Rounds Up Records.
DR.. Dunbar Roys.and, director Of The
department Of archives ani history q
Mississippi, is in Washington, D. C., to
secure transcripts of the old Confed.
crate war records on file there to com.
plete the collection in his department
DR.. Rowland has made arrange.
ments with the war department IN
Washington to secure these tran.
scripts, and have them brought to the
capital of Mississippi, to go into the
archives here. The transcripts will
be of records 10 far missing in the
collection, records that will form con.
Meeting links between the ones al.
ready on hand and those that have
for so long a time been missing,
DR.. Rowland is very hopeful that at
the next session of the Legislature the
lawmakers will make an appropriation
to defray the expenses of publishing
all these old records In book or pam
phlet form, SO they can be easily oh.
tanned by any INT who might want
them, As 1t is now, those interested
in looking them over 60 to the histor'
ical department, and old records FIRE.
Q~uently handled are liable to become
torn.
The records of which DR.. Rowland
will secure transcripts In Washington
include the rosters Of many Missls
