Western19th c.
Lincoln's Premonition
Source · Historical Account (Ward Hill Lamon)
The dream
"President Abraham Lincoln dreamed of hearing sobbing and finding a funeral occurring in the East Room of the White House. When he asked "Who is dead in the White House?", a soldier replied, "The President, he was killed by an assassin.""
The interpretation
This dream is widely regarded as a premonition of his own assassination, which occurred only days later.
