On this date - 15 April - 136 years ago Abe Lincloln was assasinated. See Phil Och's song THAT WAS THE PRESIDENT, THAT WAS THE MAN.

On this date - 15 April - 89 years ago the Titanic sank. For a different perspective of this event see this Cartoon by Bill Tidy and the poem it inspired by Les Barker HAVE YOU GOT ANY NEWS OF THE ICEBERG?.
