&lt;p&gt;Whereas this council having heard the melancholy news of the assassination of the late President of the United States, Abraham Lincoln, therefore be it&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Resolved, That we, the mayor, aldermen, and commonalty of the city of Hamilton, in council assembled, deeply lament the sad occurrence, and also sincerely sympathize with the widow and bereaved family of the late President, and with the nation thus afflicted and wrongfully deprived of its Chief Magistrate, and we also feel that in thus expressing our views on this mournful subject, and in deprecating the diabolical act which deprived a neighboring nation of its chief head, we are only giving expression to the feelings entertained by the inhabitants of this city.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Resolved, That, as a mark of respect to the deceased President, the mayor be instructed to request the citizens to close their respective places of business during the time the funeral obsequies are being performed, which will take place on Wednesday, the 19th instant, between the hours of twelve o'clock noon and two p. m., and that the city bells toll during these hours.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-variant: small-caps;"&gt;Illustrious Sir&lt;/span&gt;: The common council, which has met this morning in an extraordinary sitting, has unanimously voted the following address, which you, illustrious sir, will have the kindness to transmit to your government:&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;blockquote&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;ldquo;The municipality of Naples, full of horror for the execrable crime which has deprived the great American nation of its magnanimous President, Abraham Lincoln, express to his successor, who represents that generous people, the profound grief which struck us on the news of that great calamity, and wish that the noble cause to which Lincoln&amp;rsquo;s life was consecrated, and for which it was lost, will soon obtain the full triumph, which will be the greatest conquest of modern civilization.&amp;rdquo;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

&lt;p&gt;Accept, illustrious sir, the testimonies of my esteem.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

                <text>&lt;p&gt;At a meeting of the mayor, aldermen, and councillors, being the municipal council of the borough of Northampton, held at the Town Hall in the same borough, on the 1st day of May, 1865&amp;mdash;present, the worshipful the mayor, Thomas Osbern, esquire, in the chair&amp;mdash;it was&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Unanimously resolved&lt;/em&gt;, That the members of this council, including persons of all parties in the state, desire to record the deep feeling of horror with which they have heard of the late atrocious murder of the President of the United States of America, and the attempted assassination of his Secretary of State, crimes deserving of the execration of mankind, and which the members of this council doubt not will prove to have been the acts of the guilty perpetrators exclusively.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;The council desire further to record their sympathy with the widow of the murdered Chief Magistrate under her bereavement, their condolence with the citizens of the republic, and their sincere trust that under the providential guidance of the Great Disposer of events the path of mercy and conciliation on which Mr. Lincoln had entered may be steadily trodden by his successor, and that the great and kindred nation over which he is summoned to preside may speedily recover from the deep wounds of civil war, and enjoy a bright future of liberty, peace, and prosperity in ever closer and more cordial alliance with our own branch of the English race.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;That two copies of the above resolutions be fairly made on vellum, authenticated by the signature of the worshipful the mayor and the common seal of the borough, and sent to his excellency the United States minister in this country, with a request that he will forward one copy to the proper authority of his own government and the other to Mrs. Lincoln.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;em&gt;An address of condolence, dated the 21st of June, 1865, from the municipality of Messina to the consul of the United States of America&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;To honor the name of a great citizen, one of the most liberal among nations, and to transmit his name to posterity, the municipal council voted in their sitting, the 13th of May last, and decided on giving the name of Abraham Lincoln to one of the principal streets which is shortly to be opened in the new quarter of Terranova in this city.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;This is an attestation of affection to the United States of America, to honor the memory of their indefatigable President, who fell a victim to treachery, but surrounded by the light of a sublime idea, &amp;ldquo;the freedom of slaves.&amp;rdquo; It is, finally, an homage to the great principles of liberty, without which whatever may be the civil event is false and illusory.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Be pleased, worthy sir, to accept, and have accepted by his excellency President Johnson, who now represents the government of the United States, this testimony of grief and sympathy which the people of Messina tribute to the great American nation.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p align="right"&gt;&lt;em&gt;The Mayor, President&lt;/em&gt;,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="signed"&gt;G. CHANCIAFARA&lt;/span&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;</text>

