Marvelous Memory and a Senator's Exact Editorial Recall
A March American Magazine piece details Theodore E. Burton's prodigious memory. He could dictate the first 20 lines of a March 1865 New York editorial from memory at age 14 in 1865, later proving the text matched the library copy exactly. Burton is cited for recalling harbor depths and river tonnage and spending figures for U S waterways.
