Description: William V. Rathvon was only nine years old when he watched and listened to Abraham Lincoln deliver the famous Gettysburg address. Decades later, he recorded his memories of that occasion on a 78 rpm record. That sound file is reproduced here in RealAudio format.
Lost and Found Sound: The Stories Quest for Sound curator Jay Allison unearthed a unique recording: the voice of William V. Rathvon, who as a nine-year-old boy, watched and listened to Abraham Lincoln deliver his address at Gettysburg in November 1863. The story was told in 1938 and recorded on a 78 r.p.m. record.
