 Mary Lincoln's cake will be served, along with coffee and punch.
Uncirculated pennies from 2009 will be given away. In 2009, four new
pennies were minted to honor the 200th birthday of Abraham Lincoln.
The third one was introduced at the Old State Capitol in
Springfield. The reverse of the penny shows Abraham Lincoln standing
in front of the Old State Capitol.
A legacy of the 175th anniversary celebration of Mount Pulaski
last year is the new Mount Pulaski Courthouse Foundation, designed
to establish a fund to begin to work on repairs needed on the
building. The organization is also seeking to develop a list of
Friends of the Courthouse. Brochures are available at the historic
courthouse in Mount Pulaski and at the Abraham Lincoln Tourism
Bureau of Logan County office in Lincoln.
