Speaker 1 (00:15):
The du Pomp Cavalcade of America starring Robert John Good Evening,
this is Robert Younging. By the night of April fourteen,
eighteen sixty five, President of Abraham Lincoln was assassinated by
(00:36):
John Wilked. Every school child knows its dogs for the
most tagist moments in American history.
Speaker 2 (00:43):
Tonight we tell of the straining, seemingly almost poor ordained
events which led to the death of Abraham Lincoln.
Speaker 1 (00:51):
The first here is Bill Hamilton of the DuPont Company.
Speaker 2 (00:54):
Lining to this, give me that will last a long time.
To the super and other trim on your homes. Du
Pot recommends the use of du Luxe.
Speaker 1 (01:04):
Trim and celeustinass.
Speaker 2 (01:06):
These products of chemical nohow are a PRIs type of
finishes which have outstanding.
Speaker 1 (01:11):
Advantages over ordinary tem paints.
Speaker 2 (01:14):
To be specifics, du lux pulls its color and gloss
far longer it dries quickly. This means less damage from
dust and infret Dulux finishes are extremely resistant to fading
and to the darkening and acceleration caused by mildew and
other fungus glows. You can get Duluxe trim and cellus finishes,
(01:34):
and these practical colors light, dark and gray, green, breaker, brown,
and blast. These modern sim colors are among DuPont's better
things for better.
Speaker 1 (01:45):
Living through chemistry.
Speaker 2 (02:04):
Now, mister Lincoln goes to the place starry Robert Young

General and Missus Rance. All right?
Speaker 3 (05:49):
Why did you say that?
Speaker 1 (05:50):
Oh Mary? We try to get along with Missus Rant.
Speaker 3 (05:53):
I'm sorry, I just don't like her and he doesn't
like her.
Speaker 1 (05:55):
Well, invite them anyway, We've all got to get along. Mary.
If there's bickering and petty quarreled among ourselves, how can
we hope to reconstruct the country.
Speaker 3 (06:07):
Well, if you'll promise to go to four, I'll ask John,
I'm missus.
Speaker 2 (06:10):
Crat Well will promise, Mary, But I'll tell you this.
I'll think it over. And if I decide to go anywhere,
it will be the four. A change of plans. If
(06:33):
President Lincoln decides to go anywhere, it will be the four,
not brokers.
Speaker 1 (06:38):
Then the booth doesn't know that he andrews John Berry's
figure pot. John's very is your own? I think, tell
much the boot. Oh, yes, there he is. Oh thanks,
Oh Doug, how are you to give hello? No, that's

Speaker 1 (07:11):
M hm? Why don't you get it yourself? When are

Speaker 2 (07:15):
It's a little awkward, you see. I want to box
close to President Lincoln and person's going to be there. Yes,
he's been invited and very well.
Speaker 1 (07:23):
Reso. Well, that doesn't explain why you can't get the box.
Speaker 2 (07:27):
Yourself full hire. I don't want the embarrassment of having
to check comes froment your tickets. Beside, you have a
better chance of getting.
Speaker 1 (07:34):
A box next to mister Lincoln. Why so I used
to sit near head, but just between.
Speaker 2 (07:40):
The two of us, I have a friend I'm taping,
and well, darn it, i'd like him press. Oh that's it, eh,
will you do it for me? Certainly it's as.
Speaker 1 (07:50):
Good as you'll be so nice. A person making tomorrow.
Speaker 2 (07:53):
Night at growing the booth would sit next to President
Lincoln at Growth. But now this destiny was struggling to
prevent tragedy. Another scene takes place in the White House.
Speaker 1 (08:17):
Good Bye, oh Grant, General, Yes it's the President.
Speaker 2 (08:22):
I want to be working you by anything wrong to
nothing that a few words can't fix. Between the two
of us, it's about it.
Speaker 1 (08:33):
Why oh, come on in here.
Speaker 2 (08:37):
Now, General, you and I have to win another war,
and believe me, this one will be almost as difficult.
Speaker 1 (08:45):
I don't understand mister Lincoln. Frankly, General, neither dui. But
we must have noticed the coolness between missus Lincoln and
mister Grant or for les no need to worry about it,
But I do I do. I hate to see friction
between people. It disturbs me.
Speaker 2 (09:04):
Oh, I realized it seems like such a tiny thing
after what the whole nation's been through.
Speaker 1 (09:08):
But let's do something about it. What can we do?
Speaker 2 (09:14):
I want you and missus Grant to attend the theater
party with marrying me tomorrow night at Fords.
Speaker 1 (09:19):
Well.
Speaker 2 (09:22):
I was thinking about getting home to see my children.
I haven't seen them in quite a time. Please, General,
one more day won't make a great deal of difference.
I'll see if I finish my work in time.
Speaker 1 (09:33):
Good.
Speaker 2 (09:33):
I'll tell Mary I've invited you and Missus Grant. I'll
have a messenger notified Ford's Theater that we're coming. I
have Jennery forbidd it, Mister Lincoln, I'm not here of it.
Speaker 1 (09:54):
I'll now stand and be calm.
Speaker 2 (09:56):
Howm do you realize you've been exposing your chlch every
crank of the grudge. You will make yourself the easy
target of any assassin.
Speaker 1 (10:02):
In the city. You, honestly same time the danger of
assassinations all of it? Are you showed myself, General Grant.
General Grant's going to wait, both of you. It's you
and grant her asking for trouble.

