Mr.. Clifford's interest in the war often
leads him to some little known or halffOrgOt-
ten fact Recently, he decided to find the
grave Of Maj. Henry Writ, cOmmandant Of
the infamous prison camp at Anders0nville.
One Of the few war criminals Of the Civil
War, Writ was brought to Washington, tried,
found guilty and hanged. Searching old rec
Ords, Mr.. Clifford located the obscure grave
in Mount Olivet Cemetery
Like most buffs, Mr Clifford takes sides
in the war. The glamOr Of the Lost Cause
attracts him, and he has become an ardent
champion of the South Although born in
Michigan, he constantly shows his bias for his
adopted State, Virginia Recently, when
visited by a friend he saw an old gray tomcat
streak across his yard.
That Of cat is Rebel cat" he declared
How so?" querried the friend.

night the neighb0r's dog ran that old cat under
that rOsebush there. Well. sir, after he tangled
with that old tomcat, he came out Of there like

They used a long rod with q cOrkscrew-

In his search for mOment0es Of the war,
Mr. Clifford does not have to 60 far. Some Of
his best finds have been made in the Washing

searched the grounds of old Fort Richardson.

He unearthed a belt keeper, several MIME

Over the years, Mr.. Clifford has stored his
finds in the basement Of his home at Tysons

on the battlefelds, he has purchased many
items from other collectors and from arsenals

deavored to give them every as

Of spending so this could be ac-
cOmplished. These extravagant
budgets have been cut Just under
billion dollars in each Of the
last three Democratic controll-

of this wailing is also heard on
the state level. The Republicans
fail to mention or recognize that
the last state surplus was under
the last Democratic Governor,
John w. Bonner.
