Fun Fact
The Dahlgren Raid on Richmond in March of 1864 is usually a hot topic in Lincoln assassination studies. I just stumbled upon this fun fact about the granddaughter of Admiral John Dahlgren and niece of Col. Ulric Dahlgren:
"Miss K. Dahlgren held for speeding. Daughter of Mrs. Drexel Dahlgren again Summoned to Court in Lenox". New York Times. July 20, 1915. Lenox, Massachusetts, July 20, 1915. Miss Katherine Dahlgren, third daughter of Mrs. Drexel Dahlgren, and a granddaughter of Rear Admiral John Dahlgren, was arrested this afternoon in Stockbridge on a charge of speeding her automobile ninety miles an hour on the main street and for operating the racer in a reckless manner." Don't know her age, but I wonder if the Speed King, U.S. Grant, taught her how to drive. Remember his speeding ticket? |
