In 1868, Abraham Lincoln's son Tad fell onto the train tracks as a locomotive was entering the station.  A fast-thinking bystander pulled the boy out of the path of the train, saving his life.  Who was that person?

EDWIN BOOTH  ...and it was Robert Todd Lincoln and would have occurred before the assassination. 

You're right that it was Robert (I keep switching the names for some reason).  I thought it was in the summer of 1865, after President Lincoln was murdered, but turns out it was early in the year, so you just embarrassed me! LOL

BTW I think Tad was the one who died in the White House...

I knew it had to be more, but the 4 titans immediately came to mind.

Morpheus, the unwoke.

Name a popular 50s scifi movie that was in color but had 2 sequels in b&w.
They will come back, come back again, As long as the red earth rolls. He never wasted a leaf or a tree. Do you think he would squander souls?" ― Ruyard Kipling

We all come from the goddess and to her we shall return, like a drop of rain flowing to the ocean.
