Abraham Lincoln's last meal is a topic shrouded in historical mystery. On the evening of April 14, 1865, just hours before his tragic assassination at Ford's Theatre in Washington, D.C., Lincoln dined at the White House with his wife Mary Todd Lincoln and their guests, Clara Harris and Major Henry Rathbone. The exact details of the meal remain uncertain, but it is believed to have included a simple yet elegant spread typical of the time, possibly featuring dishes such as roast chicken or beef, vegetables, and bread. Amidst the excitement and anticipation of the evening's entertainment, little attention was paid to the specifics of the meal. Tragically, Lincoln would never finish his last supper, as shortly after the play's commencement, John Wilkes Booth's bullet would forever alter the course of American history. Despite the obscurity surrounding his final meal, the legacy of Abraham Lincoln endures, and his life and leadership are immortalized in the annals of history.
