Mary Lincoln's engraved opera glasses?

[Linda Anderson]

Thank you, Roger, for contacting the park.

As you said, there's no mention of Mary's opera glasses, but if Kent did find them, maybe he didn't think them of sufficient importance to mention them in his letter. Of course, like Dave wrote, it's odd that he never did mention them as far as we know if he did indeed find them.

The description of Laura Keene holding the dying president's head in her lap is ghastly. It reminds me of Jackie Kennedy holding her husband's head in her lap after he was shot.
