I can´t remember the title of a story and I don´t know on which site I
found it last year. It´s an ongoing story about two boys. I think it´s
on their farm land where two gayboys find a small cave or something.
They discover that people lived there about 100-150 years earlier. They
also find a dairy. It´s written by a white boy/man telling his story,
how he joined the army (US army during the American Civil War) as a
drummer boy, he got wounded and a doctor saved his life by amputating a
limb, a leg I think, yet not sure. In this dairy he tells us how he ran
back North with the help of a black boy, a slave. He´s not welcome at
his parental home, a farm, so he and the black boy travel further. And
he´s falling for this boy.
Do you know perhaps which story I´m looking for??

Thanks,

nala.

... about Gays and the Civil War period is a chap (I believe he's) named Worthington or perhaps Waddington.

I'll see if I can find his web-site, it being time I visited there again.

I do know he's a member of the Gay Authors web-ring, and that might help me locate him once more. I used to have both his web-site and e-Mail address, but, things being as they are with upgrades to Operating Systems and computer crashes and such I no longer do.

He is a Railroad enthusiast, and at one time either volunteer or worked part-time on what had become sort of a functioning toy Railway running through parts of Georgia, Alabams and Mississippi.

Warren is this the place your thinking of
http://swarri1349.tripod.com/ and it has a story link
"No Greater Love" may be the story

... that is such sad news.

Yes, Henry, this is the chap I was thinking of, and the last time I corresponded with him would have been the summer of 2007.

He and I shared a rather ragged correspondence over a number of years, beginning late in 2001 I think it was, with months and often a year or more intervening between contact.

He and I shared a mutual fondness for "red-headed" males, and especially if they be uncircumcised. Two of his stories featured one character that was a red-head; one in a very minor role, the other a principal lead. It was this circumstance that initially brought us together through e-Mail at Christmastime that first year; but, it was his humanity and enthusiasm for his hobby that fueled all further interest I had in him and his writing.

I feel much regret for not having made more of an effort to have maintained a greater degree of contact with him. Updates to his stories were becoming few and far in between by early 2006, and I simply started to check his web-site with less and less frequency as a consequence. In our final few e-Mails he spoke of largely his recent trips to Civil War Battlefields, and how empowering their sense of permanence was to him, and of the strength they gave him to continue his writing. In earlier e-Mails he waxed enthusiastically about his "Railroad", the people he had met, the countryside he had seen and the journeys he had had upon riding it, and would in future make.

I have thought of him a number of times in recent months and, like so many "casual" friendships, he sort of got lost in the shuffle of more pressing needs.

I sincerely hope that Stephen Wallace Warrington was fully able to realize all of his dreams.

Yes, there is a lot of stuff on that web site. The author's humanity shines through it. I shall go back and read more. Isn't it interesting how a good story overcomes failures of punctuation, spelling and grammar and can seize your heartstrings?
Love,
Anthony

I just looked through this website before school today. It is really a shame this guy passed away. He sounded genuine and caring and I want to read the things he wrote. I read all that stuff that Eldon wrote about slavery and the Civil War and I bet he and this guy would have had alot in common. I know guys from the south and they are all into history and especially history of the Civil War.
