Extra Credit Questions

[Joe Di Cola]

Huey Long? Or was he Governor at the time?

He was U.S. Senator from Louisiana at that time.

A little off track, but I just finished a very disturbing book (which I will give you the title to later). My trivia question is: What U.S. Congressman is the only one to be assassinated while still serving in the House of Representatives?

Congressman Ryan was killed while on an invesitigative visit to the infamous Jonestown. Is this the one, Laurie?

Laurie, I am changing my answer since Ryan's death in Jonestown was not technically an assassination. There was a southern congressman that was targeted and assassinated by the KKK a few years after the end of the Civil War. I cannot recall his name.
