More on Mrs. Lincoln's [non] faux pas

[Has anyone researched how long Mr. Lincoln remained in mourning for his friend? Did he wear an armband or rosette in remembrance for any extended period - or at all?]//quote Laurie

Excellent point Laurie. The only person I have read that Lincoln ever wore mourning for was his beloved Willie.

Yes, that's right. Lincoln's father Thomas, Elmer Ellsworth, Edward Baker, why not even "Greatest Love" Ann Rutledge ever merited the black mourning ribbon AL placed around his hat for Willie!
