RE: Mary Todd Lincoln's faux pas (plural), worse, and much worse
AL made the comment during the WH years when he was asked to christen a warship or something. He laughed and his exact comment as I remember reading it was..." I can't name anything...Mary named all the children"!
There is apparently quite a lot that you haven't read about this couple, but understanding you deeply you esteem good scholarship, I will dig through my many books and try to find where I read it. |
