The race to Appomattox has begun. “Nine April Days” is a good read on this subject.

On a side note the 19th marks the anniversary of when “Gun Control” ignited The Revolution that is still under way.

I find reading these fascinating. This piece in the articles above grabbed my attention: A Freedman’s National Bank

Also, I recall reading a snip about discussions of the North and South combining forces to fight a war regarding some form of reconciliation - against whom? I may have misunderstood what I was reading and it was from last week. I tried to find it again without success.

I also use the manner of writing (reminds me of letters my grandfather sent to me while at univeristy) and frequent reference to faith or Scripture to friends demonstrating the degradation and deterioration of present day reporting as a whole.

Thank you!
