After the assassination of Lincoln, Mrs.
Lee, calling at the White House to inquire
for Mrs. Lincoln. met the family doctor
coming out, who surprised her by saying.
"Oh, Mrs. Lee, you are the very person I
want That poor lady upstairs is practical
ly alone and nearly frantic with grief. You
must come tonight and nurse her. To
this Mrs. Lee objected, unless Mrs. Lin
coin should request it, and the doctor
went upstairs to consult her. He came
back and admitted that Mrs. Lincoln first
rejected his offer, saying, II cannot stand
that laughing woman near me now" Not
withstanding this unpropitious opening,
the doctor persuaded them both and Mrs.
Lee was with Mrs. Lincoln every night
for several weeks-until Mrs. Lincoln left
the White House. Mrs. Lincoln was a
woman Of temper, to say the least. and had
alienated a large element in Lincoln's cab

her grief proportionate.

General Grant said, Let us have peace"
but that was not specific. Let us have

gave IneTcIOTc iCuHaoH ACeC " tHC JILL
GERS of the armies of Grant and Sherman"
as he called large entertainment at Sill
yer Spring. This was prompt and the old
gentleman, pleased with his idea, has
marked the date on a stone in the yard.
The social work for such affairs was near

Witnesses Dramatic Scene.
The most dramatic scene she ever wit
messed, and one that greatly impI cssed her,
took place IN the library of the Silver
Spring house between her father and John
c. Breckenridge. Mr.. Clay was her moth
er's guardian and family lawyer in Ken
lucky. Her father, as a young man, had
been intimate with him also, and opposed
him strongly with Gen. Jackson, but at
the last carried messages of forgiveness be-
tween Clay and Jackson. Clay was the
great supporter of the Missouri comprO-
mise limiting slavery to a geographical
line. Breckenridge was cousin of Mr..
Blair, and succeeded Clay as senator from
Kentucky. The pending question was the
repeal of the Missouri compromise. The
old man was appealing to his young kins-
man, as Gays successor, not to vote for
the repeal. and reopen the slavery question,
which meant civil war. Never. she said.
