RE: Lincoln ate at Delmonico’s Restaurant in New York City

I don't think the Delmonico's story is true.

The Lincoln Log says he was in New York City only one time during his presidency, as Roger has said, and that was on his way to West Point in the wee hours of June 24, 1862, when he merely switched trains.

I don't have the best memory, but I can only recall reading about one other long trip during the presidency, and that was to Gettysburg.

I have endured a great deal of ridicule without much malice; and have received a great deal of kindness, not quite free from ridicule. I am used to it. (Letter to James H. Hackett, November 2, 1863)
