Please join General Grant at the Judge Holt home in Hardinsburg, Kentucky on Saturday, September 22nd, instant, for a celebration of Civil War History and the saving of a national treasure!
Judge Holt achieved national prominence serving in the administration of President Abraham Lincoln, who appointed him the nation’s first Judge Advocate General of the United States Army, a position he held from 1862 to 1875. His most memorable role as JAG came following the assassination of President Lincoln, when Holt presided over the trial of the Lincoln assassination conspirators including the first woman ever hanged by the federal government, Mary Surratt.
