<< The statement about "white gloves" is hard to verify. One's skin without
gloves would also appear light in an image. I would also think that it
would be common for a civilian horseman to be wearing some sort of gloves
(even buff colored, but more likely black).  >>

Not white gloves.  White sashes.  They show up quite clearly on the mounted 
marshalls in the photos.  The angle and clarity of the man in the 
enlargement thought to be Lincoln makes it difficult to tell if he is 
wearing a sash or not.