is carrier dies down and the people get back to
the hor nearly normal state.

like life, like a duck on a pond. Is that
is exactly.
Speaker 1 (10:33):
You believe? In dreams? Mister Stanton? Dream?
Speaker 2 (10:37):
Why I had one? I dreamed of a corpse instantly
lying in the east room, surrounded by soldiers. Did I
dreamed of the sound of weeping awaken me during the night?
I went into the sea room and asked the people
(10:57):
why they sobbed? They an good because the President said,
you see her, all the more reason to be cautious.
Right and all, come, missus fan, You don't take it
so seriously for justin dreams, doctor dream.
Speaker 1 (11:14):
Well, anyway, good night, missus Benson. You have no more
fears and I'll have no more dreams. Yes, Mary, could

Speaker 2 (15:20):
It is April fourteenth, eighteen sixty five, in Washington, DC.
President Lincoln has promised Mary, his wife, that he'll go
to Ford's Theater that night, but he feels that he
should not go. Meanwhile, John Wilt's Booth makes his plans
to assassinate the President at Glover, leaving the President will
(15:41):
attend that there.
Speaker 1 (15:42):
So that morning at the stage door of Ford Steer,
there's only really how are you?
Speaker 2 (15:48):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (15:49):
Morning at the booth? I'm fired? You sit perfect, really
flick and then he menthon me, I think there's one
letter for it. Good, good, let me have it. Yes,
everybody getting ready for the big door tonight, Yes, sir,
mighty big celebration.
Speaker 2 (16:03):
Thanks, Willy, I reckon you'll be here tonight, mister Booth, No,
I hardly think so.
Speaker 1 (16:08):
Wily, you don't want to see mister Lincoln. Lincoln, but
what are you talking about? I don't heard mister Lincoln's
go be here tonight. That's not truly I heard him,
get prover or no, sir, mister Boots. The messenger comes
from the White House and say, why, mister Booth, call me,
mister Boone, you are lying, you said, going crazy, mister Boot.
(16:30):
Why you don't lie, mister Book. You're hurting me a summer.
I'm a two fights, mister Ford and told me Willie,
I forget this? Will you forget this? Yes? I got
excited because I bought tickets for Grovers.
Speaker 4 (16:48):
It's a disappointment for me to learn that mister Lincoln
will be here for no show show.
Speaker 1 (16:54):
But that don't need worry you none, mister Booth. You
can walk in and out of this year see it anytime. Yes,
that's right, isn't it anytime? Anytime at all?
Speaker 2 (17:20):
Another change in plans, both plans this time and at
almost the same moment back in the White House. All right, gentlemen,
that will be all for the moment.
Speaker 1 (17:34):
Thank you for coming to the season.
Speaker 2 (17:35):
Gentlemen, Oh general grants just a moment, yes, them about
that theater engagement tonight?
Speaker 1 (17:44):
What do you say, Well, mister Lincoln, my wife and
I both feel we to get home of people, children,
my wife play anxious to Does that mean you're not going?
It's a little awkward, Surny. Tell the truth. We've talked
it over. What is the trance to it? Because of
the Ilkys? Not really that, mister Lincoln. But I would
(18:07):
like to spend a few hours at home before going
out with my work here Washington. Then you won't go home,
I'm afraid not that the president, of.
Speaker 2 (18:16):
Course, if you would exist and though no, no, of
course not general. All right, you go home and see
your children and give them my love.
Speaker 1 (18:23):
Thackank you. You know I could swear you're seeing glad
I'm not going. Maybe you're right. I don't know, General,
not what you think as a matter of fact, because
you're not going, I won't have to go.
Speaker 3 (18:48):
What do you mean, Abe, you won't have to go?
Speaker 1 (18:51):
Oh, Grant isn't going. It would seem a little odd
for me to go to the theater on Good Friday.
Speaker 3 (18:56):
I don't see that reason.
Speaker 1 (18:58):
Oh, it's just that people might think Grant with you
to go because of the day. How how would look
if I went?
Speaker 3 (19:05):
How what kind of a raising is that You're using
every excuse in the world to get out of going.
Speaker 1 (19:10):
Mary, I I would much rather spend the eating at home.
Speaker 3 (19:14):
All right, but you're not going to work.
Speaker 1 (19:17):
Well, that's a few little matters before the meeting tomorrow.
Speaker 3 (19:20):
Well it's a theater or relax here at home, one
way or the other.
Speaker 1 (19:25):
You've got them all right, think no.
Speaker 3 (19:28):
Work your promise not prim.
Speaker 2 (19:32):
You know that clock is slow an aesthetic. Oh Mary,
my watch is on the table there what time.
Speaker 1 (19:39):
I would have?
Speaker 3 (19:41):
And it's just exactly three o'clock.
Speaker 1 (19:44):
Thank you.
Speaker 2 (19:44):
Men here we are three o'clock, all as well, three
o'clock and all is well. Yeah, three o'clock in the
(20:06):
White House and three o'clock on a Washington street where
two men walk.
Speaker 1 (20:18):
Tell you, Booth, he.
Speaker 2 (20:19):
Won't be there, look three already the papers haven't said
a word about it.
Speaker 1 (20:25):
He's got to be there, not only chance, Pain, you
better give it up. That's enough of that talk. But
listen to reading booths SE's it was going to be
at Guilford, then at fourth. The chances out he won't
show up therey there.
Speaker 2 (20:39):
I don't like the whole thing, afraid, Pain, trade of
your own kin do anything that had to be changed.
Speaker 1 (20:47):
Thing might go wrong at the last minute. Looked, John,
give it up.
Speaker 4 (20:52):
Or at least wait, you idiot, not only chance, he
may never get another like it, and a day are
