An article in the August 14, 1840 issue of The Citizen Soldier, Vermont, yields at least one perspective on how to be a successful student.  Kids, please don’t try this at home.  What does the phrase “having cold feet” mean anyway?

• Here’s to good health…
• With the holiday season upon us… thanks Bing!
• Patrick Henry… A mid-19th century view…
• Patrick Henry bio in the Citizen Soldier… 1840…
• Presumably not a chamber of commerce sponsored event…
