RE: An "out-of-character" moment for Lincoln?
I too have mixed emotions about this story. I am glad to see that the drunk cobbler got what was coming to him, but the way it was brought about seemed a bit savage. From all that I have read about Lincoln this does seem out of character. Of course, anything is possible. Those were different times. It makes me wonder if Matheney was stretching the truth a bit.
