SLRC Weekly Update

Dear Heritage Supporters:

This has been quite a great week here at the Southern Legal Resource Center.  H.K. Edgerton is quickly marching through Alabama and is scheduled to reach Mississippi by next Tuesday.

H.K. is making rapid progress!  He is overwhelmed by all the love he has received thus far from black and white folks.  He has done a lot of teaching and hugging along the way too.  You may purchase one of the flag's that H.K. has carried on his march.  Below I have listed the dates (and towns) of flags that are still available.

October 14 Asheville, NC to Hendersonville

October 15 Hendersonville to Tuxedo

October 16 Tuxedo to Travelers Rest, SC

October 17 Travelers Rest to Easley

October 18 Easley to Clemson

October 19 Clemson to Toccoa, GA

October 21 Toccoa to Cornelia

October 22 Cornelia to Gainesville

You may have a flag with a $50 donation to the March Across Dixie.

Also we are proud to announce that the video coverage of the march cannot be put on one tape.  There is just too much to cover, so it will be four hours long, available on two tapes.  You may reserve your copy of H.K.'s March Across Dixie with a $50 donation.

Louisiana Division Challenge: The Southern Legal Resource Center is challenging the Louisiana Division of the Sons of Confederate Veterans to raise $10,000.  If the LA Divison accomplishes this worthy achievement, the I.N. Giffen Camp #758 will formally present to the LA Division the Regimental Flag of the 7th Louisiana Infantry (Pelican) Regiment.  This flag was hand sewn and painted in 1986 after considerable research.  The flag is constructed of 4 blue silk satin panels hand sewn together and fringed with 100 year old gold bullion fringe.  Blue silk ties attach the flag to the pole.  On one side is hand painted in oil a Mother Pelican feeding her young and the words "Pelican Regiment."  On the other side is a circle with 11 gold stars enclosing a laurel wreath enclosing the words: "CSA Seventh Louisiana."  The flag comes with a two piece oak and brass pole with halbered top and gum rubber cover.  The flag cost over $1000 in 1986 and was carried by the recreated Regiment that traveled to Manassas by train for the reenactment in 1986.  It was also carried for the 140th anniversary Manassas Reenactment.  Mrs. Frank Douglass 2nd VP General of Metairie and other UDC ladies helped to pay for the flag.  It was presented to the Texas contingent of the 7th Louisiana as they boarded a train in Houston for the Manassas event and again presented in New Orleans at the Columns Hotel.  Let the contest begin!

A claimant has been added to the DuPont case.  A claim will be filed on behalf of the claimant and filed with the EEOC with in the next few weeks.

Castorina
