CASEY, Dan to Journal - Span Am War
Source: Crawfordsville Weekly Journal 22 April 1898 p1
Daniel V. Casey, a son of Timothy Casey of this city writes the Journal from Fortress Monroe and in the course of his letter says, “It may interest a very few of the Journal readers to know that I’m doing some staff correspondence for the Chicago Record. I’m in the wake of the flying squadron just now, but I’ve a roving commission that may take me as far as Porto Rico if I can run a gentle bluff on Commodore Schley. This is merely a warning that you may get a two line obituary into type. I am very truly yours, Daniel Vincent Casey. - kz
