Was Lincoln’s coffin opened in February 1866 ?

[RJNorton]

Who were the men present at the December 1865 viewing? Were the 3 men reported in the clipping in question reported to be present then?

I believe the 6 for the December 21, 1865, viewing were Governor Richard J. Oglesby, Orlin H. Miner, Jesse K. Dubois, Newton Bateman, 0zias M. Hatch, and David L. Phillips.

Scott, if I am correct on the above 6, then 3 of the names "overlap."

All were original members of the Board of Directors of the Lincoln Monument Association.
