Read the following passage and answer the questions that follow:- In the white house, abraham lincoln quietly, sadly and ably guided the nation. men complained about him, and he listened quietly and without anger. Men worked against him and he did not turn against them. His great heart was full of grief, he loved peace; he was strong and determined to go on to the end. slowly, the ordinary people of the country began to know that in the white house there was a great president and a great man. Lincoln had one series fault--one which often troubled the officers of the army very much. He loved people, and he could understand and forgive their weaknesses, perhaps more than was best. I found it difficult, for example, to permit the army courts to have a soldier shot for running away during a battle or for falling asleep while on guard duty. He wanted to forgive them and give them a second chance, and their officers didn't like it. A mother's tears, a baby's cry, a story of misfortune--these touched his heart. 1. Give the central idea of the above passage.