                  <text>Frank E. Stevens was a lawyer, banker, newspaper editor and writer based in Illinois. Stevens was born and educated in Dixon, Illinois. He studied law in Sycamore, Illinois, and was admitted to the bar in 1877. Shortly after that he moved to South Dakota where he operated the Beadle County National Bank until 1890 when he moved to Chicago and worked in a brokerage business. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In 1907 Stevens returned to Sycamore, Illinois, where he published the Dixon Weekly Citizen and later the Sycamore Tribune. He retired from the newspaper business in 1928 and was elected mayor of Sycamore in 1931. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Governor Henry Horner appointed Stevens to the War Records Division of the office of the Adjutant General. Stevens was a historian who authored several historical works including The Black Hawk War. Stevens used the majority of the items in the collection while researching and writing The Black Hawk War.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Black Hawk War (1832), although brief, has much significance for Native American history. In April, tribal groups of Sauk, Meskwakis, and Kickapoo, led by Chief Black Hawk of the Sauk, crossed the Mississippi River from Iowa into Illinois. Known as the British Band, they claimed lands under the 1804 Treaty of St. Louis, a treaty the whites disputed. Fearful, militia&amp;rsquo;s fired on the Native American delegation in what led to the Battle of Stillman&amp;rsquo;s Run, a resounding defeat for the militias. Black Hawk was eventually defeat, however, at the battles of Wisconsin Heights and Bad Axe. Historically, the Black Hawk War legitimized and strengthened forcible relocation of Native American tribes further west.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The finding aid for the Frank E. Stevens Papers, 1832-1939 at the Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library and Museum is located at: http://alplm-cdi.com/chroniclingillinois/items/show/610.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Photographs in this collection include images of several individuals connected to the Black Hawk War including Chief Shabbona, Major Isaiah Stillman, Brigadier General Milton K. Alexander, Colonel Nathan Boone, and Brigadier General Henry Atkinson. The collection also includes images of prominent Illinois residents from the mid and late 19th century including actress Mary Garden, William S. Hamilton, and Charles B. Farwell.</text>

Mary died in 1809 and Anna was responsible for the care of her two grandchildren, Henry and Harriet. In 1817 she, along with the children, came to Illinois and settled in Madison County. In 1832 Harriet Bartling married Nathaniel Buckmaster, a brick maker by trade, who had first come to Illinois in 1817. He served as a state representative in 1820-1822, and again, 1834-1836. He was elected Madison County sheriff in 1821 and served several consecutive terms. He was appointed Colonel in the Illinois militia in 1828 and commanded a battalion in the Black Hawk War. He was postmaster at Alton, 1838-1841 and warden at the Illinois State Penitentiary, 1842-1846. Buckmaster owned property in Madison County and operated the Madison County Ferry across the Mississippi. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Nathaniel and Harriet Buckmasters&amp;rsquo;s daughter, Catherine Buckmaster married Isaac Bush Curran, Sr.. Curran was born in Ithaca, New York, and worked as a jeweler when he came to Illinois in 1840. He was active in Democratic politics and was appointed Pension Agent for Illinois by President Buchanan from 1853-1858. He was private secretary and chief of staff for Governor Joel Matteson. Catherine and Isaac had two sons, Isaac B. Curran, Jr. and Singleton Douglas Curran.&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The link to the Buckmaster-Curran Family Papers 1801-1940 is:&amp;nbsp;http://alplm-cdi.com/chroniclingillinois/items/show/95.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Photographs in this collection include images of members of the Buckmaster and Curran families, postcards featuring Illinois landmarks, and gravesite pictures.</text>

              And sweet is the fragrance of wild flowers rare,
              In the sheen of green meadows that lie.
              But sweeter, by far, than all this,
              Is that innocent kiss, thrilled with exquisite bliss
              From the lisps of dear Maggie Maggee.

