Words from Dr. Richard Mudd

[Wild Bill]

I thought pretty the much the same as Roger Norton about the trunk of supplies delivered to "Mudd" from Booth.

I also have a great deal of trouble with Dr Richard Mudd's American political science. I always thought the three branches were the Executive, Legislative, and Judicial. I do not recall that the military was a separate branch of government, but rather part of the executive branch (under the Secretary of War at that time, Secretary of Defense, Department of the Army now). What we have here is vague family reminiscences when exactitude and precision is called for. Once again I refer everyone to Ed Steers, His Name is Still Mudd. There is our precision.
