Leave a message here if you are for some insane reason interested in booking me for a speaking engagement. You may be nuts, but at least you’re not alone (see above).
Do you do private party speaking engagements - say for a small group of 12?
Will you dress-up as Clara Barton - if I pay you well enough?
Like the site!

Hey Craig!
Sure, Bar Mitvahs, bachelorette parties, whatever. Every man has his price. Clara Barton? No problemo!

Are you REALLY going to be at Teej’s RT in Pinehurst? Maybe I can arrange to visit my son in Raleigh about that time.
Terry,
Yes, I am REALLY going to be in Pinehurst.

Thx

Off topic
I just finished Brent Nosworthy’s chapter in Roll Call to Destiny, on Burnside at First Manassas, and in it he keeps refereing to artillery posted by the Lewis house firing on Burnside’s troops. Isn’t it the Henry house that he means? The only Lewis house I am aware of is Portici, and that is certainly out of 6 pdr range.
Steve,
I’ll look into this a little more (I only reviewed the book in brief, so I did not read it all), but there was a Maggie Lewis house just north of the northernmost bend of Young’s Branch, and south of Pittsylvania (the Carter house). Davidson’s guns were north of the pike and south of this house, and did fire on Burnside IIRC. You can see the house on Hennessy’s maps, the Collier overlay maps, and the Bearss maps.
Harry
Yeah, I dug out my Hennessy and found the Lewis place. It’s till alittle low topograpically, and I’ll check it out next time I’m there. With the tree removal going on, it may clear up the picture. Thanks for the info.
Steve:
