Thank you Gene! It looks like a rather nice old building today, but in it's time it was foreboding and creepy. Not the Ritz by any means.

President Lincoln, fed up with the mischief making of one of his wife's Confederate sympathizing sisters(Martha Todd White) threatened to have her tossed in the prison if she didn't leave D.C. within 24 hours. I guess Mary sided with her husband. She refused to receive Martha at the WH!Confused
