Marquis de Lafayette, TO MADAME DE LAFAYETTE.





July 23rd, 1777.





I am always meeting, my dearest love, with opportunities of sending

letters; I have this time only a quarter of an hour to give you. The

vessel is on the point of sailing, and I can only announce to you my

safe arrival at Annapolis, forty leagues from Philadelphia. I can tell

you nothing of the town, for, as I alighted from my horse, I armed

myself with a little weapon dipt in invisible ink. You must already

have received five letters from me, unless King George should have

received some of them. The last one was despatched three days since; in

it I announced to you that my health was perfectly good, and had not

been even impaired by my anxiety to arrive at Philadelphia. I have

received bad news here; Ticonderoga, the strongest American post, has

been forced by the enemy; this is very unfortunate, and we must

endeavour to repair the evil. Our troops have taken, in retaliation, an

English general officer, near New York. I am each day more miserable

from having quitted you, my dearest love; I hope to receive news of you

at Philadelphia, and this hope adds much to the impatience I feel to

arrive in that city. Adieu, my life; I am in such haste that I know not

what I write, but I do know that I love you more tenderly than ever;

that the pain of this separation were necessary to convince me how very

dear you are to me, and that I would give at this moment half my

existence for the pleasure of embracing you again, and telling you with

my own lips how well I love you. My respects to Madame d'Ayen, my

compliments to the viscountess, my sisters, and all my friends: to you

only have I time to write. O! if you knew how much I sigh to see you,

how much I suffer at being separated from you, and all that my heart

has been called on to endure, you would think me somewhat worthy of

your love! I have left no space for Henriette; may I say for my

children? Give them a hundred thousand embraces; I shall most heartily

share them with you.





“Fort PITT, July 23, 1783.

(Jordan’s Grove) The funeral of Richard Gray was held last Friday at 1 o’clock at the home of William Goodlove. He was the six year old son of Drs. R.H. and Nettie Gray.

July 23, 1920: On July 23, M. O. Smith, one of the trustees of the Buck Creek Church and a leader in the Brotherhood, filed the petitions for the formation of a consolidate district with the county superintendent. The petitions were accompanied by qan affidavit maintaining that there were 120 (male) voters in the proposed district.[17] The petitions bore the signatures of 62 qualified voters, a bare majority of the total number of voters that proponents claimed resided in the district. The Nineteenth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution would extend women the right to vote in less than a month. One hundred and twenty would prove not to be a very good estimate of the actual number of eligible voters in the proposed district. Despite their week long revival on behalf of the consolidated school and years of preparation, Buck Creekers knew that the results of the election would likely to very close. In the Nineteenth Amendment was ratified before the election, as appeared likely, women seemed to hold the balance of power in determining the result.[18]



July 23, 1925: “Delhi Dept.”, “A meeting of the Ku Klux Klan was held in the park Sunday evening, and a second large crowd was in attendance. The meeting was addressed by a state organizer from Dubuque, songs were sung, and apparently the proceedings were of much interest to the members of the order. There were many spectators who watched the proceedings and heard the talk with great interest and curiosity. The flaming cross was not in evidence”.Hopkinton Leader. [19]

July 23, 1941: In White Russia an Einsatzkommando unit commander reported that some Jews were able to ‘escape into the surrounding forests and swamps’ because they “had managed to organize a ‘signal service’ between villages” that warned of the approach of the Nazi killing squads. [27][21]



July 23, 1942: Adam Czerniekow, the head of the Warsaw Judenrat, commits suicide rather than assist the Nazis in deporting the Warsaw Jews.[1] Born in 1880, Czerniakow was the leader of the Jewish council of Warsaw, the Judenrat. Czerniakow had held the position for 3 years and kept a diary of over 1000 pages chronicling the formation of the ghetto up to the beginning of the forced transports. The Germans had ordered him to provide them with a list of names for deportation. His response was a list of his own name written hundreds of times. The day before his suicide, the Nazi officer in charge of the deportation procedure threatened to shoot his wife if he didn’t cooperate. In his suicide note he wrote "I am powerless, my heart trembles in sorrow and compassion. I can no longer bear all this." [2][28][22]

July 23, 1943: Julius Gottlieb, born February 20, 1927 in Berlichingen. Resided Berlichingen. Deportation: ab Westerbork. July 20,1943, Sobibor. Date of death, July 23, 1943, Sobibor. [30]

It was a camp designed for the murder of Jews on an industrial scale. But as the first reports of what they found leaked out, the western allies dismissed them.[25]





July 23, 1944: The Nazis deport 1700 Jews from Rhodes, Italy, to Auschwitz. [33][26]





July 23, 2006



By coincidence, on the same day that I discovered that Job Kirby was at the Salisbury Prison, I found out that that my daughter, Anna Lee Goodlove was to play in a soccer tournament the weekend of July 22, 2006 and be staying in nearby Winston-Salem.







Upon arrival to Salisbury, North Carolina:







The librarian at the History room at the Rowan County Library in Salisbury N.C. had done some research for me prior to our arrival. Upon our arrival, she shared some interesting information that was not what we had suspected.







Phillip Barton



Library Director



Rowan Public Library



PO Box 4039



201 West Fisher Street



Salisbury, NC 28145-4039







There was no record of Job at the Salisbury National Cemetery. There was a record of his being treated at the Salisbury Prison Hospital and being released.



There was a record of him in the “Index of Prisoners of War of the United States Army Who Enlisted in the Rebel Service at Salisbury, N.C.”







This of course was not what we expected and after doing additional research at the Salisbury Library, my 15 year old daughter, Jacqulin Kirby Goodlove and I made our way to the nearby Salisbury National Cemetery.







There is strangeness that permeates this place that is difficult to explain. It is clearly a



memorial to those who gave their lives for the ideals of the Union, located in a place surrounded by those who fought for the south or were from descendants of slaves and slave owners and their families. It represents more than that however, to those who have friends or family members who were POW’s or soldier’s that are missing or whereabouts are “unknown.” There are many unanswered questions at this place. More questions than answers. “Unknown” graves and unknown stories. What is Job’s story?







During our visit I learned from a former employee of the cemetery that the museum at the cemetery has been closed for years. We arrived prior to the 4:30 PM closing time however we learned that the people that assist in finding graves often leave early. There are many markers that indicate “Unknown Soldier” at the cemetery. Also there is a large area with no markers. These are the eighteen trenches that many were buried without markers because there were too many. The lady at the library said that they know virtually everyone that died at Salisbury. Perhaps they just don’t know who was buried where. It is a solemn place that stretches about sixteen acres. This is not the prison, or the yard. Only the grave area that was outside the prison, across the train tracks in a nearby corn field. A train passed on those tracks while we stood and watched. It reminded me of how that sound of the train must have made those feel that were already in the prison while it brought more men to an already starved and overcrowded prison yard. There are now many more questions than answers. Questions about Job Kirby, of how and where he died. Questions about his desertion to the confederate army and when he was admitted and released from the Salisbury prison hospital.







The young lady visiting the Salisbury prison where Job Kirby died and William Harrison Goodlove arrived only weeks later to rescue and guard the trains carrying the former prisoners to safety is descendant Jacqulin Kirby Goodlove, my daughter. [34] [27]
