Text Any textual data included in the document A HOSTILE DEER. Creates a Little Excitement Around the State Capitol. Mr. Jesse McLean, mine host at the Edwards House, presented the State a pair of fine pet deer on Thursday evening, and had them placed in the capitol enclosure. They had been raised in the backyard at the hotel and were considered as docile, gentle and perfectly harmless as poodles, but since their experience Friday morning one or two people seriously doubt that proposition. <a href="http://msstate-exhibits.libraryhost.com/exhibits/show/legislators/guilford-vaughan--panola-count">Guilford Vaughn</a> is one of the porters around the capitol. <a href="http://msstate-exhibits.libraryhost.com/exhibits/show/legislators/guilford-vaughan--panola-count">Guilford</a> was at one time a very important personage in this State. He was a member of the Legislature, representing the good old county of Panola, and enjoyed the distinction of being, according to the writer's recollection, the only negro Democrat in the House during reconstruction days. Now <a href="http://msstate-exhibits.libraryhost.com/exhibits/show/legislators/guilford-vaughan--panola-count">Guilford</a> is a pretty sensible old darkey, but his school teacher never learned him much about the peculiarities of a big buck that has been led around town with a rope over his horns until he got awful mad, and therefore when he went walking off down the hill with a bucket of water in his hand he did not know what the aforesaid buck meant by shaking his head and snorting until he found himself rolling on the ground with the deer dancing a Highland fling on top of him. <a href="http://msstate-exhibits.libraryhost.com/exhibits/show/legislators/guilford-vaughan--panola-count">Guilford</a> got up as soon as he could and retreated at a double quick. Major Govan, hearing about old <a href="http://msstate-exhibits.libraryhost.com/exhibits/show/legislators/guilford-vaughan--panola-count">Guilford</a>'s experience, got a little corn and went down the hill to pacify the deer. The Major and the deer were old friends and he counted largely on this acquaintanceship. So, walking up slow and easy he said, "Billy, Billy; come here Billy," and "Billy" came, at full tilt - and the Major adjourned sine die. Those of his friends who saw him in retreat say the deer gave up the chase early; he was completely out-distanced. If the Major enters the race for Congress down in the sea-coast district, and runs like he did yesterday, he will have a walk-over, sure. The deer were taken back to the hotel yard, it being considered unsafe to keep them in such a public place as the capitol yard.

Text Any textual data included in the document Thus in the exciting and memorable election of 1875, we elected two colored men, Milton Littlejohn and Felix Eldridge, respectively Chancery and Circuit Clerk, the highest and most lucrative offices in the county. In addition to these there were two other colored men, <a href="http://msstate-exhibits.libraryhost.com/exhibits/show/legislators/guilford-vaughan--panola-count">Guilford Vaughn</a> and Ned Hightower, elected on our ticket that year. In no county election during the past eight years have the Democrats of Panola county failed to nominate and elect, when they could, colored men. Through all these years we have been earnestly and persistently urging and entreating the colored people to affiliate with us politically. Though they heard, but few of them heeded us, and we had well nigh despaired of a successful effort with them, when, lo! even at this late day, they come to us and declare they will clasp hands and co-operate with us in honoring with official trust none but the best, ablest and truest men of both races.
