Crow, 89, of Ethel, Miss., the oldest Ford driver In Mississippi, traversed the historic old Natchez Trace in a covered wagon eighty-seven years ago. j " rugged today at 89 as the age in American history he so pic turesquely typifies, J. M. Crow of Ethel, Miss., i3 the oldest Ford driver in Mississippi and one of the oldest in the United States. When as a babe of two years he rode with his parents In one of a train of 30 oovered wagons out of Cobb county, Georgia, into Mississippi, the, old Natchez Trace followed by the brave little band was still infested by the swashbuckling ruffians whose bloody outrages gave that era its place in this country's history as "th? outlaw years." One of his vivid memories Is hear ing, a3 a boy of six, the news of Gen ial Scott's victorious assault on the heights of Chapultepec which ended ' the Mexican War In 1847, and his proudest memory is of honorable ser- j vice as a Confederate soldier during j the Civil War. When the southern | cause coHapsed, Crow was compelled i to trudge 400 miles on foot to the old homestead at Ethel where lie settled down to rear a family. In the intervening years he has seen the lumbering stagecoach give way to the fleet automobile and the comfort able motorbus, the soggy gumbo and rough corduroy roads of his childhood to the wide, paved roads of today, and although he was long past middle age before thq modern automobire became commonplace he Is as enthusiastic a driver as youngsters who can boast less than one-quarter of his years. vFive generations of Crow's family are frequently seen together in his Model A Ford, the second of it* type Crow has owned and driven.
