Local Note

The Schomburg Center's Manuscripts, Archives & Rare Book Division's copy in Sc Rare 177 S includes accession no. C628080 in ink inside the top right front of bound & original cover, top right of page [3], and again in the bottom left of page 47. It includes an inscription in ink on the top right of original front pink paper wrappers: "Charles [Folsom] from his friend Charles Sumner," and a red stamp: "Schomburg Collection" on the top left of the original cover. Probably one of the acquisitions made between 1926 and 1932, during Catherine A. Latimer, as curator and librarian years.
