RE: Anne Royall
I found this article from 1907 about Royall:
https://www.jstor.org/stable/40066954?seq=33 On page 32 of the article it briefly mentions that Lincoln was one of the members of Congress who was kind to her. Unfortunately the author, Sarah Harvey Porter, doesn't elaborate or mention where she got that information. So I don't know if she is just name-checking Lincoln or if she has an actual source for this. Regardless, I think it's very likely that she and Lincoln at least met because she was lobbying members of Congress for a pension bill while he was a congressman. Gene, there's more stories like the one you shared above in the article if your interested. |
