The Clark House Historian at his desk, wondering where October went…1
It’s been over a month since our last Clark House Historian post! Sorry about that. It’s not that I haven’t been busy with JCH writing and organizing. I have been. But most of my work for the last month has been done behind the scenes as the Jonathan Clark House graphic designer and webmaster.
For a good roundup of what’s been going on, please head over to our JCH official website and click on the News & Events page for details.
And that’s not all…

NOTES:
- No. As you probably guessed, that’s not me at my desk. The actual title of today’s image is: It wont be long now. Washington, D.C., Oct. 13. Democratic Senator Sherman Minton, of Indiana, gazes at his calendar to learn that November 15, the date set for the convening of special session of Congress is only a few weeks hence. Senator Minton is on of the few Senate members who remained in the Capitol during the Congressional recess, 10/13/37. From the Library of Congress online collection.
- Regular readers will note that the November Newsletter cover article draws upon my longer and more lavishly illustrated October 5th CHH post on the same topic, Talking about the Old Military Road, the DAR…and JMC.
