    Thanks lifeasdaddy for the link to the NYTimes article and for connecting the photographs from this group that were taken at the same event at Gettysburg. We'll fill in the caption information next time we update this record.

    There are a bunch of other photographs in the Bain Collection related to this event, although not yet uploaded to Flickr. Most of them are consistent with the newspaper description of the event, such as the tented encampment etcetera. You can find them by searching for "gettysburg" in the Bain Collection at the LOC. This link should work for the search page: lcweb2.loc.gov/pp/ggbainquery.html

    During a debate in the U. S. Senate, Thomas Riley Marshall coined the immortal phrase, "What this country needs is a really good five-cent cigar." (As Vice President, he presided over the Senate.)
