Scrapbook of nine items related to the nationwide funeral and mourning ceremonies for President Abraham Lincoln between April and May 1865. Items include special train schedules (including one printed on silk), a railroad pass; a governmental pass to view and/or accompany the presidential remains; a mourning badge with an original tintype photograph of President Lincoln; and a letter from General Edward D. Townsend, officer in charge of escorting the remains from Washington, DC to Springfield, Ill., written to his wife "Nannie" on April 28 1865, recounting his emotions and experiences. The original compiler of the scrapbook is unknown. It has been attributed to E. D. Townsend, but the materials used to make the scrapbook (binding, type-written labels, etc.) date from the mid-20th century.
