BALTIMORE, October 13.—Mrs. Pau- line Wenzing, seventy years old, 1923 | West Fayette street, {8 probably the only living person except Robert Lincoln, who was present when President Lincoln died from an as- sassin's shot. Mrs. Wenzing disputes the claim of Thomas Proc- tor, a pauper on Blackwells Is- land, N. Y. that President Lincoln died in his bed and says there is not the slightest doubt that the man is mistaken. She says that she has letters and aflidavits to prove her statements. and that they are MRS, WENZING. now in a safe de- posit vault, to- gether with a pin that the Presi- |} dent's wife gave her, Mrs. Wenzing is a remarkable ‘woman for her age, and talks fre »]3 of the night when Lincoln was It was on Good Friday, April She was a girl of fourteen at Iho time, and was alone with a ser’ both Anna Peterson, being out at of “the house and the third from the front of the house. rst, ther man—and they had To Kknock ont the | footboard so that they 1 y _th around the bullet hole before the surgeons arrived.

The stains made by the blood of the martyred President are stlll clearly visible, “The other things,”” sald Mrs. Wen- zing, “are In a safe deposit box. ‘There is a copy of the New York Herald and several documents which show that I am telling the truth. I have, too, the pictures which hung on the wall of my room at that time, and I also have a pin which Mrs. Lincoln gave me that night as a keepsake.” Mrs. Wenzing objects to the state- ment that Lincoln died in a lodging house. Her father, she said, was one of the most prosperous merchant tailors In Washington at the time and owned his home. The President and many state officials came to him for their clothes, she says. Mrs. Wenzing moved to Baltimore shortly after her marriage, fifty years ago. COTTON REPORT SOON.
