There are several thousand negatives in the vaults that have not yet
been catalogued. No negative is registered until its authenticity is
proved beyond a doubt. The testimony of hundreds of veterans is secured
in many instances before the locality of the negative is established.
The warriors who participated in these scenes are fast passing away and
the work of identification is progressing as rapidly as absolute
accuracy will allow. At the National Encampment at Saratoga hundreds of
"unknown" negatives were identified by soldiers who saw them taken and
offered their affidavits. Requests have been received from Grand Army
Posts for enlargements of the rare photographs of Lincoln in the tent
with McClellan at Antietam, of the Armies in Camp, and other views, the
existence of which has been hitherto unknown. Mr. Eaton authorizes the
enlargement of any negative for this purpose, providing that it is to be
treasured in the hall of a Grand Army Post. All requests must be sent
direct, accompanied by references, and no enlargement will be allowed
until it bears the written signature of Edward B. Eaton, Hartford,
Connecticut.
