Lincoln and his son ‘tad’ This photograph of Lincoln and little ‘Tad’ was taken in 1861, when the four years of war were yet to burden the heart of the great President. In 1865, only a few days before his assassination, Lincoln for the last time entered the Brady gallery in Washington, and again sat for his picture with ‘Tad.’ The scene is touching beyond words.
