This is the image as posted on the CNN website on 15 Feburary in an article on President Abraham Lincoln. I had difficulty reading the handwriting at the top and originally thought that I was losing my ability to read.
That's not the case as apparently the photograph has been flipped horizontally.

Because when I flipped the image horizontally, the handwriting was clearly "Lincoln's funeral."

Ever wonder if that picture of an ancestor you found on someone's website, blog, etc. has been flipped?
Maybe, maybe not, but I'll be paying closer attention in the future.
