Townsend Article about Dr. Mudd

[JMadonna]

Wow! A facinating account - and quite different from the usual viewpoint held by the Mudd family -- quite refreshing, actually.

I was just a little [/i]surprised by the statement that Herold was somewhat of a "dandy" - I've seen this stated of Herold before. It's hard to surmise that he was dandyish inasmuch as his photos make him look so dirty - as he was after living for two weeks on the lam! Not much of the dandy there at all....

Maybe he was his mother's 'Dandy'? I always thought of him as a mamma's boy.
