This is not even my hair and i would still cut you. It is, once again, time to delve into the world of crime here at right this minute. We are going to start with one of the most despicable. Even a hidden camera looks like it is mounted on the ceiling. This woman comes in. As she releases a secret drawer and you see just goes rifling through this wallet and ends up taking 40 quid, just under 60 u. S. Dollars. Closes that secret drawer and is off. Does anybody want to guess who this person is and what she does . The caretaker. The caretaker of an 89yearold who suffers from severe dementia. The son got suspicious, installed this camera and was able to capture this moment. The scary part is if they are willing to do that, what else are they up to . The criminal irony is that the womans deceased husband actually built that secret thing to keep her valuables safe. She ended up being finested under 150 u. S. Dollars and got 12 months Community Service and was forced to repay the money. She i
For a transformed nation. The significance of what took place in mr. Mcleans parlor settled the issue of who would be the victors of the american civil war. But many questions remained unanswered. Soldiers echoed their thoughts in letters and diary entries. While letters of Union Soldiers reflected jubilation, their words also reflected concerns. Turn it down now. In the the front lines of appomattox chapel, j. L. Mulligan of the 140th pennsylvania wrote a few days later, though the army of Northern Virginia is ours, still grave questions remain to be settled for which god alone can give the true wisdom and guidance. A confederate artillerist private berkeley recorded a diary entry on april 11th after confirming in his previous days entry that lee had surrendered his whole army. Surely the last 24 hours has been a day of the most intense mental anxiety i have ever experienced. Thousands of thoughts have passed through my mind as to what fate awaits my country, my family, my neighbors,

Ago ago. Just outstanding events in richmond, last weekend commemorating the fall of richmond. Dr. Ed aires is one of americas preeminent civil war historians and i dont say that lightly. Hes one committed not just to impeccable scholarship, but to reaching people beyond academia. He roots out stories, untold stories, he amplifies voices unheard. And he constantly challenges us to see events in new ways. Always with a sense of historical justice for those who are there. Perhaps more than any historian working in the field he helps us accord meaning to events that were almost always far more complex and far reaching than we imagined them to be. Hes retiring from his position at the university of richmond this summer. While its a great loss for the university to be sure a prospect of dr. Aires devoting his immense energies once again, to history is good news for the rest of us. Its my pleasure to introduce to you dr. Ed aires. Thank you. There are, indeed, very many of you. And its conve
