Here is an excellent article by independent Lincoln researcher Kerry Ellard about Mary Todd Lincoln's fight for pension during the last two years of her life. It's quite shocking at times how the wife of Abraham Lincoln was treated by the media. The article includes and draws on many newspaper articles from the time and challenges much of the conventional wisdom about Mary Todd Lincoln and her behavior.
