You are correct, Joe.

Dennis Hanks said that the baby "did not live 3 days."

No prize? How come everybody else gets to sleep in the Lincoln Bedroom when they win and I get squat? If you have a Correct Answer Review Board - like we do here at STY - I want to speak to someone.

Little Tommy's grave is located on private land. I will try to arrange for you to spend a night by the grave. Let me talk to the landowners; I'll get back to you.

Maybe you can get a broken branch from the "OAK TREE!"

So when is this "Old Enough To Know Better" supposed to kick in?

RE: Extra Credit Questions
There was a Lincoln statue dedicated in 1966 in Mexico. That's not the one is it? This is a good one Roger. I have been photographing Lincoln statues in Michigan (and a few other States) for a few years now. Love it!

RE: Extra Credit Questions
Yes, Bill. You are absolutely correct. Kudos! It's in Juárez.

You win free photographs of Nancy Hanks and Ann Rutledge! They are both hidden away in the far corner of the den closet, but I'll start looking for them right away.

RE: Extra Credit Questions
What else is tucked away in that closet? Perhaps a copy of Lincoln's "lost" speech?

Maybe Gardner's and O'Sullivan's photograph of Booth's autopsy.

RE: Extra Credit Questions
I think Lincoln's treatise on religion is also in there.

I dunno - I bought all this stuff on eBay from a guy named Finis Bates. Paid good money, too.

RE: Extra Credit Questions
One last statue question. Here we have a sculpture of the Lincolns together. Where is it located?
