When Lincoln is talking to his son Robert, he mentions that Robert didn't enter the tent containing the wounded soldiers. Robert replies, "I snuck in." Nobody in the 1860s would have said "snuck", which is a 20th-century colloquialism (and incorrect; the past tense of "sneak" is "sneaked"). Instead, Robert would have said, "I slipped in", or "I stole in".
