RE: Tough Tarbell Trivia

However, Tarbell is talking about seeing Lincoln in person, not through the photographer's lens. Note "the living man himself." NO, she was talking about "see[ing] the great soul of Lincoln in Barnard's statue." In the statue photograph that I saw, President Lincoln's face looked like it was created out of volcano lava. "So very difficult a matter is it to trace and find out the truth of anything by history." -- Plutarch |

RE: Tough Tarbell Trivia
David,
You don't like it. Big surprise. I'm too busy working on something that matters to play semantics with you. Best Rob Abraham Lincoln in the only man, dead or alive, with whom I could have spent five years without one hour of boredom. --Ida M. Tarbell
I want the respect of intelligent men, but I will choose for myself the intelligent. --Carl Sandburg
