Extra Credit Questions

[Joe Di Cola]

Elisabeth and Roger,

You already have my citations! Sandburg, Burlingame (vol. 1, pp. 259-260) and, Elisabeth, you also had my original one from the Journal of the Illinois State Historical Society! I believe that Findley picked the wrong Thompkins.

Good sleuthing by all of us! Now, check out some related Spriggs trivia I will now post.

Before lodging at Mrs. Spriggs boarding house, where did the Lincolns live for a few days upon arriving in Washington City?

Also, since Mrs. Spriggs's establishment is no longer extant, what building now occupies the site? (I think this may have appeared before.)