so Washington will be full of million souk the White House,
every theater, every house will be called them.
Speaker 1 (21:03):
What chanceful we have none? I say, it's got to
be tonight. And if he doesn't go to Ford, he's
got to be there.
Speaker 5 (21:14):
It's got to be at Ford tonight, at Ford tonight,
at Ford tonight.
Speaker 1 (21:31):
Lincoln didn't want to go, but then it was th
State tired of the games with playing. It's in the
White House again.
Speaker 2 (21:40):
That destiny plays the last card. Look the late papers,
they say both Grant and I will be at Ford.
The theater's sold out. Well, Santon, that settles it.
Speaker 1 (21:53):
I've got to go. Never mind what the papers say,
don't risk your life. Mary's right.
Speaker 2 (21:58):
If the newspapers hadn't I much, I could refuse, But
I can't disappoint those.
Speaker 1 (22:04):
People who will be there. You have a country to serve,
of which these people are apart.
Speaker 2 (22:11):
No, Stanton, if Granted agreed to go, I should stay home.
But I can't disappoint those people.
Speaker 3 (22:31):
You aren't ready yet, Yes, my dear, I'm ready.
Speaker 1 (22:33):
I was just sitting hens off. I like this chair.
I hate to get up out of it. Mary. Did
you ever hear the story about Old Ben and the rocker? These?
Speaker 3 (22:47):
You will know I've heard it.
Speaker 1 (22:49):
Oh, yes, I should like to rest.
Speaker 3 (22:54):
Tonight Wednesday eight. It's ten out of eight and the
play start?
Speaker 1 (22:59):
Yes, yes, I know.
Speaker 3 (23:00):
Well, then get up and come on, Mary, I alright
where you're solid? Grow outside?
Speaker 1 (23:08):
Yes? All right, my yeah, all right?
Speaker 3 (23:11):
Well why are you standing there? What are you thinking about?
Speaker 1 (23:15):
Now? Oh?
Speaker 2 (23:17):
I was just looking at that chair and fire in
the grape, you know, Mary, Sometimes I wish I could
go back a long long time.
Speaker 1 (23:26):
I wonder if a person would make the same mistakes twice.
Speaker 3 (23:29):
It's so late, please, the carriage is waste.
Speaker 1 (23:32):
Alright, Ma, I should come up. Wait a minute, Mary,
what is it now? That's tame?
Speaker 6 (23:40):
What's the matter.
Speaker 2 (23:42):
When I face this room, I can look back through
the years. They're all crowded in here, Mary, all of them,
the bitter, the sweep, the days in Illinois, Springfield. I
see them all.
Speaker 1 (23:55):
Yes. When I turned to face this door, I see nothing.
Speaker 3 (24:01):
Hey, you flocking me?
Speaker 1 (24:03):
Oh I'm sorry, man, m old clocks a little floor again.
Speaker 3 (24:10):
Second, when you get back eight.
Speaker 2 (24:12):
Of course, all right, now let's go. I'm ready, now,
quite ready for the place. Thank you, Robert Young.
Speaker 1 (24:57):
Now here's Bill Hamilton of the companies.
Speaker 2 (25:01):
Peoples of the Far East cultivated silk in about the
same way for thousands of years. Each new generation of
silk farmers followed without question the old practices. And why
not wherein all the world could be found richer cloth
than silk woven from the patient spinning of the silkworms.
In time, the silkworm, for all his reputation, lost ground
(25:25):
to the shimmering fibers funning laboratories of the Western world.
And so today our newspapers, sellers Japanese clidists are taking
a critical look at.
Speaker 1 (25:34):
The silkmaker's art.
Speaker 2 (25:36):
Stronger silks are being developed. According to plethecounts, nylon is
the cause of all this activity, to improve a fiber
trought perfect long before the dawn of Christianity to the
depart company discoverer of nylon. This might be flattering, but
DuPont does not believe that even nylon is so good
(25:57):
it cannot be improved or made more cheaply, or that
no one can ever find a better synthetic fibers nylon
had rivals from the day in nineteen thirty eight when
it discovery was announced. There were the natural fibers of
silk and the man made fibers of rayon. Rayon was
good and getting better, and it was less expensive than silk.
(26:19):
Since then, other synthetic fibers have been introduced, and more
are coming from industrial laboratories. Nylon will have new rivals.
That's why Dupamp has spent more in research to improve
it than was spent in the first discovery. Today there
are not only nylon yarns for sheer stockings and fine gowns,
(26:39):
but fun nilons for sweaters and men's socks, and yarns
blended of nylon and wool, and nylon yarns for the
tools of industry, for rope conveyor belt, filter claws, and
other hard working fabrics. Under the competitive American system, no
product is ever good enough. The American people constantly seek
(27:01):
out better quality. They, not the manufacturer, decide which products
are best. That's why nylon is reaching new standards of usefulness.
That's why nylon continues to be one of DuPont's better
things for better living through chemistry and next week Cavalcade
(27:28):
presents the distingly star of stage in Scream.
Speaker 1 (27:31):
Paul munich Our play. The Alerting in Mister Pomerant is.
Speaker 2 (27:35):
The story of the discovery of a mysterious disease that
broke out in an American community last year, and how
one mister Pomerant, aiding the United States Public Health Service,
helped track down the culprits. In the best detective story fashion,
you start to join us. The nice original DuPont Cavalcade
(27:58):
Mister Lincoln Goes to The play was written by Russell
Hughes Robert Young can currently be seen in Columbia Pictures
technicolor Outdoor Drama Relentsfors. The Cavalier production featured in Tonight's
play with Robert Young, where Alice Ryan Hard is married
and Joda Sanders's boot music was composed by Arden Cornwell

