years ago Abraham Lincoln was shot
by a crazed Booth, collapsed on June
10th burying several hundred people
in the debris Of the four floors.
Twenty-one were killed and 49
injured, some fatally. The building
was being used by the government as
the pension and records division OF
the surgeon generals office and those
killed and manned were employees OF
the division. 1t was strange CON-
cidence that the crash came on the
very day that the funeral of the
brother of the assassin Booth was
being held.

be circulated.
