These are the last bits from these 1864-65 Ladies Friend Magazine engravings. A couple last gowns, some story illustrations and several snippets of songs, including a tribute to President Lincoln after his death. (April 15, 1865)
I hope you enjoyed these as much as I have. They are a peek into a life we'll never know.

I am always asking you to look at the details, but oh, my goodness. Can you BELIEVE those hairstyles? The effort it would have taken produce and wear these works of art...amazing.
