Thank you, Joan, I see your pp 177-179 reference in Miller's book as being from the 'New York Herald,' 1877. However, I think that Miller has mangled the citation, that it is really from 1895, and from the 'Philadelphia Inquirer.' Much thanks! Now to see if the story can be traced further back, in time...

I checked my Francis Miller book "An Inspiring Story for boys", Pages 177 to 179. The story is recorded in the New York Times in 1877. Complete Times article is in the Miller book.
