RECOGNITION OF MERIT.


One of the greatest honors that
has fallen to an American citizen
In recent years, was the publication
in full by the London Times of the
celebrated article written by DR.. B.
f. Ward of this place in defense of
the Old South. The London Times
never copies from American papers
except In cases Of great merit. By
it's publication In the leading paper
of England, the whole of Europe, in
fact the entire world has learned
much truth concerning the South
and its citizenship and the great
good accomplished will live for
generations. DR.. Ward wrote far
better than he thought when he
penned that famous and mastery
defense of our great and good
Southern country and citizenehip
as 1t passed from generation to
generatlon.-WlnOna Times.
