I may have lost track . . . weren’t we talking about General Forrest and his speech to a black audience before we addressed Julia Grant.

We were, but you're all over the place with your claims. Just trying to keep up.

Does going ahead with Ms. Grant mean we are done with the General Forrest discussion.

I can multi-task. Can't you?

And if that is the case, how did you come out searching for the vindication of your previous assertion “there’s a considerable amount of evidence that the Forrest quote...”

Very well. How did you do on finding biographers who included it in their works?

“How did you do on finding biographers who included it in their works?”

Was I suppose to look for some? I must have missed the revelation of duty.

If I could find several biographers that have used the original source, would that strengthen the original source?

And if it is determined that many biographers are ignorant of Forrest’s speech - then what?

Where are you going with this?
