I stood in the room where President Lincoln died.

Did you know that he died in a random person's home? They had to get him somewhere safe quickly after the shooting, and someone let him use their boarding house. There wasn't enough time to get him to the White House because the doctors were afraid there would be riots in the streets.

Also, did you know that since Lincoln was so tall, they had to lay him in the bed at an angle?
