Herold was so well known in that area that he could have dropped those carbines off any place. Southern Marylanders had been receiving and forwarding contraband weapons for four years.

Your turn...

Trying to get ahead of you is like trying to get ahead of a cheetah. I'm going off now to have my daily cocktail. I'll respond to this tomorrow, I hope.
