Episode 2: Forgotten Political Figures
Driving down Brick Road or Sample Street, one assumes their common names are references former brick pavers, or perhaps a free sample of something - and one would be wrong. Learn about the legendary political figures Samuel Sample and Abraham Lincoln Brick in this episode of A Bend in Time.
While in Congress, Samuel Sample corresponded regularly regarding political matters with Schuyler Colfax, who ran the local Whig newspaper at the time. Read his letters at The History Museum's online collections portal.
Part of Series 6: Street Names, Volume 1
A Bend in Time is presented by The History Museum in South Bend, Indiana and hosted by Aaron Helman.
