Help with identifying a gun I just got.

[Harry Collins]

William,

I have a 12 and 20 Trojan that I shoot as well as any gun I have ever handled. That includes some very fine English guns. Not as svelte as the higher grade Parkers, but as a shooter they are perfect. You may find yourself lured into adding to your collection. I could live the rest of my life happy with just the two Trojans. I enjoyed learning of your peerage. My great great grandfather and his oldest son enlisted in the Fifth Kentucky Infantry CSA in June of 61. Both officers, but sadly the son was killed May 14, 1864. The Lost Brigade became mounted about that time and dogged Sherman to the coast and the wars end.

Incidentally, Pres. William Henry Harrison shot a Parker.

Try again Dean!! William Henry Harrison died a good quarter century before the first Parker Bros. gun.
