LINCOLN'S HANDKERCHIEF
PRESERVED AS A RELIC
Martyred President Carried the
Linen When Shot

There was recently exhibited as a
leading attraction at a church fair in
Philadelphia a large linen handker-
chief that has an interesting history.
II was in one OF Abraham Lincoln's s
pockets on the night he was shot and

IN four spots OF the presidents blood
It is now the property Of Mrs. Lucille
carp Moon OF Philadelphia, and the
North American says of the story of
the relic:
Mrs Moon inherited it from her ma
ternal grandfather. Isaac Newton. He
was one OF the leading agricultural
authorities in Pennsylvania during the
middle Of the last century, and when
the department of agriculture was in
stituted as 4 branch OF the national
government he was appointed its first
commissioner by President Lincoln.
From his large farm. which is now
the site of Morton and Rutledge. in
Delaware county, he went TO Washing
ton. and while the head OF the depart
ment OF agriculture was not then, as
now, a member Of the cabinet, there
soon grew up between this capable
Quaker farmer and the great president
q strong friendship bond which led
the former to accede to Lincoln s
pressing invitation TO accompany him
10 FOrd's theater on the fatal night, de-
spite his religious scrUples.
Newton went, as mark OF respect
for his chief, but shortly after the play
began he said TO the president: IF thee
viii excuse me, I think ] will with
draw
within an hour came the shot that
shook the world. and when the commits
siOner of agriculture next saw his
friend, il was as dying man.
shortly after the terrible event Mrs
Lincoln gave Ar. Newton large lock
