  • From the Director Dear Friends
    Vol. 22 www.lincolncottage.org Winter 2014 From the Director Dear Friends, If you had visited our offices in the past few weeks, you might wonder why everyone was sporting a perpetual grin. It was hard not to be happy. This month, we landed the cover of Washingtonian magazine with our iconic sculpture of Lincoln. The eye-catching cover showcases the life-like detail achieved by the artists at StudioEIS. It’s hard to believe the sculpture was dedicated five years ago this week, just one year after we opened to the public. So much has changed since then, and the cover was one in a recent string of events that demonstrated that all the hard work and determination of the past few years is paying off. Thank you for helping us spread the word. Did you see us on the cover of Washingtonian magazine? The life-size Washingtonian’s brief write-up took the opportunity to contrast our statue of Lincoln standing in front sculpture with one that is far more familiar to most Americans — the of the Cottage is a top pick for local Lincoln Memorial.

  • Abraham Lincoln His Hand and His Pen
    Abraham Lincoln His hand and his pen EPISODE TRANSCRIPT Listen to Presidential at http://wapo.st/presidential This transcript was run through an automated transcription service and then lightly edited for clarity. There may be typos or small discrepancies from the podcast audio. LILLIAN CUNNINGHAM: This morning I went to the Lincoln Memorial before dawn. I got there, and I climbed up the huge marble steps to his statue. And I looked east across the National Mall, past the Washington Monument, past the Capitol building. I had actually planned for the opening of this episode to go there before the day started, before the thousands of visitors showed up, while it was still quiet -- and to read part of the Gettysburg Address or the Second Inaugural, which are both carved into the stone on the inner walls of the monument. But when I got there, it was just so peaceful. I changed my mind and I decided to just stand quietly by this huge statue and to look out -- just the same way his eyes look out from between the pillars -- to watch the pink spring sunrise. I had words of his that were just running over and over through my head, but they weren't the soaring prose of either of those famous speeches. They were just these simple four lines of a tiny poem that he wrote when he was a little boy. And the poem goes: 'Abraham Lincoln. His hand and his pen. He will be good, but God knows when.' This episode is about Lincoln's hand and his pen, and just how good he was.

  • Chapter Twenty-Five “This Damned Old House” the Lincoln Family In
    Chapter Twenty-five “This Damned Old House” The Lincoln Family in the Executive Mansion During the Civil War, the atmosphere in the White House was usually sober, for as John Hay recalled, it “was an epoch, if not of gloom, at least of a seriousness too intense to leave room for much mirth.”1 The death of Lincoln’s favorite son and the misbehavior of the First Lady significantly intensified that mood. THE WHITE HOUSE The White House failed to impress Lincoln’s other secretaries, who disparaged its “threadbare appearance” and referred to it as “a dirty rickety concern.”2 A British journalist thought it beautiful in the moonlight, “when its snowy walls stand out in contrast to the night, deep blue skies, but not otherwise.”3 The Rev. Dr. Theodore L. Cuyler asserted that the “shockingly careless appearance of the White House proved that whatever may have been Mrs. Lincoln’s other good qualities, she hadn’t earned the compliment which the Yankee farmer paid to his wife when he said: ‘Ef my wife haint got an ear fer music, she’s got an eye for dirt.’”4 The north side of the Executive 1 John Hay, “Life in the White House in the Time of Lincoln,” in Michael Burlingame, ed., At Lincoln’s Side: John Hay’s Civil War Correspondence and Selected Writings (Carbondale: Southern Illinois University Press, 2000), 134. 2 William O.
