Yale has put this archive on the net.
I hope you didn't have anything else to do today
Searchable by county.

If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen.

No photos from the county in which I grew up. Neglected then, neglected now.

And it's not correctly organized. I just picked a Virginia county and it included pictures from a town with a name similar to the town/county they claimed it was in, but is actually 2-3 counties away.
I wish the Ring had never come to me. I wish none of this had happened.

So do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us. There are other forces at work in this world, Frodo, besides the will of evil. Bilbo was meant to find the Ring. In which case, you also were meant to have it. And that is an encouraging thought
