Special to The Herald
Mississippi College held Honors Convocation in April, recognizing the university’s top students for their academic achievements and service to the university.
Daniel William Jones, a international studies major from Benton, was presented with the Porter/Trott Memorial Award.
The Porter/Trott Memorial Award is a monetary award given to a senior majoring in foreign languages who has exhibited exceptional ability in this field of study.
Dear Editor:
In the 6 April 2013 edition of The Yazoo Herald you published a letter from Cynthia Fuller, "Thanks to (Van) Foster for helping get bridge replaced."
After reading this lettter, I had the impression that the bridge was completed and traffic was moving along normally.
Wrong! Last Sunday I was on my way to homecoming at Providence Baptist Church. I turned north onto old 49 and saw the signs that the bridge was out. I assumed that they hadn't gotten around to removing the signs. I expected to cross Thompson Creek on the new bridge. When I approached the creek the road was barricaded and construction equipment was down in the creek.
Perhaps The Herald can keep us updated as to the progress being made on the new bridge.
