My dear Senator;
I read about the tiffle you and Sen. Eastland had with Sen. Ferguson. You and
Sen. Eastland did proud justice to fair Mississippi. I am proud we now have two smart,
bold and upright men to represent us in the Senate. And I'm sure you can be much help
toward knocking into a cocked hat the President's so-called civil rights program.
I'm supposing you have gotten the hang of the rope to realize the whole state, and
whole south are watching and waiting for all our representatives there - as well as Gov.
Wright (may God bless him)
Best of good wishes to you,
XXXXXXXXXXXXX
