The Repose of Lincoln at the Ohio Statehouse commemorates the day that Lincoln's body lay in repose in Columbus, Ohio on April 29, 1865. Historical re-enactors from the nearby Kelton House portrayed the Kelton Family. In 1865, Fernando Kelton was an honorary pall bearer for the coffin of Abraham Lincoln in Columbus, Ohio.
