"If I were to try to read, much less answer, all the attacks made on me, this shop might as well be closed for any other business. I do the very best I know how - the very best I can; and I mean to keep doing so until the end. If the end brings me out all right, what's said against me won't amount to anything. If the end brings me out wrong, ten angels swearing I was right would make no difference." Abe Lincoln

CIVIL WAR TIMES!
I live in Grass Valley, CA. I know you have reenactments in Nevada City. I was wondering if you would know anybody who might want a stack of Civil War Times magazines from the early 1960s.
I'm trying to find them a home.
Thanks, Alisa Austin
