Dramatic Death of a President
Fleeting Farwell
"It is useless, gentlemen.
I think we ought to have prayer."
Relatives and friends gathered around the death bed.
The First Lady sobbed over him,
"I want to go, too. I want to go, too."
Her husband replied, "We are all going,
we are all going. God's will be done, not ours"
and with final strength put an arm around her.
He may also have sung part of his favorite hymn,
"Nearer, My God, to Thee", although
other accounts have her singing it softly to him.
