When McClellan came in, he was one of those big dogs, like Robin Gibbs, who=
"has the confidence of the Board." We shall see what happenend to him. I= t is a great story about chemistry and leadership. =20 -----Original Message----- From: =09Hall, Steve C.

I will try to get current next weekend. Now that Lincoln has fired Gen.

Let's dust off the big tome and read forward, month by mo= nth together. Elizabeth, try not to read too much at a time, just find w= here he is in October of 1861 and read slowly. This is a slow, savoring th= ing, not a rapid read for escape and entertainment. With this big terroris= t mess going on and eveything, the lessons for both business and life are g= oing to be termendous. And, one final admonition, Elizabeth, when you get i= nto his lengthy descriptions of troop maneuverings, try not to be bored, = just take a pencil and paper and kind of sketch out what you think he is sa= ying, the basic directions and movements...use your skills for calculating= early termination payments and set offs. All of these battles are big net= ting and set off messes. You are better qualified than you think to get in= to this stuff. War is just a big messy chess game termination and set off= . Try to get your imagination into it this way. ----cgy -----Original Message----- From: =09Hall, Steve C.

(Legal); Sager, Elizabeth Subject:=09RE: Gossip There were those times, during the War, when fighters on one side of the li= ne would gain personal knowledge of the presence of old friends, even relat= ives, being directly across the lines, back there in the mass of enemey tro= ops. The Union General Hancock had been a very close friend of the Confede= rate General Armsted and on the eve of the final day at Gettysburg, had a = moment or two remembering their good old days together in California. Wolf= e and Krebs are out there somewhere "on the other side." Although I must c= andidly confess that officer Krebs does not rank high in my humble judgemen= t and is not among the significant players in the combat, Wolfe does. Wol= fe was a player.
