Archives.
Hello, Dale.........
I am aware that Colonel John Singleton Mosby was outraged when a student
from the University of Virginia football team died from an injury
received during a football game and said so in a scathing op-ed. I'm
guessing that it was early in the 20th Century, as Mosby had worked for
the Southern Pacific RR until 1901. I do not know exactly when or the
newspaper, but would guess it was the Charlottesville paper. Do you
have any suggestions as to where I may look?
I look for your early reply......
