In the past, we have supported the relocation of the Confederate memorial to the Florence City Cemetery; however, there's a new movement afoot that may catch traction. Should the city move the monument to Pope's Tavern?
This may be a much more appealing idea to satisfy several points of view. Yet no relocation can seemingly be considered until the repeal of current laws. The repeal lies in the hands of the state legislature. Need we say more on what could go wrong here?
Still, the idea of Pope's Tavern gives us renewed hope for a quicker solution to this problem. The idea originated with UNA professor emeritus Dr. Thomas Ott. Kudos to Dr. Ott for an excellent plan.
Thanks to the reader who reported a non-working link on our e-book Ron Wikkid. We have it repaired for those murderinos who think this Shoals crime tale makes a perfect Valentine's Day gift.
