Time to start a new game. To check out the rules, please see the previous thread.
New players are welcome to join the game at any time. For those of you who may have played a time or two in the past, only to find that you had joined a game in the middle and the other players were far ahead of you, this is your chance to start even with everyone else.
Here are the questions for Week 1 of Game # 38. Thanks to First Division member Robert B. Condon for supplying the questions for Game # 38.
1.What French artist was an eyewitness to the fight of the CSS Alabama and the USS Kearsarge and later executed a painting of it?
2. What Union regiment was known as the "Eagle Regiment" and why? (You must both name the regiment and give the reason why it was so called.)
3. Which Confederate general was buried standing up?
4. Where and when was the final reunion of the Grand Army of the Republic held?
5. (Two point question) What Southern literary figure lies buried next to J.E.B. Stuart?
On question 4, I’m going to be nice and give credit to anyone who can correctly name either the city where the reunion was held or the year in which it was held. If you can name both, bully for you! (But, sorry, no extra credit.)
Answers to the questions for Week 1 will be due by 6 PM EDT on Saturday, April 15. Don’t worry, you have until Monday to get your income taxes done, so you’ll have time to play the game this week.
Good luck!
