Mudd Info Needed
This post is specifically for Bob Summers, but I am placing it here rather than in a personal e-mail to him so that we can all be edumacated with his response:
Someone on the Surratt Booth Tour this past Saturday noticed that a tent and American flag have been placed near the far wood line behind the Mudd House. When queried, the guide indicated that it was where they think the "occupying troops" were camped during the time that Mrs. Mudd was under house arrest. One of my staff members on the tour asked me today about those troops, and I admitted that I knew very little about unit(s), numbers, length of time they were there, etc. All I know is that they did damage around the farm. I spent time this afternoon at work (don't tell my bosses) searching your wonderful website, but didn't find that info. Can you fill us in on the points mentioned above? BTW to all readers: I do know how to spell "educated!" However, one of my mentors in my journey through Lincoln assassination history was John C. Brennan. He was a wonderful wordsmith, kept an open dictionary on a library stand in his living room, and delighted in proofreading people's work. However, he also liked to throw in colloquialisms every now and then to amuse his audience. "Edumacation" was one of his favorite terms. I have retained its usage in memory of John John. |
