Senator Stennis (D mins)
Dear Senator,
I am thankful for you and other miss-ians for you fighting for our rights.
I am sending you under separate court facts showing where Truman got his civil
rights Congress. Please take time to study these facts - I think it will help in your fight
against the civil rights programs. I wont take up more of your time.
So good night and may God bless us all in our efforts to do his will. Jesus Christ
so loved us he gave his life for us that we might have life everlasting.
Remind people(Senators that in the old bible their law was if they caught any one
assaulting a woman, they were taken out of the gale and stoned to death.
One lynching might prevent milions of assaults.
Sincerely,
XXXXXXXXXXXX
