Event Details

In February of 1861, Abraham Lincoln began his whistle-stop train ride to Washington. Along the way in different cities and at train stops, the President-elect made speeches to those wanting to get a glimpse of their soon to be inaugurated president. However, there was a devious plot to kill Lincoln in Baltimore before he even took the oath of office. Assisted by detective Allan Pinkerton, this story is a race to get through Baltimore safely and on to Washington. Lecture by Jim Ward.
