THIS DAY IN HISTORY:

1921 - Two murder cases had been set for trial in Hopkins County.... They were for W.R. Rodgers accused of killing Sam Vest and for J.K. Freeman indicted for the death of Will Grayson. And the Miller Grove community was mourning the death of Aunt Mollie Wise, who had died at 63 years of age. And, the F.E. Trowell Variety Store was announcing their stock of all your favorite Valentine needs!
1930 - The Black Community if Sulphur Springs was mourning the loss of two of their highly esteemed citizens, Aunt Rachel Roland and John Newton. Mrs. Rolland had passed away following a lingering illness, while Newton had perished from apoplexy.
1939 - The Greenview Quilting Club had met at the home of Mrs. Wil Haynes. And, a white man wielding a toy pistol had robbed three black men on Tomlinson Avenue, near the Telephone Building. However, he had been caught and was spending time in the county jail. An announcement of 171 members in the senior class at Sulphur Springs High School, made it the largest class to ever graduate, to date.
1989 - Spacecraft Challenger exploded on take-off, stunning the world.

Quote of the day:
