Ish,
Good for him!! I didn't know that the Mexican War required dedicated citizens to put up money for army units though. Since it was supposed to be a US government war effort, I thought that the treasury footed the whole bill. I'm glad to know that tidbit of history.

It is truly a shame that such a decent person, as Edwarda was, has been taken from us, but perhaps the Lord needed her talents.
