Dale: Great to hear from you. Dan Weiman spoke very highly of you and your knowledge of the conflict in the Panhandle.

Yes, I'd already run across your article on the net and I am convinced. The one thing I might quibble with, is I might suggest that the "typo" was actually an effort at self-preservation. They took the arsenal before secession which is Treason (with a capitol T) in anybody's book. There is a really nice account of Col. Theodore Moreno's attempt to block the Apalachicola River at the Rome/Floyd County Library. If you don't have it - and would like it - let me know.

Thanks for your response. Zack
