Fred Petersen "sold" relics
I hope everyone at the Surratt meeting is well. I am jealous I could not attend.

Anyway, I just finished "Lincoln's Last Battleground" and read where Fred Petersen sold several scraps of paper blotted in Lincoln's blood with an inscription of the same in his hand on the morning of the 15th before he realized how unseemly that appeared. (Although since he got his samples from the main hall floor, I would bet that it was actually Rathbone's blood, but who knows.)

Are any of these relics known to survive?

Heath
