| My second visit to the second "White House" of the Confederacy in Richmond. This served as the official residence of Confederate President Jefferson Davis after the Confederate Capitol was moved to Richmond. I had time on this visit to take the very well done tour and visit the Museum of the Confederacy next door. |
