In Response To: Re: Henry Morton Stanley ()

Used to be a lot of individuals in this country, something happen to them along about the mid sixties...1960s that is....I had an Uncle who lived in the mountains of North Carolina who liked to make his own whiskey... to make a long story short he got busted when he was 55, almost 56....my age now....the Judge told Uncle Ross he could have 5 years probation, had to go to Church every Sunday, he was able. Or two years in the Big House. Unc told them he went to church every now and then and read the Bible about every day. The thing was he didn't want anybody TELLING him to go to church, so he took the two years in the slammer...smart? nope, but he was his own man.
