James Longstreet's Account of the Battle of Gettysburg

At the Battle of Gettysburg (1-3 July 1863) Confederate Lieutenant General James Longstreet urged his commanding officer, General Robert E. Lee, to reposition their forces on the evening of Day 1. Lee refused, as the Union Army was before him and he had never retreated from a battle once engaged.

Reptile House in Druid Hill Park

On August 5, 1948, Mayor Thomas D’Alessandro and other Baltimore City dignitaries came by motorcade to Druid Hill Park for the official opening of the Baltimore Zoo’s new Reptile House. They entered an oval room with a shallow, tile-lined pool at its center where small alligators and turtles swam. Set into the walls of the room were brightly lit tanks containing an eye-popping array of local and exotic snakes, lizards, and amphibians. Artists employed by the City’s Bureau of Parks had painted woodland, desert, or swamp scenes inside each tank to mimic the natural habitats of the occupants.

Marker dedication to honor onetime fixture in Glen Rock community

Every year, Jon Nicklow pages back through Glen Rock’s long story to find an anniversary to celebrate. And every year, that anniversary is remembered in bronze. A memorial to the borough’s Community Recreation Building rose to the top of the Glen Rock Historic Preservation Society’s list this year. The Baltimore Street building opened in 1926, though it did not live to celebrate its century birthday. The building, bad roof and all, was demolished in 2010. But memories remain — a host of them. It served as the Glen Rock High School gym, Borough Hall, police headquarters, the Glen Rock Carolers hall, site of countless community dinners and much more. “If you grew up in town,” Nicklow of the Historic Preservation Society said, “you definitely knew where it was.” At one point, the building was expanded to cover the family home of prominent residents Jim and Mark Kroh.
