Lydia Hamilton Smith, housekeeper for Thaddeus Stevens, original portrait by Charles Bird King, owned by Hager family. Note from Rebecca Beal to Mr. Heiges regarding the portrait is with this photo. Note reads: "Mr. Heiges, Thanks for clipping just another error per picture! The Frick Library agreed that the portrait of Lydia Smith is nothing like the style of Eichholtz. In 1962 they "attributed" it to C. B. King (1785 - 1862). I do not know who attributed it to Eichholtz, probably at the time of the Lancaster Exposition, 1912. Rebecca J. Beal." Note dated February 26, 1969.
Photographed by Ira W. Martin for the Frick Art Reference Library, New York. Image likely obtained by the donor, Fawn M. Brodie, for her book, "Thaddeus Stevens: Scourge of the South".
