meet in Houston April 10Th, 1906. This
will make the third time in the last
three years that Chickasaw County
has had the pleasure Of entertaining
this venerable body Of Christian word
ers. This Presbytery Is one Of the
oldest in the Synod Of Mississippi. It
was organized in 1929 by a body of
Presbyterian Missionaries to the
Indians. AT this time the Chickasaws
on the North and the Chocktaws on
the South, were almost the only inhab-
itants Of East Mississippi. When the
Presbytery was organized it was very
large ~territorlally, covering all Of East
Mississippi and a part Of Alabama;
but it is now very small covering only
a few counties near the TOmbigbee
River. Hon. n. L. Morrison and Rev.
J. W. MOseley, jr., are the representa-
tives from the Okolona Presbyterian
Church.

Thomas Dixon, jr., In his new great
book, the Olansman, cites the true
feelings Of twO-thirds of the people
residing north of Mason and Dixon's
line toward the South, showing most
vividly how all the suffering, carnage,
reign Of terror wrought IN those awfnl
days of reconstruction were due en-
tirly to the cold blooded, cruel, grasp
ing mercinary politician found in every
party and represented 10 every com.
munity. To this class may be easily
traced the woes Of ages, and perhaps
their deadly perils may not be entirely
stayed in all the ages to come, since
the seed seems indestructible, so long
as the man Of heart continues to 40
cord even the vilest knave the benefit
Of a doubt. No prettier Illustration Of
the real feelings Of the true in either
section, once so far separated, than in
Mr.. Dixon's quotations Of the Ian
quage Of the ardent lover to his sweet
Southern bride, when she asked him
In plighting his troth during the recon-
struction period, "And will you help
our people lift this curse9' The an
swer came like q ripping swell Of
