I agree with you, Bill. Lincoln seemed to be in a state of denial about this.

He also didn't liked be prisoner of the bubble that's usually expected to come with a high office. But yes. He was in denial... Or maybe just didn't wanted Mary to worry. They already had the carriage "Accident" ( sabotage) intended for Lincoln but it was Mary who fell and hurt her head badly.
