Excerpt from Mary Todd Lincoln: Christmas in the White House
The loneliness of Tad was pathetic after the -'loss of his constant play mate, Willie, but two years older than he; and the attempt of the President to serve as a companion to the only son now left at the White House was responsible for the very strong attach, ment which, grew up between father and son.
Robert was ten years older than Tad and was at the executive mansion very little after the Lincoln family took up their residence there.
