RE: Civil War Veterans
Never met a CW vet, but we had a family friend, she was named Carrie. She lived from 1880-1975. Once when I was around 12-13, she saw me reading a CW book. Carrie commented to me that she remembered when her father went to NYC to march in General Grant's funeral! Of course I hadn't developed my sense of history yet, and I let what she said just go by me. Drat! If only I had the sense to ask her questions, I probably would have heard some interesting tales!
BTW, Carrie had a very comfortable life. It seems her dad was an original investor in that invention that Alexander Graham Bell came up with..... |
