RE: Time for a memorial honoring Boston Corbett?
I, FOR ONE, CANNOT SUPPORT A MEMORIAL FOR BOSTON CORBETT. I DO NOT CONDEM THE MAN AND ADVOCATE PUNISHMENT, BUT AN HONORING FOR A MENTALLY DEFICIENT MAN, WHO DISOBEYED ORDERS, WHO SHOT A MAN FROM AMBUSH, WHO I BELIEVE WAS SEEKING REWARD MONEY, THAT HE WOULD NOT NEED TO SHARE WITH THE OTHERS, DOES NOT MERRIT ADULATION.

THE WHOLE INTENT, DURING THE CHASE, WAS TO "GIVE BOOTH A TASTE OF HIS OWN MEDICINE" - SHOOT THE GUY.

I COULD GO ON, BUT THAT IN TURN - IS A MEMORIAL I SAY BACK-OFF AND LET IT GO WITH "THE MAN WHO SHOT BOOTH, AND SHARED THE REWARD." NO MORE, NO LESS.
