboat companion on one of their treks down river. Is this true?

The article seemed to imply that this attack played a role in Lincoln's early statements about racial inequality. Comments?