The du Pomp Cavalcade of America starring Robert John Good Evening,
this is Robert Younging. By the night of April fourteen,
eighteen sixty five, President of Abraham Lincoln was assassinated by
(00:36):
John Wilked. Every school child knows its dogs for the
most tagist moments in American history.
Speaker 2 (00:43):
Tonight we tell of the straining, seemingly almost poor ordained
events which led to the death of Abraham Lincoln.
Speaker 1 (00:51):
The first here is Bill Hamilton of the DuPont Company.
Speaker 2 (00:54):
Lining to this, give me that will last a long time.
To the super and other trim on your homes. Du
Pot recommends the use of du Luxe.
Speaker 1 (01:04):
Trim and celeustinass.
Speaker 2 (01:06):
These products of chemical nohow are a PRIs type of
finishes which have outstanding.
Speaker 1 (01:11):
Advantages over ordinary tem paints.
Speaker 2 (01:14):
To be specifics, du lux pulls its color and gloss
far longer it dries quickly. This means less damage from
dust and infret Dulux finishes are extremely resistant to fading
and to the darkening and acceleration caused by mildew and
other fungus glows. You can get Duluxe trim and cellus finishes,
(01:34):
and these practical colors light, dark and gray, green, breaker, brown,
and blast. These modern sim colors are among DuPont's better
things for better.

Living through chemistry.
Speaker 2 (02:04):
Now, mister Lincoln goes to the place starry Robert Young
as Abraham Lincoln on the DuPont Cavalcade of Amlaica.

