We are indebted to our good friend,
Mr.. E. NJ. Bee, ST., for the copy of the
Savannah Press from which the above
article was taken. Mr. Bee has a per-
sonal interest in the President, as he
was well-acquainted "in auld lang
syne" with Roosevelt's mother, whom
he knew as Martha Bullock, and
with whom he played in childhood, she
being one year younger than himself.
Pres. Roosevelt's uncle, DR.. James
Bullock, was the family physician of
Mr.. Bees father. In the light of his
relations with the president S splendid
Southern ancestry and of his own
we'll known predictions for what is
highest and best in his native South
land, it would be superfuous to state
Mr.. Bees position on the late Roose-
Welt Washington episode. He believes
Uncle Mingo's dream was a reality.
