lincoln the lawyer

i write this knowing that very few people will actually believe that there is or rather there was a lawyer called lincoln.It's a funny name i know one which i have never known anyone to have where i come from.so after all the vitriol and impressions of fakeness and unoriginality (traits which ironically we all have) it would do you good to read this story about lincoln one of the best at his job stinking rich and with an ego to march.Yeah Lincoln was good at what he did,soliciting huge sums of money from those who deserved to loose such huge amounts of money but that isnt what he was really good at or to put it otherwise he was really good at the solicitation but even better in court rescuing his clients from the brink of disaster(or jaws of death as others might prefer) and as such was hero to both villain and those who have tons of admiration for people who are good at what they do(most are usually villains).Dispatching his duties without fear or favour(more like without fear only for favour usually went to the guy with the deepest pockets)and having made himself enemies among all his fellow lawyers was just the kind of kick that made his life worth living or so he said so himself(maybe not in those exact words but the implication was very there)
the sad tale continues with the loss of a case which was significant in that it wasnt just the first case lincoln had ever lost but also because it was one of the easiest he had ever handled and which everyone expected him to breeze past.The judge with a smirk like expression on his face which almost seemed to betray his true intentions(if there were any)pronounced the guilty man guilty and the shock was immediately felt.The rest as they say is history lincoln disappeared mysteriously the same evening he lost his case while the judge was found dead the following morning in his house.Speaking of death it should also be known that the guy lincoln was defending was charged with murder and that now three years on everyone still beleives that lincoln murdered the judge.It is no wonder then that no one named their child lincoln and that lawyers are generally frowned upon.
There are also rumours that lincoln changed his appearance and is living in town perhaps that he even is still a lawyer.
