Sorry Joe, but it isn't Moore.

RE: Extra Credit Questions
I figured a California person would get it!
Yes, Anita, it was Walter Brennan. For the life of me, I can't imagine Brennan playing Lincoln. Best Rob Abraham Lincoln is the only man, dead or alive, with whom I could have spent five years without one hour of boredom. --Ida M. Tarbell

RE: Extra Credit Questions
Excellent, Steve! Yes, the image depicts the mob attacking the warehouse in Alton, Illinois, where Elijah Lovejoy's printing press was stored. The event happened on November 7, 1837. Lovejoy was a minister and abolitionist newspaper editor, and he was shot and killed by a pro-slavery mob which attacked the warehouse and destroyed the printing press. Abraham Lincoln was critical of mob violence in his 1838 Lyceum Address.
