    3. Bill, You reference to check writing and cotton chopping made me think of my Uncle Austin Williams in Warren (Bradley Co.). He was my dad's brother, and "pore as Job's turkey." Anyway, they were all born around Florence in Drew Co., and my uncle was visiting his sister, Inis Humphry who was living near Rohwer or Jerome....where they chopped cotton......aunt Inis had bought a BIG jar of peanut butter...and Uncle Austin had never heard of it let along eat any of it.......he said he sat under the front porch and ate that whole 'dad-burned' jar.......thought he had died and gone to heaven. To prove that we can rise from humble beginnings......my Uncle Austin went on to portray the Doctor in the movie, "The North and The South." But we still talk about that peanut butter.........and he still loves it!!! Jann ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com
