Mary Todd Lincoln

An interesting article as to how they will dress in period clothes and determine if she was 'insane' based on current definitions. She was the wife of Abraham Lincoln, the 16th President ofthe United States.

Just a little something I found while surfing the internet, and I hope you enjoy.

Cheers all :-)

LOL Stormy, while the real life circumstances are tragic, it would be so interesting to be a part of the 'retrial' they are having in October ;-)

And I wonder if poor Mr. Lincoln's ghost will attend?

Now why would Abe need to knock on his own bedroom door to be let in? I'd hold it open, tell him to make himself at home, yawn and go back to bed :)

That would be wild ... to spend the night in the White House and to see Abe's ghost standing there :)
