RE: Something New
Lincoln mentioned his teeth at least one time in a letter. This quote is from a letter Lincoln wrote to Mary Speed (Joshua Speed's half sister) on September 27, 1841:
"Do you remember my going to the city while I was in Kentucky, to have a tooth extracted, and making a failure of it? Well, that same old tooth got to paining me so much, that about a week since I had it torn out, bringing with it a bit of the jawbone; the consequence of which is that my mouth is now so sore that I can neither talk, nor eat. I am litterally ``subsisting on savoury remembrances''---that is, being unable to eat, I am living upon the remembrance of the delicious dishes of peaches and cream we used to have at your house." |
