Ms. Sara Rey Marcum attends a ball, 1909 By JIM On the surface, the postcard imaged here is just another bit of early 20th century ephemera, complete with a hastily scribbled note, puzzling signature, and one-cent stamp. Not far beneath the surface, however, lies the rest of the story. In early March 1909, Columbia native Sara Rey Marcum (Sallie or Daut to most who knew her), then teaching in Harrisonburg, Virginia, mailed a postcard to her 12-year-old niece, addressed to "Ruth Paull / Columbia / Ky." and postmarked March 6, 1909 at "Mount Vernon on the Potomac, VA." The description of the building, printed on the message side of the card, states: "The Pension Building with an area 200 by 400 feet, is the largest brick building in the world. At the Inauguration Balls, 18,000 people have gathered within its vast court. A feature of the exterior is the frieze in which are sculptured the marching troops of the Civil War."(This structure, located in Washington, D.C., occupies a full city block and served for nearly 40 years as the bureaucratic center for all things related to military pensions. It's now a memorial to Civil War veterans.) The note to young Ruth wasted neither words nor pencil lead: Article continues... click title or click here to read whole article. 2022-01-30 10:31:50 | Comments | Printable version | See topic Jim: History
