        @BeschlossDC Were rumors ever confirmed about him escaping in women's clothes, or was that pro-Union propaganda?

        @MiltownBucky @beschlossdc He reportedly accidentally grabbed a woman's shawl when trying to escape troops. It got blown up into a dress.

        @BeschlossDC -oviously General Lee was a pragmatist and Jefferson Davis was the forefather of GOP-States Rights-obstructionists.
