Dear ' Diary,
At last the day which I have long anticipated has
arrived, .and I am on my way to Clarksdale,. Mississippi,
where I will visit my cousin for a while. We are in
Eeflin, Alabama, for the night, and so far the scen
ery has been beautiful.
The tv/o most important cities we went through to
day were Columbia, South Carolina, and Atlanta, Geo
rgia. We stopped to get a good look at Stone Moun
tain, which has General Lae and part of his Army
carved on it. The mountain is located abcut 18 miles
from Atlanta. It really was an interesting sight to
see. General Lee’s nose is five feet tall. A lunch
eon was given several years ago in his shoulder, and
twenty-seven people were seated around the table
with several people left standing. The carvings
haven’t been finished, because the man who start
ed them died before he finished his job; but they
hope to start working on the project again sometime soon.

Vile have arrived at our
destination, hot and tired.
Clarksdale, a small twon
about the size of Wilson,
North Carolina, is in the
middle of the Mississippi
delta, where the climate
is hot and sticky. The
Mississippi River is only
thirty miles away,

Today we started on our
long journey homeward. To
night we are in Athens,
Georgia,and I have crossed
mountains until my ear
drums roar and feel very
much enlarged.
