the secretary of war for ulysses s. grant, and his wife had a taste for the finer things in life and demanded a lavish lifestyle. often times back in the day, cabinet secretaries were expected to entertain and host parties in washington, d.c. they took over a large house that was previously owned by the secretary of state and just through bangers. night after night after night, and so overextended their invitations that at one point, 1200 guests arrived at the party, and they trashed the place and caused so much damage, they could not afford to pay any of the contractors to clean it up, so what did they do? the wife engineered a kickback scheme. all of the western military posts out in indian territory would then get a cut and send it back to he and his wife in order to make up for the lost income. now this went on for many, many years until i was finally discovered, and when it was discovered, he ran into ulysses s. grant's office and said i'm sorry, here's my recogresignation and burst into tears. what did they do wit

well, appleton remains in exile until 1872, when ulysses grant becomes convinced that he's innocent and grant grants the pardon and leaves england with his family and comes back to the united states, he lands the coast of north carolina and. he's walking through the streets of either beaufort or morehead city, one day, and he sees a land auction going and he decides, i'm going to help the auctioneer out. and so he puts in a very low bid on some land. and the next day he's walking the streets and someone comes up to him and says, you know, you got to pay for that land. you bought it. and he what are you talking about? and they say no one else bid. and so bought land in north carolina and that is where he would spend rest of his days and this is so i've done number of interviews i've done civil war talk with jerry parker povich and i've aaron master program with the four score series. and both jerry and aaron have said me appleton is like the forrest gump of the 19th century. he shows in every moment and even in north carolina, he shows up in reconstruction, politics a really amazing way.

s grant, among others. perhaps most important of all, at least to amy, the enterprise raised an initial debt of $550 and netted a profit 2155. that's. almost $40,500 today. even the press and the materials were sold off. so after the war, amy went on to become a beloved educator in wilmington, north carolina, establishing normal school for the community there before passing away at the age of 80 on january 15th, 1904. the historical record of the union's overburdened department notwithstanding, the eight page hospital weekly serves an even more significant purpose for contemporary journalism historians seeking greater clarity and context and understanding the origins of the patriotic press. rediscovering the soldier's journal as a pioneering publication circulating in advance of better known specialty that contributed to the explosion of popular media that helped propel gilded age consumerism. well, it rewrites what is known of how and when customized copy came to hand for those seeking to reenter lives lef
