There was a gas station at the corner of Columbia Drive and Glenwood Road that my friend and I would walk to (we were 12 years old). His father had a convenience store at the same corner. The owner of the gas station (Philips 66 maybe)was a guy named Hugh Gravitt. Decades later my mom told me that Mr. Gravitt was the person that killed Margaret Mitchel while driving a cab in Atlanta and had served some time in prison. I really thought that my mom (about 89 years old) by now had a few wires crossed so I did some Googling and confirmed that he actually was the same Hugh Gravitt. Thanks for filling in many more facts for me.robmchttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07607334648663364712noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31647067.post-53593594230193504332020-12-15T09:02:15.316-08:002020-12-15T09:02:15.316-08:00Margaret Mitchell was a strong woman and not a &qu...Margaret Mitchell was a strong woman and not a "push button" wife. John Marsh was fed up with her appreciation for salacious erotica and probable bisexuality. It would be so easy to cross Peachtree and push her backwards, especially if inebriated. I've been up and down that beloved road for 68 years. Grady is only minutes away. Them good ole Georgia boys covered up the truth about the money transfer by sealing the papers. Margaret is in Heaven, peaceful, free and no one is trying to make into someone she is not. They will get theirs in the end.

I've never heard all the other things, but that doesn't mean there isn't at least a cause to question the media accuracy.Georgia Girl.https://www.blogger.com/profile/07698217519955317704noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31647067.post-85504492560701743512015-04-24T15:07:57.470-07:002015-04-24T15:07:57.470-07:00This may not ever get a response but it would be u...This may not ever get a response but it would be useful if we could find out if Marsh really did transfer funds in those crucial days just after the accident. Does Moulder offer any documentation? Because if so, This would go a long way to proving her thesis.sunnyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03346254923258213169noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31647067.post-7280291195032489582013-11-13T14:51:25.309-08:002013-11-13T14:51:25.309-08:00Fascinating!

I don't remember any whisper of this. <br /><br />It would be an interesting read but I'm a bit put off by a readability issue. Writer or no a professional proofreader can be bought for self publishing. I'm sure it is expensive but maybe worthwhile in this case.

It does sound like there are enough compelling discrepancies and questions to reopen the case and reexamine the evidence.<br /><br />I do agree that even that won't bring peace of heart, though, and I hope Moulder does find that in Christ.Barbara H.http://barbarah.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.com
