[ca. 1855]
Subject:

Note:
Identified by collector Zelda Mackay as "Judge [David S.] Terry, as a boy, who killed Senator Broderick in a duel." However,
Judge Terry (1823-1889) was an adult by 1850. Subjects may, perhaps, be members of his family of the next generation.
"Zelda Mackay notes that she acquired this image ""from Stockton descendants"" [of Judge David Terry, presumably.]"
