<DIV>Alas, Mr. Price is correct about something. Idaho was not a part of the Union until 1890.</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>However, I believe that the 1863 36-star US flag would be more appropriate than any regimental flag. Ms. Patterson (or was it "Peterson") has informed Rose Huskey, who passed it on to the Viz, that ALL decisions concerning this display were made by her (Ms. Patterson/Peterson), as it should be.</DIV>

<DIV>I would have thought that the inclusion of the US Regimental Flag that is currently part of the courthouse display would have been enough, as the display was put together</DIV>
<DIV>by the veterans actual relative, but I am sure that the Latah County Historical Society will appreciate your donation, even though Idaho wasn't even thought of at the time of the Civil War, </DIV>
<DIV>it was part of what was then known as the Washington Territory.</DIV>

<DIV>For the purpose of historical accuracy and to demonstrate that the lack of the presence of a Civil War US flag in the Latah County Courthouse is offensive, not only to the Union veteran who was incarcerated at Andersonville but all who served in the US armed forces, "Moscow Cares" has placed an order for a 36-star "Gettysburg" US flag at:</DIV>