There is an enormous word of two letters in the
English language.
Speaker 2 (02:25):
If just I S means it daily enters our speech
and our thoughts mechanically, automatically, And on that April fourteenth,
in eighteen sixty five, if we, however, let our story
tell us. Let us go back to the morning of Thursday,
April thirteenth, the day before the assassination. A man enters
(02:51):
the stage door of Rovery's Theater in Washington, DC, walks
slowly along the deserted card, leading to an aumum, Yeah,

You think they'll rand a mood for celebrating. Of course
we'll draw a crowd. Why not roll, I've just dropped
because it was good Friday. If the war's over, they're
going to have a big celebration. The president is going
to be the president, Abraham Lincoln is going.
Speaker 1 (03:38):

Speaker 1 (03:46):
Yes, i'd like to. I'd like to see myself. And
he's glad I happened to drop by. Well, if there's
nothing else booth, it's eleven o'clock. There's not much time left. Yes,
you're right, mister Hi, in fact says very tidy less.
Speaker 2 (04:14):
Eleven o'clock in Glover's Sea, eleven o'clock all over the
city of Washington and in the fight house.
Speaker 3 (04:24):
Hey, what are you going to do? Refuse to go
out as tall?
Speaker 1 (04:27):
No, no, of course not Mary, but not there.
Speaker 3 (04:31):
But we've receiveing in the place you talk to exclusions
in the place.
Speaker 1 (04:35):
I have too much work to do. You need a rest,
you need to a left, and it's not yet marry nothing.
Speaker 3 (04:44):
Perhaps you don't like the pirate Glovers.
Speaker 1 (04:47):
I don't even know what it is.
Speaker 3 (04:48):
Allow another wonderful less.
Speaker 2 (04:51):
Gladden was lucky to have that lamp. Things were much
easier for people in the Arabian nights. Steps of the lamp,
the beating of peers, and.
Speaker 1 (04:59):
You are troubles di here.
Speaker 3 (05:03):
And sending a yes or no.
Speaker 1 (05:07):
Well, man, I'm afraid I'll have to refuse. All right,
all right, Robe Tad would like to go to job, Yes,

