RE: Book recommendations
Thanks, Joe. That is exactly what I was looking for.
And boy do I feel foolish because we have that exact document of Hazelton's account at Surratt House, complete with signature. It was given to us years ago by the late, great collector Donald Dow of Texas. It used to hang in our small library at the Visitors' Center until the library moved to its own building (now the James O. Hall Research Center). We removed the framed piece from display because it was starting to degrade. After visiting the link you posted and seeing the asking price, I have a new-found respect for it! We also need to change our estimated value. I also noticed a major error in the description listed at the bottom. They state that Hazelton gave this statement on the same day that Robert Todd Lincoln was being buried in a quiet New England cemetery. Arlington National Cemetery is anything but quiet and in New England. |
