Dear list members:

An article in today's Washington Post, with a photo online, reports  
on the opening of a rebuilt slave cabin at Mount Vernon: "its highest- 
profile slavery exhibit in years, a 16-by-14-foot log cabin modeled  
on the field hands' quarters on Washington's vast estate."  I can't  
reproduce the article here for copyright reasons, but you can read it  
at http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2007/09/19/ 
AR2007091902464.html.
