    Notes

    Anonymous lithograph after a lithograph of the same title by New York artist, John L. Magee. Some minor stylistic differences.

    Factual error: In this print Brooks holds his gutta-percha cane by the knob. According to eyewitnesses, he repeatedly hit Sumner's head with the massive gold knob, instead.
