RE: President Lincoln's sense of humor
Reading in the Lincoln Log, I find this entry from December 23, 1863:
Relates dream in which he is among plain people. One of them remarks: "He is a very common-looking man." President replies: "Common-looking people are the best in the world: that is the reason the Lord makes so many of them." Dennett, Hay Diaries and Letters. Bill Nash |
