First, explain the duties of principals and agents, one to another. Second, identify and explain at least one example from the Lincoln book that shows how Lincoln fulfilled (or failed to fulfill) the duties of an agent to his principal. Your explanation of the example from the Lincoln book should be substantive enough that it is clear how the example fulfills or fails to fulfill the duty in question, and should also cite to the page number(s) in the text where the example comes from.
