The town of Greeneville, TN, is characterized for the spelling of Greene after
the revolutionary war hero Nathaniel Greene. Local citizens are very careful to
include the "E" in his honor. Greene was one of Washington's noblest
and most effective generals. What is not widely known, according to the Ripley
people, is that Greene had first been rejected as a private in the Rhode Island
militia because he walked with a limp.
