    Thank you @StuffWriter! Where would we be without you? 😊 I am a proud Pennsylvania Native, living in Colorado, so I can't get back to Gettysburg much. I have to say, next time I go, it will be during the Winter Lectures. The motorcycles would absolutely ruin my mood during a spring or summer battlefield walk. Thank you again!

    My GGF, Michael Carroll Hennessey rode with Morgan on his Ky raids and the Ohio raid . He was in Chenault's11th; captured during Ohio raid; imprisoned Camp Douglas , remainder of war..Hennessey was born in Ireland and penned a song about Morgan's Christmas raid.I have the song's lyrics if you are interested (free). GGF rode a Denmark Saddlebred which did not become jaded for a long while..

    According to Google Translate, the French in the letter at 1:01:56 reads "Patience is bitter, but its fruit is sweet".

    I live 30 mins north of Cincy and have driven the John Hunt Morgan route from Indiana out to Buffington Island read a couple books yada yada...it's very interesting stuff.
    I really enjoy Matt's presentations on the civil war. While he did a great job landing on his feet with missing two pages of material, I just wonder what all we missed out lol.
    Good stuff.

    The John Wayne question was a trick question - he never played a Confederate soldier. In Rio Lobo he was a Union Soldier (prisoner) who was forced to wear a Confederate Uniform

      @@skyjac92 I think you are right - I was thinking of rio lobo where he wore one but wasn’t a confederate

      @cjp8u2 Рік тому +1

      I think the implication is that he was also one in True Grit. He named his cat Sterling Price. Could have missed a line somewhere though.
      He is a confederate veteran in the searchers.

    The numbers don't match up on the troops after Nelsonville???
    Where did they all go ?
    They split south of Nelsonville and rode into the West ...
    There was a heated battle just west of old poston station . Cannon against Cannon their faster stolen breech loaders quickly won !!!
