Comments
Citation information is different depending upon whether you are citing the McDonald speech or the other materials within the pdf compilation. For example, if you were citing the TimesDaily article you would use different information and format it differently according to an article in Chicago style derived from an archival collection, the same goes for the "5th Annual Trail of Tears Pow Wow" flyer.
