I supposed the R's were initials representing words of etiquette or virtues. BTW, for the article about Mary's trips to Europe on your website there is one source mentioned as to be "Mary Todd Lincoln's travels to Europe" by Dr. W. Temple. Is this a book or an article? I unsuccessfully tried to Google it or find it on Amazon.

Eva, there is a .pdf file of the article here. However, my favorite source of information on Mary's European travels is the book Mary Todd Lincoln: Her Life and Letters by Justin G. Turner and Linda Levitt Turner. Mary's letters written in Europe contain many fascinating insights into her trips, feelings, observations, etc.
