Dear Elsie:

be interesting to know how many
of the descendants of the original

-Four generations of my family
have been subscribers-my grand
mother, Catherine Davis Bowie
my father, Washington Bow
myself, and my children.
You were born at Roxbury Mills
but did you-know it had belonged
to Allan Bowie Davis? We also
owned what you knew as Specht's
Mill and bone mill up the little
valley to the west of Bud Specht's
home. The foundation was partly
there few years ago.
Mr.. Fields and my dad were
close friends. Nv Dad was a Con-
federate spy and, like Mr.. Fields
spent some time in The Old Capt.
tai Prison. Remind me and III give
you details.
The best of everything to you.

The Prominent
Dorsey Family
Traced In Book

The Dorsey Family" record
of its first five generations in
Virginia and Maryland, has been
privately published by Maxwell J..
Dorsey and his wife, Jean Muir
Dorsey, of Urbana, III, and Nan
ME Ball Nimmo, of Baltimore.
Beginning with the immigrant,
Edward Darcy Dorsey, and his
three sons, Edward, John and
Joshua, about 1887, the lines of
both sons and daughters have been
carried down, tracing marriages
and relationships with many con-
temporary families.
Among those listed as allied
families are Wyatts, Warfields,
Towards, Hammonds, Worthing-
tons, Ridgelys, Todds, Elders, Grit
fiths, Gromwells, Clagg S,
Berrys, Rockhoulds. and Norwoods.
Charts of the lines of descent
and old maps giving the locations
of the early plantations of the
family in Maryland, as well as
pictures of some of the old homes
and photo-copies of original wills,
signatures and seals, form a clear
picture of the family's growth.
Other documents show the activi-
ties, interests and achievements of
individual members.
The name of the family, al
though originally spelled Dorsey,
as it appears in Photographic re-
productions of the signatures of
the three sons of the founder, ap-
pears in old documents in many
varied forms, due chiefly "to the
WITNESSES of court clerks, etc."
"Some of these are Darcy, Dascey,
Darsey, Dawsey, Doreey, Dorcy,
and Dorsy."
Genealogical authorities have
pronounced the book colorful, au-
thoritative, and dramatic, and an
authentic reference source.
Additional information regard
ing the book may be secured from
Mamie Ball Nimmo, 1907 N, Cal
vert street, Baltimore, Maryland.

But why, you ask, go to
a priest? Why not confess
our sins directly to God?
Ask the man who goes to
Confession and here's what
be will tell you: Sin is an ofense
against God, it must be forgiven
by God. 1t is God, not man, who
determines how forgiveness must
be obtained. Christ plainly pointed
/ this out when He empowered His
Apostles and their successors to for
give sins or to refuse forgiveness.
Whose sins you shall forgive"
. Christ said, they are forgiven
I them; whose sins you shall retain,
they are retained" Qohn20;21-20.
Thus Christ authorized the ApoS-
ties, and their successors, to pardon
or to deny pardon as they judged
the sinner worthy or unworthy. To
do this they had to know what they
were forgiving the secret dis
positions of the sinner =. his sor-
row and willingness to repair the
wrong done to his neighbor by his
sins. Who could make this known
but the sinner himself and what
IS this but Confession?
But Confession the Sacrament
of Penance is only one of the
seven Sacraments Christ left in His
Church. Yes, seyen-no more and
no less! Christ's religion is not
merely a message to be accepted,

cry. determined leather-tmower.
Several days before the fight
the boxing crowd knew what a
Cranford victory would mean.
Dundee had been promised a
match against Joe Baksi if Jackie
defeated Buonvino impessively.
and after Baksi would come a
shot at the title. Going into the
match, Crawford was only two
fights but two victories - away
from the championship.
The DuiId-Up Tuznbles
However, in this racket you
never know. Upsetting all the
dope, Buonvino won the fight. He
beat Cranford's ears off. The
Build-Up, at this point. definitely
sagged. Sports writers. disgusted
with Cranford's reluctance to
trade punches with Buonvino,
wrote him off as potential cham
pion. Buonvino himself, however,
aroused no violent acclaim, which
made Crawford look all the worse.
There were excuses. Trainer
Atcel attributed the loss to the
fault of many young fighters: they
forget everything they've learned
when they get their big chance.
Jackie himself swore he never
tried harder, but somehow his
arms and legs didn't answer.
Once before Crawford and his
partners had come upon such hard
times. One Ross Strickland,
mediocrity with strong right
hand punch, had kayoed Jackie.
In the locker room after that fight

