I am from Saunemin Il. and am very active in the restoration of Alberts house. I am very excited to learn that you have an original photo of Albert. We would very much like to have a good copy of this photo. I will gladly pay what ever it would cost to do this. Please let me know if this is possible. Thank you very much in advance. Al Arnolts

As with Al Arnolts, I also would like a good copy of
your photograph of Albert.
I have been a collector of Civil War artifacts for the past 30 years. Each year, I display my collection (free
of charge)at many museum and parks throughout the country.
As part of my display, I have the story of Albert Cashier. I receive more questions and good comments about
that story, than anything else displayed.
It would be great to have a good photo to put a face
with the story.
Thanks,
Jack
