of
the room. John did not follow them, but he observed every movement. When they finally seated themselves, the surrounding guests sat in the
nearest chairs. This left John approximately 25 feet away. He watched in frustration while the murmured conversations around him covered the
words he was straining to hear.John's father said something and Lincoln laughed. Anxiously, John leaned forward and, at that moment, Abe Lincoln
happened to glance in his direction. John supposed he looked as if he were about to fall out of his seat. Lincoln smiled, reached out his hand, and
motioned John across the room.
