Hi Russ, Please please always include a subject line in your emails because with some very dangerous viruses out there, it is not wise for us on the Riddle List to open an email which has no address and no subject line. In the future we all really should just delete such messages. That would be sad, since this is good information. The book you quote from I have seen at the FHL in SLC. It has some inaccuracies about Thomas Riddle, who we now know was William (tory) Riddle, but the raft down the Cumberland River etc. is really facinating!
