Baseball Church tries to prove Lincoln legend true

Historians have doubted the story. Locals have long filed it under “urban legend.”

But some Lincoln Christian Church members continued to believe Abraham Lincoln really did work as a lawyer and judge in their church when it temporarily doubled as the Logan County Courthouse from 1857 to 1858.
