I remember when you found that rattail spoon! You were so excited!

Why was a school for Civil War orphans founded in 1895? Wouldn’t they all be grown up by then?

We questioned that, too. The only I can figure is that the veterans were very young when they served in the Civil War, and maybe when they were 40 they had kids, and died thereafter? Otherwise, no idea.
