RE: Mary Lincoln's presence at Abraham's death-bed
In 1922, Robert wrote a letter to a friend, Nicolas Murray Butler, about the Lincoln tomb at Oak Ridge Cemetery:"...it is arranged that my wife and myself shall be entombed there".
Was it really Mary Harlan's sole decision that he was (they were) finally buried in Arlington? If it had been - would Robert have agreed? Or did Robert indicate during lifetime he had changed his mind? And why Arlington? |
