Stidger Meets Grand Commander Dodd And Inventor Of The Gatling Gun
Started 1864-06-05Ended 1864-06-05
Stidger delivers a leter of introduction from Grand commander Bullitt to Grand Commander Dodd. The two other men with Dodd at the time was Doctor Gatling, and news paper owner Joseph Bingham.
After introductions Stidger tells Dodd about the Union spy named Coffin, and how Doctor Bowles had dispatched two assassins after him.
Stidger also asks Dodd if he could get some Constitutions and By-Laws of the Sons of Liberty to take back with him as Bullitt did not have any and needed some to use to make copies from.
Dodd also goes over the first three degrees of initiation with Stidger. This is when Stidger gained knowledge of the Third degree having never taken any of the oaths.
