Quote:She showed me the quill-feathered pen that Booth used to write with.

By the mid 19th Century (1865 in particular) most folk wrote with either pen and ink (a wooden handled or metal handled) stylus - or they wrote with pencil. They MAY have still used quills in the backwoods or in the army - but I really don't think so....

Any suggestions?
