PROPERTY OF A CONNECTICUT FAMILY
Henry's talent and mental acuity did not wane in his later years. At age 76, and still active at the National Academy of Design, his recall of the details in Johnstown 54 prior, add a footnote to American history. The poignancy of his remembrance of a town filled with soldiers in 1860's and ''(So it is now)'' in 1917, is a moving analogy of a country in turmoil.
