"Died at Sea"
Mon Apr 23 20:46:05 2001
You've been reading my mind Hayes.
My first (and still most pressing) thought is that L.P. Holley DID die along with those poor men on their way to Ship Island. I've never made it the Island myself, but recently checked the website for a list of those buried there.
Alas.... Lawrence Holley is not listed.
Which brings me to another question for you. Any idea if everyone who died on that 'cruise' received a proper burial? By that time, this bloodbath was far from being the -Gentleman's War- it once was.
Thanks Hayes-
