Another fine story from history... Richard Ewell was being briefed by a teenage girl about the Yankee position ahead on the road. He tired of her and tried to scare her away by telling her the enemy would surely be firing on them any moment and that she should run and hide. She ignored his words and kept right on talking. Ewell turned to his aide and said, "Women - I tell you, sir, women would make a grand brigade - if it weren't for snakes and spiders!" |