Madison Square Garden. Gran
ford scored a two-round knockout
Of Red Cameron, who had been
coming fast. Moving beautifully
and showing an assortment of ar
mament behind his left -jab leads,
Jackie broke Cameron's nose with
a left hook IN the first round. In
the second he finished his man
with a powerful right uppercut.
Dundee figured that Crawford
was worth special attention after
that. He hired Ray Arcel, one of
the top trainers in the business, to
work with Crawford. Arcel gave
Jackie tremendous confidence,
talked to him about the big money
ahead. taught him to do all his
punching off his left-hand leads.
Jackie won impressively in his
next match. against Bernie Rey-
nolds. who was being touted as the
best young heavy in the business.
Crawford knocked him down twice,
cut up his face with staccato left
jabs and took an easy decision.
Hitting the Big Time
CRAWFORD had won 80 of 81
fights by then. and Dundee began
talking bigger with rival managers.
He went shopping for sitter COM
petition and bigger money. After
some haggling, Crawford was
signed to fight Reynolds again,
only this time in a main-event
bout in Madison Square Garden.
He won handily, jabbing Reynolds
silly.
After this fight Dundee was be-
sieged with big-money offers. The
Build-Up was in high gear. Chris
even turned down huge sum for
Cranford's contract. Many mana
gers, out for a hit-and-run buck,
match their fighters against foes
with too much savvy. Dundee
didn't do that. He brought Gran
ford along slowly. to the point
where he was, to many experts,
the logical man for the title within
the next couple of years.
Dundee. after careful considera-
ton, next matched Crawford
against Gino Buonvino, a new
heavyweight from Italy. Buon-
vino didn't look as if he had much,
but he was a hard-working, hum

want to quit?"
Crawford sagged back on the
rubbing table. Cut up and hurt,
he thought for only an instant.

He asked for a return match
against Strickland, boxed beauti-
fully and knocked him out in the
tenth round.
NJ Want 10 De Vicioas"
To-Day he feels that he can over
come the Buonvino setback. Sports
writers who admit that no current
heavyweight has more skill cruelty
suggest that Jackie does not care
enough about fighting.
Il dc" he says. Il want to be
a vicious fighter. l know how it
was against Buonvino. l even
booked up at the clock during one
round But IN get over that IN
punch with anyone. l want to be
champion"
Jackie has gone back to his old
training routine. He climbs out
Of bed at six, runs three miles
for wind and lees, returns
home to shower and rest. At
$50 he eats breakfast with his
wife and two children. He walks
or golfs until his gym workout at
1890. The gym routine is still the
same, with calisthenics, drills on
the heavy bag, shadow boxing and
sparring.
Suppose Jackie never gets to the
top - what will happen to him?
Well, when he has no immediate
fight scheduled, he keeps busy re-
pairing and installing refrigera-
tors. Whatever comes, he's smart
enough not to wind up walking
on his heels.

low the same training program.
Like Crawford. they're ready to do
everything possible to climb to
the championship. And like Gran
ford. they know it's the longest
shot in sports.
As far as Dundee and Arcel are
concerned, the Build-Up is over.
Once a fighter gets as close as
Crawford is, it's up to him. Will
Crawford make it? Maybe, maybe
not. But somebody will. The
Build-Up is clicking along, in doz-
ems of gymnasiums and fight
clubs. And it's about due to pay
off. The End
