RE: Distribution of Some of the Death Clothes
Amen - a gentleman and a scholar in the same degree as those that I claim as mentors: Hall, Brennan, Keesler, Steers, Alford, Ownsbey, and Hanchett.

Reignette - I am now going to pick your brain. For the last decade, we have heard one doctor in particular promote his theory that Lincoln suffered from Marfan's Syndrome. As I understand it, one of the characteristics of this condition is unusually long extremities on the victims.

We know that Mr. Lincoln was taller than most men of his day; however, using the measurements for his clothing purchased at Brooks Brothers as a basis, is there any indication that his arms and legs were disproportionately long for his body? I hope that makes sense...
