Comments on: The Man, The Myth, The Legend http://bullrunnings.wordpress.com/2009/02/09/the-man-the-myth-the-legend/ A Journal of the Digitization of a Civil War Battle Tue, 14 May 2013 19:21:19 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.com/ By: Teej Smith http://bullrunnings.wordpress.com/2009/02/09/the-man-the-myth-the-legend/#comment-4246 Thu, 12 Feb 2009 05:01:32 +0000 http://bullrunnings.wordpress.com/?p=3199#comment-4246 Thanks for giving Ed my regards, Harry. He was in Pinehurst on January 8, his first stop on a four RT tour in three days. His topic for the Rufus Barringer CWRT was the Gettysburg personality everyone loves to hate, Dan Sickles. As always I learned a few things I didn’t know. In this case it was that Sickles arranged to have the fence that once enclosed Lafayette Square where he shot and killed Barton Key, moved to Gettysburg as a permanent reminder that he (Sickles) got away with murder. Ed Bearss is indeed a “national treasure.”

Regards,
Teej

Sorry I wasn’t able to approve your comment and respond earlier. If Mr. Bearss is still with you, please tell him how much my son and I enjoyed his presentation.
