- Description
- Text transcribed from caption: PC-30390 CANDLELIGHT SERVICE FOR LATE PRESIDENT WASHINGTON, D.C. -- President Johnson, the First Lady and their daughter, Lucy Baines, hold lighted candles during memorial service at the Lincoln Memorial ending a 30-day period of official national mourning for the late John F. Kennedy. Thousands of other persons also held flickering candles at the service and heard the Chief Executive give a moving eulogy to the assassinated President Kennedy. Paraphrasing Lincoln’s Gettysburg Address, Mr. Johnson said: “For let us here on this Christmas night determine that John Kennedy did not live or die in vain, that this nation under God shall have a new birth of freedom and that we may achieve in our time and for all time the ancient vision of peace on earth, good will toward all men.” President Johnson called on all Americans to use Christmas as a time of thanks-giving, hope and dedication.
