RE: Extra Credit Questions
Extra credit question: Willie Lincoln was not the first person to die in that particular room in the White House. Who had previously died there?

Good guess Roger, but Garfield died after Willie passed away.

RE: Extra Credit Questions
Roger-you got it! I wonder if MTL was aware that President Harrison had died in that room? Somehow I think if she had known it she wouldn't have allowed Willie to be there.
