He also describes Lewis Powell smashing Fanny Seward hard in the face with his fist and knocking her cold. All I can say is that Fanny must have been steel plated. A frail, tiny young woman like her would have been dead as Lincoln if that had truly happened!

I don't remember reading about the 1860's "Oval Office". I must have blocked it from memory!
