First off, there is a partial retraction (or at least a semi-correction) of last week's story of the origin of Taps... that didn't take long! Then, after years of unsuccessful attempts to recover the property and buildings of the former Arlington plantation, the Supreme Court rules in favor of the Lee family. So, what is the US Government going to do with the 20,000 military members interred there?!
This week's ghosts are some of the former slaves who became known collectively as Freedmen and came to live on the former-Arlington Plantation:
- Danella Warris
- Betsy Hunter
- Juley Fitzure
- Stephen Young
- Frank Docket
- Ben Johnson
