Thanks for the ping, Stainless. Happy Birthday General Lee!
"As he stood there, the embodiment of a line of heroic and patriotic fathers and worthy mothers, it was thus I first saw Robert E. Lee...he used no stimulants, was free from even the use of tobacco, and...he was absolutely stainless in his private life...he had been a model youth and young man...I had before me the most manly and entire gentleman I ever saw."
