Liberty to Cole, continued.
  What I needed was a good place to eat. Cemeteries are great eateries. They are usually shaded in places and the company is good, always well mannered and quiet, mostly. I have heard some howling. I write this off as husbands and wives being buried to close to one another. There have been some hot breezes that could have only come from that arrangement.
  The fella below was born in 1786. I cleaned the red ant bed off his stone. That's all it takes, an ant bed, to disappear. Put your stone high.  Just a thought. I wonder if he met Jean LaFitte and Andrew Jackson?  I'll bet he did.
Some just knock you down.

The importance of service to the country is seen from graveyard to graveyard. Not so much now. What happened to us?
     Never doubt The War's present importance. The 7th's history is covered on this site. These new stones are seen everywhere. So are the varaious Confederate Flags. I think they may be more prevalent. I can only imagine why.
     Lunch with the Hoff-Roberts over, I rode toward Cole, resting near the crest of the Homochitto upland.
"Near" is a subjective adjective which is used to fend of Mz Panhead. Ooops, I lapsed. Sorry.
