General Sherman welcomed to Columbia

The television news reader was describing the Civil War re-enactment that took place this weekend in Columbia, South Carolina.

The event was to "honor" Sherman, she said.

Ha!

She's not from around here, I'd bet.

Perhaps a statue of Sherman opposite the one of Gen. Wade Hampton will be next.