&lt;p&gt;OH, WHAR WILL I GO IF DIS WAR BREAKS DE COUNTRY UP.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Written by J.B. MURPHY
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;1.  Oh where will I go if dis war breaks de country up, And de darkeys hab to scatter around,  Dis dam bobolition, mancipation and sesession Am a gwine to run de nigger in de ground!  De bobolitioin here, De secession dare, And neather one nor t'other of 'em's right, But one says dis, de oder says dat, And dey both got de country in a fight, But what can a poor nigger do.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;2.  Now what is de use b dis jangulating fighting? Botheration to de country so forlorn?  Why don't dey tend to bussness, making boats and building railroads? While de niggers raise de cotton and de corn, But Massachusetts dar and South Carolina here, Disturb dis happy Union wid de growl, One says dey shall, de oder says dey shan't, And Uncle Sam has got to stand it all, But what can a poor nigger do.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;3.  Oh I wish dat de white folks ob dis great confederation, Would only quit dar quarrells and dar fight, And stop dar cannonading, marching, shooting, and bombarding, And be willing for to use each oder right.  For it's very plain to see dat de end would be, Dat dey'd know each oder better dan before, And dey'd made up dar minds, dat in all future times, Dey would not go and do it any more, And dat's what I want dem for to do.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;4.  What a deuc'd shame it is dis sesession revolution, Am a useing up de bussness ob de land!  While trade an navigation, merchandising, speculation Hab very nearly come to a stand!  De crops won't be grow'd, De meadows won't be mow'd, 'Kase dar's nobudy left for to tend 'em, Dar's a scarcity it seems, ob cabbaage peas an' beans, Kase dar's nobudy home for to send 'em.  Den what's a hungry nigger gwine to do.

              And sweet is the fragrance of wild flowers rare,
              In the sheen of green meadows that lie.
              But sweeter, by far, than all this,
              Is that innocent kiss, thrilled with exquisite bliss

&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Written by J.B. MURPHY
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;1.  Oh where will I go if dis war breaks de country up, And de darkeys hab to scatter around,  Dis dam bobolition, mancipation and sesession Am a gwine to run de nigger in de ground!  De bobolitioin here, De secession dare, And neather one nor t'other of 'em's right, But one says dis, de oder says dat, And dey both got de country in a fight, But what can a poor nigger do.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;2.  Now what is de use b dis jangulating fighting? Botheration to de country so forlorn?  Why don't dey tend to bussness, making boats and building railroads? While de niggers raise de cotton and de corn, But Massachusetts dar and South Carolina here, Disturb dis happy Union wid de growl, One says dey shall, de oder says dey shan't, And Uncle Sam has got to stand it all, But what can a poor nigger do.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;3.  Oh I wish dat de white folks ob dis great confederation, Would only quit dar quarrells and dar fight, And stop dar cannonading, marching, shooting, and bombarding, And be willing for to use each oder right.  For it's very plain to see dat de end would be, Dat dey'd know each oder better dan before, And dey'd made up dar minds, dat in all future times, Dey would not go and do it any more, And dat's what I want dem for to do.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;4.  What a deuc'd shame it is dis sesession revolution, Am a useing up de bussness ob de land!  While trade an navigation, merchandising, speculation Hab very nearly come to a stand!  De crops won't be grow'd, De meadows won't be mow'd, 'Kase dar's nobudy left for to tend 'em, Dar's a scarcity it seems, ob cabbaage peas an' beans, Kase dar's nobudy home for to send 'em.  Den what's a hungry nigger gwine to do.

