...beneath the veneer lurks the same old gang of Kluxers that rode the moon-dark nights across the Mississippi Delta during Reconstruction. They still instill terror and engage in violence. That fact was demonstrated one night last week by the eerie glow of Klan crosses burning in a score of Mississippi communities. In Louisiana, TV Newsman Robert Wagner was seized by armed Klansmen as he tried to cover their secret meeting in a barn not far from Baton Rouge. He was forced to remove his trousers, lie in a poison ivy patch, where he was beaten with a belt before...

She sets out raisins, notes that "the mockingbird always takes two, four, never an odd number...
