Most excellent, Ben! I look forward to reading the other installments to this story. Charles Read left an indelible mark on West New Jersey and you are doing all of your readers a great service to bring this story to them.

He really does seem to not get a lot of attention besides passing mentions here and there in our favorite Pine Barrens books.
I am about 1/2 of the way through writing part 2. I was hoping to get it done tonight, but I got a late start today.
Sorry I haven't posted part 3 yet. It's about 10% written, but I have some more research materials (thanks, Jerseyman) to go through still and it's shaping up to be a pretty busy week.
Part 3 is 95% written and has been handed over to Jerseyman who, by the way has been a HUGE help to me, not only in just these articles, but in others, to do some fact checking and general "hey you should write this better."
So the next installment will be coming soon. Part 4 will be hot on it's heels, and then there will be some Revolutionary War stuff coming up.
