RE: Hiram Hibbard pardon
I looked up Hiram Hibbard in "Don't Shoot That Boy - Abraham Lincoln and Military Justice" by Thomas Lowry.
For what it's worth, he wasn't listed. His offense may not have earned him the death penalty which this book focused on

Secondly, I noticed the first document Roger posted was typed. This appears to me to have been well after the date of 1865 on the document, as typewriters were not immediately commercially successful, until the 1880's and 1890's.

So when is this "Old Enough To Know Better" supposed to kick in?
