290) Henry Dashiell Burroughs, AP B&W still photographer, rode in Cam-era Car #2 in motorcade:
Position in Motorcade

We, the pool, were dismayed to find our pool car shoved back to about #11 position in the motorcade. We protested, but it was too late.


When we ar-rived, Air Force One had been cordoned off by Army troops, but the ramp was still in place. Before we could worry about what to do, the plane door opened and out popped Maj. Cecil Staughten [sic]. He saw us stand-ing by and came over. He had a roll of film in his hand, and announced that he had just photographed the swearing-in of President Johnson, and asked me if AP would process the pictures and pool them with UPI. Can-cellare and I readily agreed and that's how that famous picture aboard Air Force One was transmitted to the world. Hope this is of some help.

 

Notes: Cecil William Stoughton photographs President Johnson—hands the rolls of film to Henry to Process:  Henry is the first person to view the photograph that is now a part of major history

SHERWOOD ANDERSON A WRITER IN AMERICA VOLUME 1
In 1880 there were three harness makers in town rather than the two, including Irwin, 1875, possibly; however, the departure was somehow linked to financial troubles on the part of Irwin’s brother, Benjamin Dickey Anderson, who seems to have been at this time, though no one knows for how long, a harness maker in the village of Fairhaven nearby to both Morning Sun and Camden, and who was probably the Anderson of oral Tradition who “skipped out of. . .Fairhaven owning a bill for leather.” Whatever the reason, the local newspaper, the Camden Herald, noted in its “Personal” Column for the issue of September 1, 1877, that I.M. Anderson will leave here in a few days for Independence, Ohio. Where he will engage in  business.” Once again the Andersons were taking up their migration generally northward through Ohio.

ISBN 978-0299-2153-9  By Walter Bates Rideout
NOTES TO PAGES 17-18 FOOT NOTE 29
The somewhat confused evidence on this matter is given TRTW, page 496-98, and Dinsmoor, “An Inquiry,” p. 7. In addition one should note in Morgan’s Directory of Preble County, p. 163, that a B.D. Anderson” was then dealing in “Horses and & Saddles,” in “Fair Haven.” Since Benjamin Dickey Anderson was a harness maker, it seems probable that this was Irwin’s younger brother, an identification strengthened by the conflicting stories as to the town from which an Anderson left without paying a bill. Further, this identification may help explain Benjamin Dickey’s removal by 1886 to California.
