It's 1847 in the wild frontier of Illinois. Attorney Abe Lincoln and his law partner William Herndon are hard-pressed to keep a young Irish immigrant lad out of jail on an attempted murder charge, despite the efforts of a corrupt sheriff to send him there and steal the young fellow's fiancé. All this, while Abe tries to prove exactly who owns Abner, the 300 lbs. prize winning Poland pig: the pipe-smoking Blackfoot squaw, or the white man with a head the size of a pumpkin? Mystery and fun before Abe ended up on Mount Rushmore!
