PeaRidge: "Have you realized yet that the "Harriet Lane" was not in Florida when you said she was?"

So, you went to all the trouble to save, recover and post a seven year old quote, without bothering to note the back & forth which followed?
And you think that's a sign of something other than a feeble mind?

In that back & forth, rustbucket pointed out sources which said Harriot Lane was elsewhere at the time.
So I reasonably concluded that my source, a Civil War Timeline book, was likely mistaken.
But there were several Union ships involved, and I did not then take the time to chart out exactly where each ship was, and when, so as to discover exactly where the error occurred.

So once again, it's you who've posted falsehoods.
