It's an AP story, so I'll paraphrase the first paragraph.
U.S. Grant's great-great-grandson found what appears to be a picture of Lincoln standing in front of the White House in 1865. It could be the last picture of him taken before he was killed.

The story is very interesting. The man who found the photo in an album of U.S. Grant memorablia is the great-grandson of Jesse Grant, the general/president's youngest son.

He played Grant’s album? The one with “ooh baby baby” or one of the Christian albums?

Look closely at the last word: Tome, not Tomb.
