Message: [QUOTE="ClifSpliffy, post: 3312709, member: 9260"] 'north bridgeport' and no props to Jennie's? (formerly of The Hollow, a few blocks from Jerry's Apizza) and who let you in anyhow, since I don't recall that plebiscite. recall! anyway, recently a relative showed me a copy of a pic on salerno's wall in which another relative is part of the original staff. I didn''t know that relative, and I've never had their za. now, I will, but not because of the photo. zagats can't touch the BY pizza review. maybe we won't pull your card if you stand in the middle of McLevy green, and shout 'scamozza!' three times. honest abe did it, and then won his Presidential campaign. 'In February 1860, [URL='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abraham_Lincoln']Abraham Lincoln[/URL] came east to speak at [URL='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cooper_Union']Cooper Union[/URL] in [URL='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_York_City']New York City[/URL], where on February 27 he impressed eastern Republicans as an intelligent, dignified statesman and gained support in his bid for the presidential nomination. Since the speech went over well, he made several others (all similar to his Cooper Union speech) in Connecticut and Rhode Island, traveling by train to various cities. After stopping in Providence, Norwich, Hartford, Meriden and New Haven, he made his final speech in the evening of Saturday, March 10, in Bridgeport.[URL='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_Bridgeport,_Connecticut#cite_note-Holzer,_Harold_p._201-19'][19][/URL] His train was scheduled to stop at 10:27 a.m. in Bridgeport, and he likely met with Republican leaders. "He was entertained at the home of Mr. Frederick Wood at 67 Washington Avenue, and it is said that there he had his first experience with New England fried oysters," wrote Nelson R. Burr in [I]Abraham Lincoln: Western Star Over Connecticut.[/I] "Another tradition is that while he stayed in Bridgeport a little girl, Mary A. Curtis of Stratford, presented him with a bouquet of flowers and a bunch of salt hay from the Stratford meadows. ... Where the flowers came from at that season, and how the hay could be cheerfully green, is not explained.' nah, he came for the za. repent! [/QUOTE]
