A Landmark on the Move

Some knew it as a schoolhouse, some an antique store but it began as a Presbyterian Church in Smyrna on Center Road in Attala County. The building is now being moved again. In the early 1900’s the building sat stately on Center Road and was home to a robust congregation at Smyrna Presbyterian Church. The old building was replaced by a more modern brick building and was moved to Kosciusko for the first of three stops. Its first stop was an antique store on the west side of Highway 35 bypass.

OPINION: The Horror in Mississippi Burning

I’ve been watching this movie since I was a teenager, usually in the same living room where my granddaddy would grunt, shake his head, and refuse to say what he thought of it. Now that I’m grown, and a bit more conscious, I think I understand the silence. It’s a hard movie to love and a harder one to dismiss.
