Did Robert Lincoln Ride the Funeral Train to Baltimore?

I would definitely want to be interred next to a beloved spouse. But the Lincoln Tomb is not exactly a cramped little space. MHL could have chosen a separate area within that rather large edifice for her little family.

I would simply never ever disregard my spouse's burial instructions, no matter what I wanted. Robert, by his own admission, suffered a lot of pain in Washington D.C. Now he is there for eternity.

I guess I have little sympathy for Mary Harlan because I have never disliked anyone in my family that much. I don't understand antipathy/bitterness that even death does not resolve. Maybe if I'd experienced it I'd feel differently.
