This unique gravestone belongs to Ina Palmer who is buried in Mt. Zion Cemetery in Richland City. She was married to William H. Axton & had two daughters, Hallie Dee Axton and Hazel Marie Axton—probably the same girls pictured in this c.1900-1905 photo. Photo from @IndianaAlbum

This evening in 1861, Lincoln is a guest at the Bates House, the best hotel in Indianapolis. At an impromptu reception in the lobby, he is almost crushed by 3,000 people who clamor to shake his hand.

The sporting outfits in this, the earliest known photo of a basketball game in IN, may look constricting but compared to everyday dress of 1899, they’re positively freeing! This photo, from the @IndianaAlbum, shows Shortridge High playing a YWCA team. #WhenINPlayed #ThenAndNow
