:cry: can't believe it, the one and only Q I had the slightest awareness of and I've forgotten, I remeber something about it, there were to mills that merged and formed the largest foundry and I remember it was something like Trecher or Tredger or trender or something like that...now you wait and see, the answer will sound nothing like that.

What infamous Union General can be attributed to this quote:
"that hereafter when any female shall by word, gesture or movement, insult or show contempt for any officer or soldier of the United States, she shall be regarded and held liable to be treated as a woman of the town plying her avocation."
hint: his nickname was "Beast"

No problem there, I've got a whole treasure trove of them.
After the Battle of Chattanooga ended with a stunning Union victory, the second national cemetary was designated (the first was at Murfreesboro, Tenn.). Upon being asked to decide whether to arrange the burial plots by the states of the units' deceased, which Union officer answered, "No, mix 'em up. I've had enough of state's rights?"
