It’s like “George Washington slept here.”

“Abraham Lincoln once owned this.”...........

Oh, I get the historical/collector significance.

I just disagree with the title of the article “Abraham Lincoln Bible surfaces, offers clues to his religious beliefs.”

I have my grandfather’s copy of “Mein Kampf”. (He was a soldier in the German Army — and a Jewish man — so obviously he left promptly. But he was given a copy, just like everyone else.)

It obviously doesn’t offer a clue about my grandfather’s political beliefs.

How many times I passed that site going and coming from McDonalds

Y'know, they tore that McDonalds down and replaced it with... wait for it... a McDonalds. The old abandoned Ridgeway Library is now High School For Creative & Performing Arts. Neighborhood has come a long way.

I got mugged 30 years ago at gunpoint at the old McDonalds, around the back after going thru the drive-thru. Hope they changed the configuration of the drive-thru.

I did know about the High School's transformation.

So you are saying that unlike the very personalized Jefferson Bible, this Bible was just another bible, but owned by Lincoln?
