ALBANY, N.Y. (AP) — The New York State Museum has added two artifacts to its exhibition marking the 150th anniversary of the Civil War.

Now in the exhibit, entitled “An Irrepressible Conflict: The Empire State in the Civil War,” are the notes taken by two physicians who attended President Abraham Lincoln on his death bed. Also added to the collection is the only existing oil painting of Dred Scott, the slave who unsuccessfully sued for his freedom in a landmark 1858 Supreme Court case.
