The Mother
I went straight from the depot to the War Office and then I just walked the street blind with crying till I made up my mind to come here.
Lincoln
We'll fix that then! Nicolay will write you an order that will take you and your baby to a good hospital and care for you till your husband comes—and fix it so he can stay here a week with you——
The Mother
[Laughs.]
I just can't thank you! I'm so happy, all I can do is to laugh!
Lincoln
Laugh on, little mother—and off with you now—clear out!
[The mother goes out laughing.]
