Lincoln's wallet - the newspaper clippings
I have a question about the newspaper clippings which were in the wallet of President Lincoln the night he was shot. Some accounts say that there were 8 clippings: (1) Emancipation of Missouri; (2) The Disaffection Among Southern Soldiers ; (3) John Bright on the Presidency; (4) President Lincoln; (5) The Message of the Governor of Missouri; (6) A Conscript's Epistle to Jefferson Davis; (7) Sherman's Orders For His March and (8) President Lincoln's letter to Mr. Hackett. I’ve found and read them all, thanks to Google. Other accounts mention 9 clippings. The above 8 and (9) The Two Platforms: Lincoln & Johnson. Is that true? And if true, where can I find a link to this clipping? Or has someone a readable jpg image? I’ve not found it. Thanks as always!
