an old man who promised to have
the class prophecy written for her

down to the present generation dimmed by the mists of hundred years, yet they are of sufficient force to keep alive q mild form of awe. Whenever you are dl- rected to any place the trace must be a part of it, if you are to touch it or come near it. It serves the people there in lhe manner that a meridianal line serves the astronomer or geographer. Through put all it's 75 or 30 miles in the middle Tennes- see uplands it follows the main ridges be- tween the water erosions on the right and on the left, but never 'abandons it's main purpose to reach Natchez by the F ather of Waters; and, like many another faith ful public servant, it is cast aside, if not condemned when well worn and when the requirements of a more advanced con- diton render it of less utility.
 What manner of man have within these no years trodden the course of the old Natchez Trace and what oxen and horse in so long time have assisted the rains and sleets in so greatly eroding it's steep places?'
 First of all. the Natehez Trace should not be confused with the Jackson Military road The Military road runs from Co lumba and Mount Pleasant down by the way of Shoal creek, to Florence, Ala, and thence diagonally across Alabama to the middle of the east side of Misss sippi while the Trace runs much more to the eastward, passing over 20 miles west of Florence and into the northeast corner Of Mississippi. The Military road seems to have been begun in 1908, while the Trace was begun in 1S61 The purpose of the Trace was chiefly commercial though there can be no doubt that it was impor- tant, from military point of view, to have road leading to the French, Span- ish and Indian possessions. During quarter of century the Natchez Trace was the greatest and most important high way in all the country within 200 miles ors more of the Mississippi. Practically all of the export trade of Tennessee Ken lucky and of the ohio went down the ''vers to New orleans, and the men and returns came back over the Natchez Trace As to military purposes, it has frequently been said that Andrew Jack son went to New Orleans over the Trace
 in 1874, but this is a palpable error. mas much as Jackson and Coffee were at Pen sacola when the tocsin was sounded and vent from that place" The Natchez Trace has no important military history.
