Put on the mantle piece so i was glad to get it. I thanked him for it and i was going to waco to do some research at baylor, wrapped it up in old dirty tshirts and put it carefully in my suitcase and went down to waco in the rental car the next day, spoke well and came back and went to the airport at dfw, checked the bag to go to washington because i was going up there to a smithsonian program. I spent a few days at my brothers doing research in the archives. Did that, the jar still wrapped up in its tshirt. Went back after i finished to the airport, checked the bag to go back to my home in americas where i was living then and changed planes in atlanta and they changed the bag to the little world war i plane that they used between atlanta and albany, georgia.

If you look back at the Lincoln Movie, youll realize the purpose of the scene in the kitchen is to give lincoln credit fo
Theyve left a large train of munitions in the Eastern Central portion of atlanta that obviously cant get out. And so they set it on fire. This is 18 boxcars full of explosives. And you can imagine the sound that was heard 15, 20 miles away. This is the scene incidentally thats depicted in gone with the wind when red is in the wagon trying to get scarlet and the baby out, and theres all the sets burning in the background. I told my kids some of those sets were from the wizard of oz, which was true. They dont care anything about gone with the wind, but they were upset that the sets from the wizard of oz burned in this movie. Its worth pointing out here that the destruction of atlanta cannot be attributed solely to uncle billy sherman, that hoods army in fact began the process with the evacuation and the destruction of the firing of this train.