A matter of fact, I'd might grad to see a
lot of.
Speaker 1 (05:18):
Team Oh Mercy playing at Ford's.
Speaker 3 (05:21):
Theater and our American's.
Speaker 1 (05:22):
Cousin's comedy, isn't it? Yes, it's comedy.
Speaker 3 (05:26):
You know that might be better for you than a
Maddy whom to relax?
Speaker 1 (05:29):
And last, why I've almost forgotten how for terrible year?
Speaker 3 (05:35):
Why don't we get at the part he didn't go.
Speaker 1 (05:37):
To four married? You're bound and determined to get me
the theater. We could have a party.
Speaker 3 (05:43):
We could invite.
Speaker 1 (05:44):
General and Missus Rance. All right?
Speaker 3 (05:49):
Why did you say that?
Speaker 1 (05:50):
Oh Mary? We try to get along with Missus Rant.
Speaker 3 (05:53):
I'm sorry, I just don't like her and he doesn't
like her.
Speaker 1 (05:55):
Well, invite them anyway, We've all got to get along. Mary.
If there's bickering and petty quarreled among ourselves, how can
we hope to reconstruct the country.
Speaker 3 (06:07):
Well, if you'll promise to go to four, I'll ask John,
I'm missus.
Speaker 2 (06:10):
Crat Well will promise, Mary, But I'll tell you this.
I'll think it over. And if I decide to go anywhere,
it will be the four. A change of plans. If
(06:33):
President Lincoln decides to go anywhere, it will be the four,
not brokers.
Speaker 1 (06:38):
Then the booth doesn't know that he andrews John Berry's
figure pot. John's very is your own? I think, tell
much the boot. Oh, yes, there he is. Oh thanks,
Oh Doug, how are you to give hello? No, that's
now thanks than wrong? Nothing wrong?
Speaker 2 (07:02):
Matter of fact, guys, time to ask the favor of you.
What you you get me a box for tomorrow night's performing?
Speaker 1 (07:11):
M hm? Why don't you get it yourself? When are
you there? You don't answer for John.
Speaker 2 (07:15):
It's a little awkward, you see. I want to box
close to President Lincoln and person's going to be there. Yes,
he's been invited and very well.
Speaker 1 (07:23):
Reso. Well, that doesn't explain why you can't get the box.
Speaker 2 (07:27):
Yourself full hire. I don't want the embarrassment of having
to check comes froment your tickets. Beside, you have a
better chance of getting.
Speaker 1 (07:34):
A box next to mister Lincoln. Why so I used
to sit near head, but just between.
Speaker 2 (07:40):
The two of us, I have a friend I'm taping,
and well, darn it, i'd like him press. Oh that's it, eh,
will you do it for me? Certainly it's as.
Speaker 1 (07:50):
Good as you'll be so nice. A person making tomorrow.
Speaker 2 (07:53):
Night at growing the booth would sit next to President
Lincoln at Growth. But now this destiny was struggling to
prevent tragedy. Another scene takes place in the White House.
Speaker 1 (08:17):
Good Bye, oh Grant, General, Yes it's the President.
Speaker 2 (08:22):
I want to be working you by anything wrong to
nothing that a few words can't fix. Between the two
of us, it's about it.
Speaker 1 (08:33):
Why oh, come on in here.
Speaker 2 (08:37):
Now, General, you and I have to win another war,
and believe me, this one will be almost as difficult.
Speaker 1 (08:45):
I don't understand mister Lincoln. Frankly, General, neither dui. But
we must have noticed the coolness between missus Lincoln and
mister Grant or for les no need to worry about it,
But I do I do. I hate to see friction
between people. It disturbs me.
Speaker 2 (09:04):
Oh, I realized it seems like such a tiny thing
after what the whole nation's been through.
Speaker 1 (09:08):
But let's do something about it. What can we do?
Speaker 2 (09:14):
I want you and missus Grant to attend the theater
party with marrying me tomorrow night at Fords.
Speaker 1 (09:19):
Well.
Speaker 2 (09:22):
I was thinking about getting home to see my children.
I haven't seen them in quite a time. Please, General,
one more day won't make a great deal of difference.
I'll see if I finish my work in time.
Speaker 1 (09:33):
Good.
Speaker 2 (09:33):
I'll tell Mary I've invited you and Missus Grant. I'll
have a messenger notified Ford's Theater that we're coming. I
have Jennery forbidd it, Mister Lincoln, I'm not here of it.
Speaker 1 (09:54):
I'll now stand and be calm.
Speaker 2 (09:56):
Howm do you realize you've been exposing your chlch every
crank of the grudge. You will make yourself the easy
target of any assassin.
Speaker 1 (10:02):
In the city. You, honestly same time the danger of
assassinations all of it? Are you showed myself, General Grant.
General Grant's going to wait, both of you. It's you
and grant her asking for trouble.
Speaker 2 (10:16):
You've got to be careful, sir, at least until it
is carrier dies down and the people get back to
the hor nearly normal state.
Speaker 1 (10:23):
I promise you there'll be a bodyguard, hardy.
Speaker 2 (10:25):
God pop a cock, mister President, sitting in the pots
like life, like a duck on a pond. Is that
is exactly.
Speaker 1 (10:33):
You believe? In dreams? Mister Stanton? Dream?
Speaker 2 (10:37):
Why I had one? I dreamed of a corpse instantly
lying in the east room, surrounded by soldiers. Did I
dreamed of the sound of weeping awaken me during the night?
I went into the sea room and asked the people
(10:57):
why they sobbed? They an good because the President said,
you see her, all the more reason to be cautious.
Right and all, come, missus fan, You don't take it
so seriously for justin dreams, doctor dream.
Speaker 1 (11:14):
Well, anyway, good night, missus Benson. You have no more
fears and I'll have no more dreams. Yes, Mary, could
(11:44):
I awaken? Oh? What time is it? Three in the morning?

But why have you decided till suddenly you won't go?
I just I told you, Hey, that's not why. Yes,

Speaker 2 (13:02):
There's so much work to be done, so many bitter

I've got to do those things.
Speaker 2 (13:10):
Nothing is stop me, of course, not what tak oh, Mary,

