Confederate Memorial Hall — New Orleans, La. -- Update
Sam Hood, who is a member of the board
of directors of Confederate Memorial Hall, sends us the following news: He has
spoken to Mrs. Pat Ricci, curator of the hall. She reports that as of yesterday
(Aug. 31) the museum is apparently not flooded.
A major concern remains security. His reports indicate that the National D-Day
museum directly across the street from the Confederate Museum has been "gutted
and trashed by looters."
Sadly, we are informed that the homes of every member of the Museum's staff are
under water. The entire staff is now homeless and will have nothing to return
to. Sam informed Mrs. Ricci of the efforts of all the readers of this site to
inform the Civil War community of their plight and she has asked that all of you
be thanked.
More updates will be posted as they become available.
