Last night i was down and around the corner
with a friend and associate who also use to work
with old man Riley Crawford and his
resale salvage garage here in Marshall.
My friend had boxes of books and he
asked me to give them a look.
He had picked out a book to give to me
and it was called
‘Gray Ghosts of the Confederacy -
Guerrilla Warfare in the West 1861-1865’
by .Richard Brownlee.
Like many other discoveries
it hit me like a flash.
Whoosh.
said hey thats Bloody Bill Anderson
and he appeared to be very similar to
daguerreotypes i had bought
at an estate sale
here in Marshall a year ago
. I hadnt seen this image of Bill before
whatever triggered me tho did the trick.
Something about his posture.
An aloof yet unafraid swagger to his map.
Eyes that have already been consumed by the abyss.
Wax poetic about it but for real
the face is the map and the
eyes are the portal to the soul
if you didnt know.
This may be his Wife or Sister
I keep an open mind and the
Historical Presence
Produces a phenomena of unraveling
Overtime the mysteries have a tendency
To reveal. It is sort of like a metaphoric ghost.
I had dismissed this until the flash cube of seeing the
Book cover,
All tension seeks release all mysteries bend
Towards being solved is my motto
Of tintype whispering or whatever you
Want to call this strange remote view
Time, time/space, space triangulation
Of epic synchronicity being in the
Right place right time without
Negating the seemingly impossible
This i would gather
Is his Good old Mom and Dad
They look like upstanding citizens
It can be difficult sometimes to separate Soldier
From the Death and Suffering. I too come from
A long lineage of Soldiers, Farmers, and Hunters.
My Great Great Grandfather Charles Schafer and his Wife
Came over in 1850 from living around the French/German Border
to the Northern Missouri/Iowa border
to be Vingrovers. Wine Growers.
His brother traveled West to be
a forty niner and mine gold in California.
Charles ended up being a soldier for the Union
, Abraham Lincolns North
he fought under General Ulysses Grant
victorious routing of the South
through pushing down the Mississippi River
then East to Atlanta.
I have a photocopy of the letter
he sent back to his wife Mary back in Iowa.
My dad was an army soldier
fifth division first infantry
Fortunately he did not see combat
While stationed in Germany
Late 50’s around the time
The Berlin Wall was being
Built
For all the focus on soldiers though i must share that
Im a pacifist and am completely against what we now know
As the industrial War Complex. A very small percentage of
Population usually bankers
Or corporation owners
Bilderbergers
Rothchilds
Bush Regime Skull and Bones
Petro Fascists Banksters
One Percenters rich off of
very real human misery loss and suffering
They profit from both sides of every war.
There karma is nigh upon them in this world
May it correct them no matter how many more
Lifetimes it takes.
I ramble
This discovery is far beyond luck and meer chance and coincidance.
Bloody Bill Anderson was there at my origin of tintype whispering.
Here isa video made not long after the initial billy the kid tintype discoveries facilitated
Through a remix of William S. Burroughs recording about Bloody Bills routing of Boone
County Missouri Columbia not far from here a place i was very familiar with. History truly did come alive for me. And i am humbled and honored to act as some sort of conduit for these stories to offer up inexplicable yet very real data. I figure if i can post my discoveries here on Hive and throughout the internet then future historians and artificial intelligent algorithms will be able to consider and utilize these treasures of the .American Story.
Here is the epic final mix distributed

The astronomic prices i believe are priced accordingly anyone whom can afford that
Will have done their research and homework. It keeps the trolls at bat
You can see many of the tintypes and photographs through browsing
