Perhaps more confusion.

Yellow Fever; People who had had a mild case of Yellow Fever and did not know it were said to be "Acclimated." They did not know or use the word "Immune." There were quite a few (Perhaps many) of them. They were said to be Acclimated because they had lived in the Yellow Fever area and did not catch it. Crazy.

Also, I mentioned Marmaduke Shannon. His son Markaduke Shannon, Jr., turned 16 in 1863. He went to Port Gibson to join the Confederate Army. (Vicksburg was under Yankee control.) He was killed at Mobile, (Fort Blakely) perhaps the last man from Vicksburg to die in the struggle.
