RE: Reevaluation of the St. Albams Raiders
RJ. The papers that came from Richmond showed only that Young was a Lt. in the Confederate Army and maybe something similar on the others. The "Orders" were created in Canada, and they were signed by Clay - only. but I will scratch around some more.

Jerry I was aware of your input, but I felt I was getting "to long", and getting outside my purpose. There is even more than the bit we cover here. Thanks for contributing.

Gene I'll bet we can come up with an interesting blurb on the relationship between Clay and Thompson. They were "equal" Commissioners, but Thompson was the "Senior" of the two so there were times when Thompson overruled Clay. Thompson said "NO" to this raid, but Clay went ahead on his own.
