Missing document signed by Lincoln accidentally found at a Pa. college

My guess is that Joe is correct. That was a very typical way of insulating homes in earlier days. Newspapers also lined trunks and dresser drawers, and we all know that newspapers make wonderful window cleaners. In my family's attic, I have found old papers being used to fill space between photos and prints and the backing to the frames. Of course, I never find one that's valuable!
