Extra Credit Questions

Yes, Steve. Well done. I was about to say that this person was with a President who recited the 1st two lines of a patriotic US poem ... the person then recited the rest of the poem.

"“‘Shoot if you must this old grey head / But spare your country’s flag,’ she said.” In Frederick, Maryland, as President Roosevelt recited the two most famous lines in Whittier’s “Barbara Freitchie,” the voice of his companion rumbled: “Up from the meadows rich with corn / Clear on the cool September morn….” It was Churchill, reciting the poem from end to end."

BTW
Churchill’s maternal grandfather, Leonard Jerome, as part owner of The New York Times, had “staunchly supported Abraham Lincoln in a city where anti-war feelings were vehement.”

Again, well done Steve.