                  <text>Joseph Capps and his sons founded the Jacksonville Woolen Mills in 1839. They began making men&amp;rsquo;s pants in 1885 and were incorporated as J. Capps &amp;amp; Sons, Ltd. in 1886 as a manufacturer of textiles and men&amp;rsquo;s clothing. Capps came to Jacksonville from Kentucky where he had learned the trade of wool carding in Louisville. Most farmers had sheep and did carding of the wool and home manufacture of yarns for knitting and weaving. Capps carding plant eliminated this tedious and time consuming process from the farmer&amp;rsquo;s duties. By 1852 Capps produced and marketed a finished wool cloth and during the Civil War they produced blankets and overcoats. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Joseph died in 1872 and his sons, Stephen, William, Joseph, and Alfred took over the business. In 1885 there were very few men&amp;rsquo;s clothing stores, but the Capps started making pants and their salesman started selling pants to retail stores instead of cloth. By the 1890&amp;rsquo;s they were making suits. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Around the turn of the century they started making blankets for the Indians on western reservations which were then sold as Indian blankets. After advertising in Saturday Evening Post, they became popular with the general population but the company quit making blankets in 1915. In 1904 the old buildings were renovated and a new factory was built. The sale of cloth was down but the production and sales of men&amp;rsquo;s suits grew rapidly. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In the 1920&amp;rsquo;s the company started buying much of the wool they were using in their suits. During the Spanish-American War and World War I, Capps produced uniforms for the military. During World War II they made &amp;ldquo;pea coats&amp;rdquo; and the Navy awarded the company a &amp;ldquo;Certificate of Achievement&amp;rdquo;. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Robert Capps, the son of Alfred Capps, had planned to go to medical school but he joined the Army when America entered WWI. When he came back, he went to work for the family business as a salesman in Wisconsin and in 1944 he became the company president. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The original mill closed in 1927 and was torn down several years later. In the 1940&amp;rsquo;s Capps built a new one story factory. They started a business in 1937, Robert&amp;rsquo;s Tailoring Company, with Harry Capps as president, but it was unsuccessful and in 1942 it was liquidated. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The company celebrated its 125th anniversary in 1964, with Robert still acting as president. The company was the most long lived manufacturing company in Illinois. Robert died in 1968 and ten years later the company closed.</text>

                  <text>Joseph Capps and his sons founded the Jacksonville Woolen Mills in 1839. They began making men&amp;rsquo;s pants in 1885 and were incorporated as J. Capps &amp;amp; Sons, Ltd. in 1886 as a manufacturer of textiles and men&amp;rsquo;s clothing. Capps came to Jacksonville from Kentucky where he had learned the trade of wool carding in Louisville. Most farmers had sheep and did carding of the wool and home manufacture of yarns for knitting and weaving. Capps carding plant eliminated this tedious and time consuming process from the farmer&amp;rsquo;s duties. By 1852 Capps produced and marketed a finished wool cloth and during the Civil War they produced blankets and overcoats. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Joseph died in 1872 and his sons, Stephen, William, Joseph, and Alfred took over the business. In 1885 there were very few men&amp;rsquo;s clothing stores, but the Capps started making pants and their salesman started selling pants to retail stores instead of cloth. By the 1890&amp;rsquo;s they were making suits. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Around the turn of the century they started making blankets for the Indians on western reservations which were then sold as Indian blankets. After advertising in Saturday Evening Post, they became popular with the general population but the company quit making blankets in 1915. In 1904 the old buildings were renovated and a new factory was built. The sale of cloth was down but the production and sales of men&amp;rsquo;s suits grew rapidly. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In the 1920&amp;rsquo;s the company started buying much of the wool they were using in their suits. During the Spanish-American War and World War I, Capps produced uniforms for the military. During World War II they made &amp;ldquo;pea coats&amp;rdquo; and the Navy awarded the company a &amp;ldquo;Certificate of Achievement&amp;rdquo;. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Robert Capps, the son of Alfred Capps, had planned to go to medical school but he joined the Army when America entered WWI. When he came back, he went to work for the family business as a salesman in Wisconsin and in 1944 he became the company president. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The original mill closed in 1927 and was torn down several years later. In the 1940&amp;rsquo;s Capps built a new one story factory. They started a business in 1937, Robert&amp;rsquo;s Tailoring Company, with Harry Capps as president, but it was unsuccessful and in 1942 it was liquidated. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The company celebrated its 125th anniversary in 1964, with Robert still acting as president. The company was the most long lived manufacturing company in Illinois. Robert died in 1968 and ten years later the company closed.</text>

                <text>&lt;p&gt;[Translation.]&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;The assassination of Abraham Lincoln has awakened a feeling of horror and indignation in every honest mind. The head of a generous and illustrious nation, which with noble perseverance he was laboring to restore to concord and power, his death marks a memorable epoch in the history of the United States, that in which the unfortunate African race was emancipated from the cruel hands of slave power. The death of a great man is certainly an immense misfortune; but Lincoln has left behind him in America a great people, who share his generous ideas and maintain the holy cause of humanity; and though deplorable blindness, low interests, or fanaticism, have feloniously removed the glorious head of the American republic, there remain men educated in his political ideas, a whole people trained under wise institutions, and the flag of the Union will be respected and feared from the Mexican Gulf to Canada, from the Atlantic to the Pacific.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;The Mutual Help Association of Sassari believes that it would fail in its duties to the solidarity of peoples if, in the sorrows of a brother people in America, it failed to protest against the abominable crime which has quenched a life spent in the service of the most sacred human interests, and to express its deep mourning for this calamitous event.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Sons of a nation which but recently vindicated its liberties and independence against foreign and domestic oppressors, and which suddenly lost a great man who, more than any other, contributed to our national enfranchisement, the Italians, above every other people, can appreciate and share the grief of the Americans.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Be pleased, Signor consul, to report these sentiments to your government, and be assured of the respect with which, in the name of the Mutual Help Association of Sassari, I have the honor to sign myself your most obedient servant,&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

