RE: Did Lincoln not want to attend the theater that night?
Lamon was in Virginia, I believe. I remember hearing Mary had one of her migraines and Lincoln insisted they go.
The man who could break pokers over his arm was Eckert. I think Stanton made sure he couldn't go to dissuade Lincoln himself from attending. No? "There are few subjects that ignite more casual, uninformed bigotry and condescension from elites in this nation more than Dixie - Jonah Goldberg" |
