Default Moonlight Graham letters discovered
According to an article in the Baltimore Sun, a dozen letters written and signed by Moonlight Graham have been found at the University of Maryland medical school. An interesting article.

Interesting article. Crazy that the documents were not thrown out, and were just sitting there for so long, basically untouched.

Thought it was interesting that the article says Field of Dreams immortalized the phrase "If you building, he will come." I remembered it as being "If you build, they will come" but the article is right, it is "he" will come. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Ay5GqJwHF8

Nice

Before he passed away I played Pinochle once a week with an old guy that grew up in Chrisholm and Dr Graham was his childhood doctor.

Good morning read. He knew those cabinets held something. Got to trust the gut sometimes.
