Description: Original Steel Plate Antique Engraved Reverend Bishop Charles P. Mcilvainewith a Facsimile Signature Size 10.50" x 8" inches Already a prominent churchman and educator, McIlvaine also served his country as a diplomat. Shortly after the outbreak of the Civil War, President Lincoln asked him to go to England to argue against British recognition of the Confederacy. He often had coffee at Buckingham Palace, lunched with faculty members at Oxford, conversed with cabinet members, and influenced debate in the House of Commons. McIlvaine died in Florence, Italy in March, 1873. His body, carried through England on its journey home to Ohio, was honoured for four days in Westminster Abbey. Apart from the ‘honorary’ American citizen, Sir Winston Churchill, McIlvaine was the only American to this day to lie-in-state at Westminster. His pall-bearers included the Earl of Shaftesbury, Benjamin Moxon (of the American Legation) and the Earl of Harrowby. ________________________________ All of our items are placed in acid free sleeves & stored in a dry, smoke-free, temperature controlled environment.They are packed carefully with hard board on both sides.
