Lincoln Monument in Edinburgh

Edinburgh, Scotland

I was surprised to see a monument to Abraham Lincoln in The Old Calton Cemetery, Edinburgh.
Erected in 1893, it commemorates the Scots who fought on behalf of the Union during the American Civil War.

there would have been many Scots in the US at that time, evicted from their homes during the Highland Clearances...good they were not forgotten at home..
