A snowy February day in 1865 Washington follows Madge, a resourceful girl selling baskets to support her crippled father after the war. She perseveres delivering sandwiches to workers and officials on Pennsylvania Avenue, hoping to share news with her brother Bennie and catch a glance from Lincoln as he passes.
A nostalgic piece recounts Abraham Lincoln’s boyhood in Gentryville Indiana, where peers gathered for debates and poems, shaping a future orator. It notes his early schooling sparse yet rich with local mentorship and the community’s belief in his rising talent.
A young girl Madge is saved by Abraham Lincoln after a team of carriage horses injures her on Pennsylvania Avenue. Lincoln carries her to a house, where a doctor attends to her and the president speaks softly, promising to return. The tale ends with the nation learning Lincoln was shot on April 14.
A historical column notes large numbers of political valentines sent to U S presidents each year. Messages often mock or praise the leader while most mail is opened and discarded, with a few kept as curiosities. It cites Arthur and Harrison era cartoons reflecting public views and sartorial tastes.
