Is This Abraham Lincoln?

the discolorazation the embalmer and mortician both refuted that fact

Marsha, could you please post the actual quotes from Sands and Brown that refute the fact? What I have read is that Sands and Brown were silent; in other words, they neither confirmed nor denied that the face became discolored and needed work as the train proceeded along the route. General Edward Townsend wired Stanton that the remains were in good shape (in New York), but I not seen the actual quotes from Brown and Sands to which you refer.
