New Salem: A History of Lincoln's Alma Mater - Joe Di Cola - 05-29-2017 10:03 AM
Mi spiace!
Lo siento!
Je suis desole!
I'm sorry, soooo sorry, Brenda Lee, 1960.
On page 61 of New Salem: A History of Lincoln's Alma Mater, I "over-researched" the meaning of the word "do" and, while my research led me to one possible meaning it was not the correct one. The word "do" simply stands for "ditto" in reference to the grocery stock item listed before. Since I am not sure this erratum can be corrected in future printings I am correcting it here. Now, perhaps, I can stop obsessing over this!

Please relax, Joe - you are forgiven. It's a wonderful book!

Now that I have reread that section, that makes sense.