Speaker 1 (15:03):
Things for better Living through Chemistry.
Speaker 2 (15:20):
It is April fourteenth, eighteen sixty five, in Washington, DC.
President Lincoln has promised Mary, his wife, that he'll go
to Ford's Theater that night, but he feels that he
should not go. Meanwhile, John Wilt's Booth makes his plans
to assassinate the President at Glover, leaving the President will
(15:41):
attend that there.
Speaker 1 (15:42):
So that morning at the stage door of Ford Steer,
there's only really how are you?
Speaker 2 (15:48):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (15:49):
Morning at the booth? I'm fired? You sit perfect, really
flick and then he menthon me, I think there's one
letter for it. Good, good, let me have it. Yes,
everybody getting ready for the big door tonight, Yes, sir,
mighty big celebration.
Speaker 2 (16:03):
Thanks, Willy, I reckon you'll be here tonight, mister Booth, No,
I hardly think so.
Speaker 1 (16:08):
Wily, you don't want to see mister Lincoln. Lincoln, but
what are you talking about? I don't heard mister Lincoln's
go be here tonight. That's not truly I heard him,
get prover or no, sir, mister Boots. The messenger comes
from the White House and say, why, mister Booth, call me,
mister Boone, you are lying, you said, going crazy, mister Boot.
(16:30):
Why you don't lie, mister Book. You're hurting me a summer.
I'm a two fights, mister Ford and told me Willie,
I forget this? Will you forget this? Yes? I got
excited because I bought tickets for Grovers.
Speaker 4 (16:48):
It's a disappointment for me to learn that mister Lincoln
will be here for no show show.
Speaker 1 (16:54):
But that don't need worry you none, mister Booth. You
can walk in and out of this year see it anytime. Yes,
that's right, isn't it anytime? Anytime at all?
Speaker 2 (17:20):
Another change in plans, both plans this time and at
almost the same moment back in the White House. All right, gentlemen,
that will be all for the moment.
Speaker 1 (17:34):
Thank you for coming to the season.
Speaker 2 (17:35):
Gentlemen, Oh general grants just a moment, yes, them about
that theater engagement tonight?
Speaker 1 (17:44):
What do you say, Well, mister Lincoln, my wife and
I both feel we to get home of people, children,
my wife play anxious to Does that mean you're not going?
It's a little awkward, Surny. Tell the truth. We've talked
it over. What is the trance to it? Because of
the Ilkys? Not really that, mister Lincoln. But I would
(18:07):
like to spend a few hours at home before going
out with my work here Washington. Then you won't go home,
I'm afraid not that the president, of.
Speaker 2 (18:16):
Course, if you would exist and though no, no, of
course not general. All right, you go home and see
your children and give them my love.
Speaker 1 (18:23):
Thackank you. You know I could swear you're seeing glad
I'm not going. Maybe you're right. I don't know, General,
not what you think as a matter of fact, because
you're not going, I won't have to go.
Speaker 3 (18:48):
What do you mean, Abe, you won't have to go?
Speaker 1 (18:51):
Oh, Grant isn't going. It would seem a little odd
for me to go to the theater on Good Friday.
Speaker 3 (18:56):
I don't see that reason.
Speaker 1 (18:58):
Oh, it's just that people might think Grant with you
to go because of the day. How how would look
if I went?
Speaker 3 (19:05):
How what kind of a raising is that You're using
every excuse in the world to get out of going.
Speaker 1 (19:10):
Mary, I I would much rather spend the eating at home.
Speaker 3 (19:14):
All right, but you're not going to work.
Speaker 1 (19:17):
Well, that's a few little matters before the meeting tomorrow.
Speaker 3 (19:20):
Well it's a theater or relax here at home, one
way or the other.
Speaker 1 (19:25):
You've got them all right, think no.
Speaker 3 (19:28):
Work your promise not prim.
Speaker 2 (19:32):
You know that clock is slow an aesthetic. Oh Mary,
my watch is on the table there what time.
Speaker 1 (19:39):
I would have?
Speaker 3 (19:41):
And it's just exactly three o'clock.
Speaker 1 (19:44):
Thank you.
Speaker 2 (19:44):
Men here we are three o'clock, all as well, three
o'clock and all is well. Yeah, three o'clock in the
(20:06):
White House and three o'clock on a Washington street where
two men walk.
Speaker 1 (20:18):
Tell you, Booth, he.
Speaker 2 (20:19):
Won't be there, look three already the papers haven't said
a word about it.
Speaker 1 (20:25):
He's got to be there, not only chance, Pain, you
better give it up. That's enough of that talk. But
listen to reading booths SE's it was going to be
at Guilford, then at fourth. The chances out he won't
show up therey there.
Speaker 2 (20:39):
I don't like the whole thing, afraid, Pain, trade of
your own kin do anything that had to be changed.
Speaker 1 (20:47):
Thing might go wrong at the last minute. Looked, John,
give it up.
Speaker 4 (20:52):
Or at least wait, you idiot, not only chance, he
may never get another like it, and a day are
