Notably: With a Pittsburgh dateline, today’s New York Times’s front page, from 1907, carried the following four paragraphs at the bottom of the page: “Relatives of Mrs. Elizabeth Johnston, wife of a for-mer wealthy farmer of Bellevernon, have just made a discovery relative to the disposal of the woman’s remains, she having died at the county home about two weeks ago, which will result in an investigation. When Mrs. Johnston’s relatives went for the body after her death they were informed that it had been sent to the State Anatomical Society at Philadelphia. The relatives demanded the return of the body, and yesterday it arrived at Bellevernon. Funeral services were held in the United Brethren Church. Just before the interment several relatives asked that the coffin be opened. Inside was a body, but they failed to recognize the remains. Closer inspection on the part of the undertaker led to the disclosure that the body was made up of portions of several dead persons, which had been cleverly sewed together. Two left legs had been used on the body. The relatives were horror-stricken at the discovery. The body was buried, but threats are made that serious charges will be made against the members of the Anatomical Society.” It appears, from a quick google search, that the Anatomical Society has been dismembered.

… after President Kennedy’s assassination, Lyndon Johnson recalled: “I knew that, as President and as a man, I would use every ounce of strength I possessed to gain justice for the black American. My strength as President was then tenuous—I had no strong mandate from the people; I had not been elected to that office. But I recognized that the moral force of the Presidency is often stronger than the political force. I knew that a President can appeal to the best in our people or the worst; he can call for action or live with inaction.” To hear such voices is to be reminded of what we have lost, but also what can one day be recaptured.”

–From Jon Meacham’s The Soul of America: The Battle for Our Better Angels (2018).
