Book excerpt: Excerpt from Benton County: Her Organization and Early History, and Memorial Tribute to Her Early Settlers Among the many bright and happy characteristics of the human family throughout the entire civilized world, none are more prominent than: First - The love they all feel toward their early home, the scenes of their childhood, their school-boy days, and their early associations. Second - Their great respect and veneration for old age, and for those who left the homes of their childhood and struck for life and fortune in the great unknown western wilds, and with only brave hearts and strong arms, assisted so much in the growth and development of this great western country, undergoing trials and hardships always incident to frontier life and wholly unknown to the young and rising generation of this country. Therefore, in recognition of these facts, and as a mark of respect, and for the purpose of ever keeping in memory the early settlers, it has been thought right and proper for the people throughout the United States to meet at the several county seats in the respective counties in the sev eral States, on this the One Hundredth Anniversary of our Independence this grand Centennial year, and commemorate by a brief sketch the early organization and history of such counties, and of the early settlers, as a perpetuation of the memories thereof, in connection with and as a part of the general and usual festivities, on this, the 4th day of July, A. D. 1876. This much, by way of introduction, to this, your Centennial celebration. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Voices from the Mississippi Hill Country is a collection of interviews with residents of Benton County, Mississippi—an area with a long and fascinating civil rights history. The product of more than twenty-five years of work by the Hill Country Project, this volume examines a revolutionary period in American history through the voices of farmers, teachers, sharecroppers, and students. No other rural farming county in the American South has yet been afforded such a deep dive into its civil rights experiences and their legacies. These accumulated stories truly capture life before, during, and after the movement. The authors’ approach places the region’s history in context and reveals everyday struggles. African American residents of Benton County had been organizing since the 1930s. Citizens formed a local chapter of the NAACP in the 1940s and ’50s. One of the first Mississippi counties to get a federal registrar under the 1965 Voting Rights Act, Benton achieved the highest per capita total of African American registered voters in Mississippi. Locals produced a regular, clandestinely distributed newsletter, the Benton County Freedom Train. In addition to documenting this previously unrecorded history, personal narratives capture pivotal moments of individual lives and lend insight into the human cost and the long-term effects of social movements. Benton County residents explain the events that shaped their lives and ultimately, in their own humble way, helped shape the trajectory of America. Through these first-person stories and with dozens of captivating photos covering more than a century’s worth of history, the volume presents a vivid picture of a people and a region still striving for the prize of equality and justice.

The committee accepted his advice, the adjourned meeting never convened, and the attempt at organization was abandoned. During 1841 the first regular emigration from the East arrived, consisting of 111 persons, and these came without wagons, since it was the general belief both in England and the United States, that wagons could not cross the continent to Oregon. This idea was industriously supported by English authors, several of whom published books on Oregon about this time, and was strongly urged as a reason why Oregon should be given up to the British. As our statesmen derived their information on this subject chiefly from English sources, they held the same views about the iupracticability of overland emigration from the United States to Oregon. Sir George Simpson, governor of the Hudson's Bay Company, visited the country the same year, crossing overland from Montreal. Just east of the Rocky mountains he passed the emigrants the company was importing from Red river, consisting of "twenty-three families, the heads being generally young and active." They reached Oregon in September, and spent the winter on theCowlitz. During 1841, also, there was the greatest clash yet experienced between the rival religions. The Catholics went among the Cascade Indians, who had been under the influence of the Methodist mission at The Dalles, and induced them to renounce the Protestant for the Catholic creed. This served to intensify the bitterness existing between the religious factions. The Catholic missions were rapidly growing in power and influence, the Methodist were as rapidly retrograding, while the Congregational missions in the...
