The Yazoo Chapter of the National Society of the Daughters of the American Revolution Vice Regent Priscilla Harper presented a program on Rosalie to Iklana Chapter NSDAR in Belzoni on Nov. 8.
Harper serves as Hospitality Chairman on the Rosalie Governing Board. Rosalie has been owned by the Mississippi Daughters of the American Revolution since 1938 and is often referred to as “Our Lady on the Bluff.” Her program consisted of a beautiful Power Point presentation of each room in Rosalie along with a history and description of the items in those rooms.
The meeting was held in the home of Mrs. Rose Marie Turner. Mrs. Kate Halbrook, Iklana Chapter regent, presided. JoAnne Collins, Yazoo Chapter regent, was a special guest.
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.
