Bede Academy, Peru One ironic occurrence involving Abraham Lin- coln's oldest son, Robert Todd Lincoln, is unknown to most people. About one year before his father's assassination, Robert was involved in a near fatal accident on a train while coming home from Harvard University on a school vacation. If it had not been for the alertness of his rescuer, Rob- ert might never have reached his destination. The name of his savior was Edwin Booth, a well-known Shakespearean actor and the brother of th...e notorious John Wilkes Booth, his father's assassin. Letters which give details and verification of the event were collected in a story called "Memories and Letters of Edwin Booth" by Wil- liam Bisphan published in Century Magazine in November 1893. The letters were acquired by the Illinois State Historical Library in 1948. In one of the letters found in "Memories and Letters of Edwin Booth, " Booth describes what happened on the train from his memory of the incident. He recalled that one day he had started out for New York from Philadelphia.
