Miner wrote a wonderfully positive review of Ream's sculpture of Lincoln. He had an artist's eye in comparison to her many critics.

As for Charles, it follows I knew nothing of this story. A pickle indeed! What ever happened to him after the war?

He lived until 1892, but I'm not where I can check Stephen Berry's book about the Todds for details. After his adventures down South, he seems to have found it prudent to take a trip to Europe. He and Margaret were in Paris in October 1863, according to a letter from Betsy Todd to Elodie Todd Dawson.
