Test. Test test. Test test test. Test test test test. Test test test test test. So here is another good example. And again what do you see . We see the prim, right . The morning paper. We see executive mansion in black. It says my dear sir, i was directed by the president for your desire to change headlines and papers for all of the papers requiring his decision. Preparing nominations for senate or the houses of congress to aview the change. Sincerely yours, and it is dated october 17th, 1901. So the president s secretary saying for future reference any documents you send to the president for him to sign, the heading should be white house. So october 17th, 1901 thats when that directive is sent. But there is no real executive order, there is no law, so when they say that roosevelt officially changed the name from executive mansion to white house, it is true, but it is kind of hard to pin down exactly when it happened.

So this is actually the first known exterior photograph of the white house. It was taken by a welshborn photographer named john plume jr. And about january, 1846. So, if youre looking at the white house, this
Times, whether you were researching them on the internet or doing research for your papers in this class but there are a number of stories that continue to be circulated and perpetuated. What i like about this is you get to not only debunk these things but try to figure out where they started and why people grew so attached to them ecause that also tells you a little bit more about how people understand the past and how they use it or misuse it. So, remember earlier in the semester we talked about the Jackson Magnolia. I think a number of you went into detail about the Jackson Magnolia. Alex, was it you who wrote about the Jackson Magnolia . You already know this. But think about to when johnson pivska visited the class and we talked about the Jackson Magnolia. Who remembers the story . Andrew jacksons wife died right before he went to office so he planted this tree because it was her favorite tree.