so Washington will be full of million souk the White House,
every theater, every house will be called them.
Speaker 1 (21:03):
What chanceful we have none? I say, it's got to
be tonight. And if he doesn't go to Ford, he's
got to be there.
Speaker 5 (21:14):
It's got to be at Ford tonight, at Ford tonight,
at Ford tonight.
Speaker 1 (21:31):
Lincoln didn't want to go, but then it was th
State tired of the games with playing. It's in the
White House again.
Speaker 2 (21:40):
That destiny plays the last card. Look the late papers,
they say both Grant and I will be at Ford.
The theater's sold out. Well, Santon, that settles it.
Speaker 1 (21:53):
I've got to go. Never mind what the papers say,
don't risk your life. Mary's right.
Speaker 2 (21:58):
If the newspapers hadn't I much, I could refuse, But
I can't disappoint those.
Speaker 1 (22:04):
People who will be there. You have a country to serve,
of which these people are apart.
Speaker 2 (22:11):
No, Stanton, if Granted agreed to go, I should stay home.
But I can't disappoint those people.
Speaker 3 (22:31):
You aren't ready yet, Yes, my dear, I'm ready.
Speaker 1 (22:33):
I was just sitting hens off. I like this chair.
I hate to get up out of it. Mary. Did
you ever hear the story about Old Ben and the rocker? These?
Speaker 3 (22:47):
You will know I've heard it.
Speaker 1 (22:49):
Oh, yes, I should like to rest.
Speaker 3 (22:54):
Tonight Wednesday eight. It's ten out of eight and the
play start?
Speaker 1 (22:59):
Yes, yes, I know.
Speaker 3 (23:00):
Well, then get up and come on, Mary, I alright
where you're solid? Grow outside?
Speaker 1 (23:08):
Yes? All right, my yeah, all right?
Speaker 3 (23:11):
Well why are you standing there? What are you thinking about?
Speaker 1 (23:15):
Now? Oh?
Speaker 2 (23:17):
I was just looking at that chair and fire in
the grape, you know, Mary, Sometimes I wish I could
go back a long long time.
Speaker 1 (23:26):
I wonder if a person would make the same mistakes twice.
Speaker 3 (23:29):
It's so late, please, the carriage is waste.
Speaker 1 (23:32):
Alright, Ma, I should come up. Wait a minute, Mary,
what is it now? That's tame?
Speaker 6 (23:40):
What's the matter.
Speaker 2 (23:42):
When I face this room, I can look back through
the years. They're all crowded in here, Mary, all of them,
the bitter, the sweep, the days in Illinois, Springfield. I
see them all.
Speaker 1 (23:55):
Yes. When I turned to face this door, I see nothing.
Speaker 3 (24:01):
Hey, you flocking me?
Speaker 1 (24:03):
Oh I'm sorry, man, m old clocks a little floor again.
Speaker 3 (24:10):
Second, when you get back eight.
Speaker 2 (24:12):
Of course, all right, now let's go. I'm ready, now,
quite ready for the place. Thank you, Robert Young.
Speaker 1 (24:57):
Now here's Bill Hamilton of the companies.
Speaker 2 (25:01):
Peoples of the Far East cultivated silk in about the
same way for thousands of years. Each new generation of
silk farmers followed without question the old practices. And why
not wherein all the world could be found richer cloth
than silk woven from the patient spinning of the silkworms.
In time, the silkworm, for all his reputation, lost ground
(25:25):
to the shimmering fibers funning laboratories of the Western world.
And so today our newspapers, sellers Japanese clidists are taking
a critical look at.
Speaker 1 (25:34):
The silkmaker's art.
Speaker 2 (25:36):
Stronger silks are being developed. According to plethecounts, nylon is
the cause of all this activity, to improve a fiber
trought perfect long before the dawn of Christianity to the
depart company discoverer of nylon. This might be flattering, but
DuPont does not believe that even nylon is so good
(25:57):
it cannot be improved or made more cheaply, or that
no one can ever find a better synthetic fibers nylon
had rivals from the day in nineteen thirty eight when
it discovery was announced. There were the natural fibers of
silk and the man made fibers of rayon. Rayon was
good and getting better, and it was less expensive than silk.
(26:19):
Since then, other synthetic fibers have been introduced, and more
are coming from industrial laboratories. Nylon will have new rivals.
That's why Dupamp has spent more in research to improve
it than was spent in the first discovery. Today there
are not only nylon yarns for sheer stockings and fine gowns,
(26:39):
but fun nilons for sweaters and men's socks, and yarns
blended of nylon and wool, and nylon yarns for the
tools of industry, for rope conveyor belt, filter claws, and
other hard working fabrics. Under the competitive American system, no
product is ever good enough. The American people constantly seek
(27:01):
out better quality. They, not the manufacturer, decide which products
are best. That's why nylon is reaching new standards of usefulness.
That's why nylon continues to be one of DuPont's better
things for better living through chemistry and next week Cavalcade
(27:28):
presents the distingly star of stage in Scream.
