Excerpt from Abraham Lincoln: A Tribute Delivered, February 14, 1909, Upon the Occasion of a Special Memorial Service To celebrate the centenary of the birth of Abraham Lincoln, a special memorial service was held in Trinity Methodist Episcopal Church, Atlanta, Ga., on the evening of Sunday, February 14, 1909. This same City of Atlanta - the scene of this unique service - had been reduced to ashes just forty-five years ago by a division of the Federal Army which looked to Lincoln as its Commander-in-Chief. The Memorial Service was presided over by an officer of the Grand Army of the Republic, while seated upon the platform and also uniting in the service was the Commander-in-Chief of the United Confederate Veterans. A newspaper account of this service was sent to Hon. Robert T. Lincoln, who wrote in acknowledgment as follows: "Chicago, Ill., Feb. 20, 1909. "60 Lake Shore Drive. "My Dear Sir: "I thank you very heartily for your kindness in sending me the report of the memorial service in Trinity Church upon the anniversary of my father's birth.
