- The closest I have heard was that Jefferson Davis said he didn't want to be considered a citizen of the US. I know that he had his citizenship formally revoked, tho' no one bothered to ever throw him out of the country. Carter formally gave it back to him.FlaviaR 16:54, 12 October 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Help, please!
Not only did I stupidly forget to sign the edit I made when I added the mention of how many & which movies have been made of this story, I have no idea how to create a link to Internet Movie Database. :-}FlaviaR 16:50, 12 October 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Young or old
From the HTML version at Project Gutenberg, on page 11: "Philip Nolan was as fine a young officer as there was in the "Legion of the West," as the Western division of our army was then called. When Aaron Burr made his first dashing expedition down to New Orleans in 1805, at Fort Massac, or somewhere above on the river, he met, as the Devil would have it, this gay, dashing, bright young fellow, at some dinner-party, I think. Burr marked him, talked to him, walked with him, took him a day or two's voyage in his flat-boat, and, in short, fascinated him. " (emphasis mine) Perhaps it would be better to adjust the article to outright state that he ages through the text? ---- Hebisddave (talk) 17:52, 16 November 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Nolan, No Land
"Nolan" and "no land" sound the same in some American dialects. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.68.84.152 (talk) 22:12, 4 February 2008 (UTC)
