Anyone who needs stamps might want to head out and grab
them before the United States Postal Service’s latest price
hikes go into effect this weekend. (FOX NEWS)

The cost of a "forever" stamp for first-class mail is rising from
63 to 66 cents Sunday as part of increased mailing prices
approved by the Postal Regulatory Commission earlier this
year at the request of the USPS. The USPS said it needed more
money in part due to high inflation.

The "Jell-O" brand is a registered trademark of Kraft
Heinz, and is based in Chicago, Illinois.

In 1897, in LeRoy, New York, carpenter and cough
syrup manufacturer Pearle Bixby Wait trademarked
a gelatin dessert called "Jell-O". Wait and his wife,
May, added strawberry, raspberry, orange, and lemon
flavoring to granulated gelatin and sugar.

Mary Elizabeth Jenkins Surratt
(1820 or May 1823 – July 7, 1865)

Mary Surratt was executed by the U.S. government for her
role as a conspirator in Abraham Lincoln’s assassination.

Surratt, who owned a tavern in Surrattsville (now Clinton),
Maryland, had to convert her row house in Washington, D.C.,
into a boardinghouse as a result of financial difficulties.

Located a few blocks from Ford’s Theatre, where Lincoln
was murdered, this house served as the place where a
group of Confederate supporters, including John Wilkes
Booth, conspired to assassinate the president. It was
Surratt’s association with Booth that ultimately led to her
conviction, though debate continues as to the extent of
her involvement and whether it really warranted so harsh
a sentence.

from how it looked during her occupancy.

is in the Chinatown neighborhood of Washington, D.C.
