He ran it with their son, Theodore Mason who was also the barkeeper. Theodore displayed a $100 confederate states "blue back" which he purported to have received from General Jubal Early in Alexandria about the time of the Confederate Generals raid on Washington DC. Early is said to have passed the bill over the bar, with the remark: Give me a gallon of good whiskey, and you may keen the change. James N. Rudd served in Co. H.
