RE: Exhumation of Conspirators
The references for the two article images above, in the order Roger posted them, are:

1. The Wilkes-Barre Record (PA) 13 Dec. 1881 pg. 1 (note this is also the earliest version of the article I could find)

2. Rolla Herald (Rolla, MO) 29 Dec. 1881 pg. 1

There is no specific significance in choosing the Rolla newspaper article image, both versions of the article appear in multiple newspapers. So far, I haven't been able to find any "I don't think I would" versions printed on 13 Dec. 1881. The earliest of that version that I've found so far was from 16 Dec. 1881:

Bismark Tribune (ND) 16 Dec. 1881 (beginning in the middle of column 4):

https://chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/lccn/...d-1/seq-5/

So somebody felt the need to alter the article just a day (or 3) after its initial printing in the Traveller. For some context, I should point out that the date given for the original article in the Traveller (12 Dec.) was during the trial of Charles Guiteau for the assassination of President Garfield.