                <text>&lt;p&gt;[Translation.]&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;The assassination of Abraham Lincoln has awakened a feeling of horror and indignation in every honest mind. The head of a generous and illustrious nation, which with noble perseverance he was laboring to restore to concord and power, his death marks a memorable epoch in the history of the United States, that in which the unfortunate African race was emancipated from the cruel hands of slave power. The death of a great man is certainly an immense misfortune; but Lincoln has left behind him in America a great people, who share his generous ideas and maintain the holy cause of humanity; and though deplorable blindness, low interests, or fanaticism, have feloniously removed the glorious head of the American republic, there remain men educated in his political ideas, a whole people trained under wise institutions, and the flag of the Union will be respected and feared from the Mexican Gulf to Canada, from the Atlantic to the Pacific.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;The Mutual Help Association of Sassari believes that it would fail in its duties to the solidarity of peoples if, in the sorrows of a brother people in America, it failed to protest against the abominable crime which has quenched a life spent in the service of the most sacred human interests, and to express its deep mourning for this calamitous event.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Sons of a nation which but recently vindicated its liberties and independence against foreign and domestic oppressors, and which suddenly lost a great man who, more than any other, contributed to our national enfranchisement, the Italians, above every other people, can appreciate and share the grief of the Americans.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Be pleased, Signor consul, to report these sentiments to your government, and be assured of the respect with which, in the name of the Mutual Help Association of Sassari, I have the honor to sign myself your most obedient servant,&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

                  <text>William H. Herdman, a blacksmith and early resident of Mount Vernon, Illinois, was the son of Robert and Jane Hanson Herdman. He married Mary A. Kirby, the daughter of Moses and Lydia Williamson Kirby. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Herdman moved to Mount Vernon from Pennsylvania in 1850. In 1865 his brother, Thomas, a Methodist Episcopal minister, came from Ohio to head the Methodist Seminary at Mount Vernon which closed down during the Civil War. He remained there for four years and then acted as minister for several different churches in the area. In 1890 he was elected president of McKendree College. He remained at the college in various positions for approximately ten years. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;William Hamilton and Mary had eight daughters including Ada I. Herdman, Ina B. Herdman, Florence V. Herdman, Ellen A. Herdman Gowenlock, Henrietta "Etta" Herdman Doud, Octavia L. Herdman Huff, and Grace Herdman Harris. Henrietta "Etta" Herdman married Menzer Fairchild Doud of St. Louis, Missouri, a newspaper writer for various papers in Kansas and Missouri. Their daughter, Grace, was a school teacher and served as chairman of the Missouri State Association of Childhood Education in 1939. Their oldest daughter, Ada, was also a schoolteacher and taught in the Mount Vernon area for many years.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Henrietta Doud's youngest daughter, Virginia, provided many of the photo identifications on the photographs.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Photographs in this collection include images of the Herdman family with a high number of images featuring the families of Henrietta Doud, Grace Harris, Ellen Gowenlock, and Octavia Huff.</text>

&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Dear Mr. Grossman:
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;pre&gt;    Your show last January at the Maria Harriman Galleries impressed me greatly.  I found in your paintings and watercolors a vast understanding of nature, a mature richness that has never been surpassed.  There was in them a true vision, the vision of a talent that step by step came to a truly universal approach.  Your paintings, Mr. Grossman, have something ripe and majestic and earthy.
    Because I so appreciate your work I would like to buy a canvass of yours.  Is there perhaps something I may purchase that is not too expensive?  Please let me know.
                                                            Yours, respectfully
