According to the National Park Service page Lincoln Memorial Myths ( https://www.nps.gov/linc/learn/historyculture/lincoln-memorial-myths.htm ):
A word is misspelled in the Lincoln Memorial.
In Lincoln's Second Inaugural Address, depicted on the north wall of the memorial, an engraver inadvertently carved a letter "E" where he meant to carve an "F." This error was corrected by filling in a portion of the carving to revert it to an "F." Status: Partially true. |
