User from the Internet can see the 3rd vhost site now. The current access
control directives are:

Order allow,deny
All from all

Now that Apache can route to the 3rd vhost block I edited the access
controls to tighten things down and enable localhost access as:

Order deny,allow
Deny from all
Allow from [redacted public IP subnet] 127.

And it works great!

The issue was more complicated than it needed to be due to my lack of
understanding of DNS routing integrated with Apache (using a public IP for
the alias directive). Thanks to everyone for their help!
