Custer Continued From Page 5
men have an opportunity
to make coffee before tthey
were required to go farther.
Custer was a fighting man,
through and through, but
wary and wily as brave. There
was in him an indescribable
something - call it caution,
call it sagacity, call it the real
military instinct - it may have
been genius - but whatever
name entitled, it nearly
always impelled him to do
intuitively, the right thing.
In this case it
seemed obstinacy if not
insubordination. It was
characteristic of him to care
studiously for the comfort
of his men. And he did not
believe in wasting their lives.
It is more than probably it
was in his mind a suspicion
of the true state of things. If
so, he did not say so, even to
the general commanding the
division.
A very long and interesting
story short, Custer moved
after a fairly long delay,
just in time to intercept the
Confederate group under
General Fritz Lee, before they
had a chance to attack the
other columns from the rear.
Greatly outnumbered,
Custer was eventually forced
to retreat, with Lee in pursuit,
thus saving the rear ends
of the columns that went
forward and keeping the
bridge open. Stuart's plan fell
apart.
Lee later noted that,
"Custer fought ferociously
even in retreat."
Dumb luck or instinct?
Crazy, reckless?

artists who showed some of
their work. Members of the
Brush Bunch who displayed
and enjoyed meeting fellow

for several years. I want to
thank Laurel Brusseau for
sharing with me for this
article, she is shown doing
some serious visiting on
the sideline. Our one liner;

rules do not make works of
art." By Claude Debussy

North Dakota is the highest
state in the Nation with 20-
24 year olds (tech-oriented
youth), the fastest growing
state in population, the
second wealthiest state, the
most banks per capita and
the only State-owned bank,
ranked the friendliest, and
the highest concentration
of citizens over 80 years-
of-age per capita in the
country. Youth that left the
state ten years ago for lack
of opportunities are flooding
back, drawn by new jobs and
the rural values.
In Drayton, a talented
group of students have
met twice with the goal of
preservingthe stories of WWII
veterans but funding and
broader support are needed
to grow resources. Drayton
for years has advanced its
reach into the digital world
by Web streaming "Old
Fashioned Christmas" to
four continents.
Maybe this year, the stories
of giving thanks to "Heritage
Heroes" canbegintopreserve
the spirit of "Old Fashioned
Christmas" that sustains the
community culture into the
new generation, with youth
at the vanguard of the parade
and the whole community
joining in to either march or
watch the festivities.
