"Red Shirts" edit

I think you may have erred in an edit summary you wrote.[1] I saw that and went to look for myself, out of curiosity. I searched the document for "red shirts" and found it easily.

Spartanburg - Dist.4 Elmer Turaage

May 18, 1937 STORIES FROM EX-SLAVES

"White folks, I sho nuff did ride wid de 'Red Shirts' fer Marse Hampton. [2]

While the page is stamped with a big "27" that might be a page number, Acrobat reports it as appearing on page 31, probably since the page numbers don't start include the title page, etc. Aside from the primary source issues, it's also too much detail for that bio, and belongs, if properly sourced, at Red Shirts (United States). I'm not putting this on the talk page because we shouldn't use primary source anyway. I'm just making a pointless point. ;) Mobi Ditch (talk) 19:36, 13 July 2020 (UTC)Reply
