WHAT IS BEING SAID THIS WEEK?LOOSE TALK

“They couldnʼt hit an elephant at this distance”

Spoken moments

moments before being shot by a

confederate sniper.

General John Sedgwick

“I see the President almost every day. I

see very plainly Abraham Lincoln's

dark brown face with its deep-cut lines, the

eyes always to me with a deep latent

sadness in the expression. None of the artists or pictures has caught the deep,

though subtle and indirect expression of

this man's face. There is something

else there. One of the great portrait painters

of two or three centuries ago is

needed.”On Abraham

Lincoln.Walt Whitman

“Positively voted the Republican ticket –

straight...”The party she had voted for illegally.

Susuan B Anthony

“Photographs, armbrotypes and daguerreotypes”

On creating the first modern

advertisement offered in the New York

Herald.Mathew Brady

“I would like to speak in terms of praise due

to the many brave officers and soldiers

who have fought in the cause of war.”

Thoughts on the Civil War and the soldiers.

Abraham Lincoln

“Find out where your enemy is. Get at him as soon as

you can, and strike him as hard as you

can. And keep moving on!”

On his philosophy of war.

Ulysses S. Grant

“Success and glory are in the advance, disaster, and shame

lurk in the rear.”On his troops shortly before calling defeat

at the Battle of Second Manassas.

General John Pope

A Confederate Spy!Rose O’Neal Greenhow

Hosting lavish parties with some of the most powerful men in Washington and sending the information to the Confederacy–Rose Greenhow isn’t your ordinary widow.

On August 23, 1861, Allan Pinkerton was seen spying in Greenhowʼs permanent residency in Washington D.C. Rose OʼNeal Greenhow was born in 1817 at Port Tobacco, Maryland. After her fatherʼs tragic death, she was sent to Washington D.C to live with her aunt who ran a stylish boarding house at the Old Cal building. In D.C she was introduced to important

politicians. As a young woman, she was beautiful, educated, loyal, and compassionate. After her husbandʼs tragic death in San Francisco she came back to Washington D.C and resided at their previous residence. Greenhowʼs home later became the Confederacyʼs spy headquarters in Washington. With Roseʼs charm, strong political views, and knack for conversation, she brought in many movers and shakers of the Union to her home for parties. Soon after returning, she received love letters from Senator Henry Wilson of Massachusetts who was the chairman of Military Affairs for the Union. By using his affection to her advantage, she was able to get information for the Southern war effort. This gave Lieutenant Colonel Thomas Jordan of Virginia great interest in her. Jordan was able to develop an elaborate spy network in Washington all for the Confederacy and created a 26 symbol code as a way to send messages. With her connection with Wilson, Greenhow could greatly change the effect of the war in hopes that the South would win. Greenhowʼs information about attacking days, battle strategies, etc helped the Confederacy triumph at the first Battle at Bull Run. Greenhow was later caught by Allan Pinkerton, a spy for the Union. He loved the North as she did the South. She was placed under house arrest and later transfered to the Old Capitol Prison with her daughter, “Little Rose.” She now resides there until further notice.
