I agree. Based on my work with students over the past 20 years this is a very common extra credit question given by teachers: to find the name of Lincoln's representative recruit.>

Really. And this was easily done by students, before the net? Before I made my initial post on Summerfield, I 'searched' this forum for any prior mention of him. In the many thousands of postings, not one mention found for Summerfield that I could find at all.

Maybe because you kept searching under "Summerfield??" Sarcasm aside, just because you found no one on this forum mentioning Staples, doesn't mean that none of us knew about him. Are you now judging us on how much we know and don't know? True education is always ongoing.
