Frank H. Smith is in receipt of a
letter from Congressman Padgett in
which Mr. Padgett that he has secured
and is mailing to the Maury County
Historical Society the journals of the
Confederate congress, in seven vol

great historical value, and are OF spec

contain many chapters that will throw
great light upon local people and in
cidents These works were printed

great difficulty that Mr. Padgett es-
cured the volumes mailed here, as his
personal quota had been exhausted.
