After the recent Baltimore National I visited Gettysburg and was treated to a terrific battlefield tour by Jay Wolt. The next day I shot up to Lewisburg specifically to visit Christy Mathewson's grave. I even considered heading to NE Penna to see Joe Wood's resting place as well but had an early flight the next day and couldn't bring it off.

As I reminded David before & since, on our trip into Gettysburg we ate at Eddie Plank's restaurant. (Not his joint specifically as he died in 1926)
He was buried across the street in Evergreen Cemetery past the soldiers grave sites. A mere 100 yards or so from where we ate.
