Cal,
My 4th cousin John Dotson Kotila just alerted me to "The trial of Dr. Aaron James". I then saw where you will be giving a presentation in Dickson 30 April 2011. Wish I could make it, but we will have out of town guest and my wife has made other plans. Going to try and convince her to go to Dickson instead, but don't think I will have much luck. I see where your book is coming out June of this year, ist there away to order a copy?

You mentioned to John that Lt. J.M. Dotson testified at the trial. James M. Dotson is my 2nd. Great Granduncle, he died while in the POW camp on Johnson's Island, Marblehead, Ottawa County, Ohio and his buried there. Could you direct me on how I could find a copy of his testimony, so I might include it in my database?

Would it be possible to get a copy of your presentation that you plan to give April 30, 2011, I would be more than will to cover any expenses. Looking forward to getting your book and hopefully meeting you in person.
