FROM MISSISSIPPI

w cl11O1 N11O0'1 1Ap1111 O. AOGA Editor Home News,
 McCrory, Ark.
 Dear Sir:
 A few lines from an ole Confederate Veteran who once lived in good old Wood ruff County when McCrory was only a cotton field more than 50 years ago while the South was being over-run with carpet-bagers. Those were reconstruction days wher something had to be done tC save our country. Those were the days of the Ku-Klux the grandest organization that was ever known. They work. ed for four long years by night and drove the carpet bager out of the country placed the Democrats in power and then, and not until then the South was a free people The Democrats elected theil own ooficers and the trouble was over.
 I was living at that time in Mississippi. I got into some trouble and was forced tc leave my home. 1 crossed the river at Memphis and landed in Woodruff county, Ark, a stranger, in the fall of 1869 and remained there until 1872 Those good people over there treated me so nice l married an Arkansas girl and have her yet. When the Democrats got in power I returned home with much love for those Arkansas people and every chance have I make them a visit which is not often. It makes me feel sad to go back there, just a few faces left that I knew when I lived there, they have nearly all crossed over the river to their eternal reward Our country is facing the most critical time just now that we have ever faced. For the last three or four years money was so plentiful folks lived so high bought too many fine automo. piles, burned too much gaso. line and bought too much high-priced land on install. ments. When the bottom fel out of cotton it left them broke and a great many farmers in this country don't yet know where they can get help tc make this crop. As for my self, am sitting steady in the boat and kept what money had and I can live one more year if nothing breaks.
 I keep posted on the times in Woodruff county by read ing The Home News sent me every week by my friend, the editor, whose father anC mother were among my best friends.
