He was. It’s a crying shame that he took a blow to the head, and pretty much lost it mentally before things really bore fruit.

A truly great man.

And possibly divinely inspired. He said he wanted God to call him up in a flash of light, and lo and behold he dies by getting hit by lightning.

There were a lot of incredible things that happened in the Revolutionary era.

Divinely inspired? Or tempted the Almighty once too often?
