NOTES

I cannot account for the discrepency between the printed town on the photograph of "Dansville, N.Y." and the written "Danville, Ill.".
Although I cannot find an Edward A. Brooks of the right age for the photograph in Dansville, N. Y., I do find the one listed to the
right in Danville, Illinois. Perhaps he was traveling and thought it would be nice to have his photograph taken in a town with very
similar name as his home town.
