I remember going to a wax museum somewhere, and his famous act was displayed. This was in the 1970s.

Charles Sumner was well known to be a complete and utter Richard head. It was Sumner’s mocking of Brooks’ family member for his disability due to his health problems that caused Brooks to cane him.
