Just Lincoln or Washington or both speaking, thanks.
Or mix it up and have William Henry Harrison opine on how much he could have done in his day and how his plans were thwarted by the doctors placing him in bed and undressing him, then diagnosing him with right lower lobe pneumonia, and afterward placed heated suction cups on his bare body as well as administering a series of bloodlettings to draw out the disease.
Those procedures failed to bring about improvement, so the doctors treated him with ipecac, castor oil, calomel, mustard plasters, and finally with a boiled mixture of crude petroleum and Virginia snakeroot. All this only weakened Harrison further and the doctors came to the conclusion that he would not recover.
Now, there's a story.
