Hello all,

The website has been updated with the following 4 articles of great 
historical interest:

Bob Pinsker sends an in-depth "essay" on the ragtime pianist and composer 
James P. Johnson.   This accompanies Johnson's WWI draft registration card, 
and includes much detailed and new information and includes a mention of 
Jelly Roll Morton.

Brian Goggin sends an excellent essay on the famous trumpeter and bandleader 
John Henry Dunn.   This accompanies Dunn's WWI draft registration card, and 
includes much detailed and new information and includes a mention of Jelly 
Roll Morton.

Millie Gaddini sends a superb article by Teddy Wilson --- this is for the J. 
Lawrence Cooks devotees.

Brian Goggin sends an update to his "essay" on the St. Louis ragtime pianist 
Walter Farrington.   Mention of Tom Turpin and Market Street.
