to protest against a pardon which
President Lincoln had issued for a
soldier sentenced to be shot for deser-

crocodile tears. She doesn't care for
that son-in-law. I'm told thai she
merely came as a matter Of duty. be-
she had opposed the marriage
of her daughter to that man. and to
refuse to plead for his life. would have
been almost objectionable. But she
didn't care for the pardon, and didn't
expect It,"
"All Of that was very clear to ne,.
Stanton" was the reply Of the Won
derful Lincoln.
II only looked at her once, and then
patiently listened to her. l had made
up my mind to issue the pardon be-
fore that mother-in-law began to talk
and weep. did not look at her y

she was saying. The pardon was is
