Untitled[edit]

I deleted reference to caisson. Freeman and the Lexington Gazette of 10/21/1870 describe a hearse. Actually the article had mentioned both a hearse and a caisson, which made no sense. One or the other, can't have both. What is source for boots reversed in stirrups? Junglerot56 03:22, 30 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Well, this is embarrassing. I am pretty sure it was in the cited brochure from the Lee Chapel, but I cannot find my copy of it anymore and the Chapel does not have it online. Therefore, I removed the reference to the boots and stirrups and clarified that the casket was riding on the caisson (which is what was informally called the hearse previously). If anyone finds a copy of the brochure, please help us out. Hal Jespersen 00:09, 6 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Traveller by Adams[edit]

How does Adams' book equate to further reading? "Traveller" by Adams is a fiction book; the article is about a non-fictional subject. Linking a fictional work in "Further reading" to a non-fictional article is disingenuous, if not out-right unencyclopedic. 71.234.215.133 (talk) 14:56, 16 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Which battles?[edit]

Apart from Second Bull Run, it doesn't say in which battles Lee rode Traveller. Valetude (talk) 16:57, 3 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Spelling[edit]

I removed the bit about double-L vs single-L spelling in the lead. It was based on an ngram as a source, which was misinterpreted anyway. Regardless, it was original research. The bottom line is that the double-L spelling was more common in contemporary en-US as well as en-UK; but that is also "original research". 2606:A000:1126:28D:E5B5:B088:3A46:1619 (talk) 07:01, 16 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
