HARPER'S WEEKLY, New York, May 6, 1865  This issue remains one of the most desired of the Civil War era, if not the 19th century, as much of it deals with the assassination and funeral of President Abraham Lincoln. The entire front page is a print captioned: "President Lincoln At Home" showing him reading a book to his son. This very image was made into a postage stamp by the United States Post Office. An inside page has a dramatic full page print captioned: "Scene at the Death Bed of President Lincoln" showing many standing around him. Another full pg. print is captioned: "President Lincoln's Funeral Procession in Washington City" and yet another captioned: "President Lincoln's Funeral--Citizens View the Body at the City Hall, New York." A halfpg. print shows Lincoln's coffin on the catafalque used in the funeral procession in New York, and smaller prints shows "Secretary Seward's Attempted Assassination" and "Ford's Theatre at Washington" and "View of a Portion of 10th St., Opposite Ford's Theatre." The doublepage centerfold is another very dramatic print captioned: "President Lincoln's Funeral--Services at the White House, April 19, 1865." There is also much related text on the funeral with articles headed "The President's Funeral in New York" "The Truest Mourners" and "President Lincoln's Funeral". Complete in 16 pages.

NEW YORK TRIBUNE, New York May 12, 1865 Surrender of Dick Taylor It Occurs on the 4th Inst. The Terms the Same as Those Accorded Lee. Archival mend to a large tear on an inside leaf, ftpg. has two small holes along the fold. Uncut. "Richard Taylor (1826-1879) A Confederate General with no formal military training, Taylor served with distinction and in 1865 surrendered the last organized Confederate forces east of the Mississippi. Born in Kentucky, the son of President Zachary Taylor, Richard studied at Harvard, Edinburgh, and Yale, before becoming a Louisiana sugar planter. Elected colonel of the Ninth Louisiana Infantry at the wars outset, he and his regiment reached Virginia too late for the First Battle of Manassas. Taylor was a brother-in-law of President Jefferson Davis, and rumor had it that in the fall of 1861 he was offered the post of quartermaster general of the Confederate army. If so, he declined it, but from time to time throughout the war he continued to be the beneficiary of Daviss favoritism. In October he was promoted to brigadier general and given command of a Louisiana brigade that became part of Richard S. Ewells division. Taylor served with distinction in the Shenandoah Valley campaign during the spring of 1862 but was kept out of the Seven Days Battle by rheumatiod arthritis Recovering within a few weeks, he was promoted to major general and was assigned to command of the District of Western' Louisiana in August 1862. Although dreaming of retaking New Orleans, he generally found himself falling back before Federal forays such as Maj. Gen. Nathaniel P. Bankss April 1863 Bayou Teche expedition. At the urging of Trans Mississippi commander E. Kirby Smith, who was himself under pressure from Richmond, Taylor moved against Ulysses S. Grants supply lines on the west bank of the Mississippi opposite Vicksburg. The attempt was a failure and Grants campaign culminated in the capture of that key Confederate stronghold. Taylor was forced to fall back before Bankss Red River expedition in the spring of 1864 but defeated Banks at the Battle of Mansfield, Louisiana, south of Shreveport, or April 8, 1864. Outnumbered twelve thousand to nine thousand in troops engaged, Taylor inflicted double his own casualties and captured twenty cannons and two hundred supply wagons. Although defeated the next day at Pleasant Hill and ordered by Smith to fall back temporarily or Shreveport, he had succeeded in forcing the withdrawal o: Bankss ill-fated expedition. Rewarded with a promotion to lieutenant general, Taylor was nevertheless bitter toward Smith, blaming him for Bankss escape. He thus welcomed orders to take his troop! across the Mississippi for service in the East. Finding the river too heavily patrolled by the U.S. Navy, he had to remain in the Trans-Mississippi until August 22, 1864 when he was ordered to go east personally to take command of the Department of Alabama, Mississippi, and Eastern Louisiana. On January 23, 1865, Taylor was named as successor to John Bell Hood as commander of the remnants of the Army of Tennessee, which Hood had wrecked at Franklin. and Nashville. As such, Taylors prime role was shipping his units off to the Carolinas to oppose William Tecumseh Sherman. On May 4, 1865, he surrendered to Gen Canby at Citronelle, Al. After the war, Taylor was active Democratic party politics in Louisiana, opposing reconstruction. In 1879, the year of his death, he published his reminiscences of the war, Destruction and Reconstruction, considered one of the best memoirs of the war. He is buried in Metaire Cemetery in Louisiana." Sources: Taylor Camp Members
