As for Vinnie Ream - I wonder what a harp cost back then. It costs as much as a car now...

Wow, that was quick Steve. Congrats. Also congrats to Eva - who now needs to explain the relationship to the opera and "Robert," whom I assume is Robert Lincoln??

My source also gave a tidbit related to Walt Whitman's attending the same opera there in April and exiting the theater to hear the newsboys shouting that Ft. Sumter had been fired upon.
