Paperback edition of Reclaiming Parkland: Expanded and Revised

[Tom Scully]

...........

FYI: Drago has opened a thread about you on Burnham's page. He is saying you complained about your book not being sent on in his nomination of Garrison. No detail from Drago over Joan Mellen's book being the best choice.

What useful purpose do you perform here, or on any other discussion venue in which either Albert or Brian participates? Misery to the reader's eyes is not useful.

Date: Wednesday, October 27, 1965

Paper: Advocate (Baton Rouge, Louisiana)

Page: 16





Why not point out that the elephant in the room is the nagging unresolved contradictions related to the sponsorship of Garrison and of his nondisclosure.

Expanded obit of Burke's best man, Walker Brainerd Spencer, dated 2 Sept., 1954: (Burke is described as a pallbearer)




Is it remarkable that W. Brainerd Spencer attended Hill School with CIA's Phill Strong and was his Princeton roommate for two years
and seven years later was best man in the wedding of future southeast U.S. chief of CIA's DCS, William P. Burke?

Burke's wife was a bridesmaid in the 1917 Napoleonville, LA wedding of her uncle, Willoughby Kittredge. Willoughby married the aunt of Harry Souchon, also a member of that wedding party.
Souchon shows up again in the 1931 wedding party of George W. Dodge, a member of a small group of Princeton performers called Triangle Club. Dodge's best man was John S. Coxe, also
a Triangle performer, along with Herbert Seay. Coxe and Seay were alsoin the Glee Club, along wuth Seay's Princeton roommate, Tilbury O. "Buck" Freemam.






Freeman married for life in 1935. His bride was George Bouhe's sister. According to SSA death record Bouhe died in 1981 in the town the Freemans resided in, Plainfield, NJ.

My grandfather sits on a train, waiting. It is early spring, 1937. His name is Philip Strong and he has boarded here in the Hamburg station, preparing to head to Berlin.

He is 36 years old, a U.S. Marine Reserve Captain. But as a reserve officer, he is not travelling in uniform, instead he's wearing an old tweed jacket. He has a bulky backpack stashed on the overhead rack. In his pocket is tucked his smoking pipe along with a small pouch of his treasured Dunhill tobacco....
