Someone drop you on your head?
Yes, but that is irrelevant, as i am just posting a scholarly essay written by someone else.
Well, yes - someone DID drop soakncider on his head.
Fortunately, YOUR head cushioned the blow...
No. No one dropped me on my head either. - My great-great
grandfather was a Southern dirt farmer, NO SLAVES. As was
the case with the majority of Southerners! - He fought at
Shiloh & told my grandmother when she asked as a small girl
that Shiloh was a horrible, horrible mess of dead & dying
men crawling to the Bloody Pond to wash off their wounds.
She asked him if he killed anybody at Shiloh. He answered,
“Lord, Izora, I don’t see how I could have kept from it -
it was such a MESS.”
We lived close to Shiloh. My parents took me to Shiloh even
when I was little. - I’m 69 yrs. old & the Bloody Pond was
a deeper, darker blood color back then from where the rocks
in the pond were bloodstained. - It has faded over the
years; but that’s the way of war - memory fades, scars fade,
soldiers die from wounds or old age - history is rewritten
by the victors, “someone” buries the dead - and then it
happens again fueled by people eager for war - they THINK!
