The Raid on Holly Springs, Mississippi The events at Holly Spings all began with a simple idea from an obscure Lt. Colonel, now largely forgotten; an amateur solder from the frontier boom town of Rockwall, Texas, John Summerfield Griffith. The already exhausted forces under the command of General Pemberton were retreating farther south to protect the last remaining stronghold on the Mississippi River, Vicksburg. However, the desperation of the current situation which lead to the events at Holly Springs, would for a final time, place Earl Van Dorn in the dynamic center of Confederate defensive efforts. www.d-a-c.com /HollySprings   (314 words)

Trail of the Hellhound: Charley Patton Patton's grave is located in Holly Ridge, Mississippi, and the tombstone acknowledges his pivotal role in the development of the Delta Blues. Patton's hypnotic three-note songs also deeply influenced Clarksdale's John Lee Hooker, who recorded his own version of Patton's "Pea Vine Blues." Bukka White also cited a desire "to come to be a famous man, like Charley Patton," and demonstrated a similar knack for playing dance songs for extended periods. Patton's music began to exert considerable influence; guitarist Tommy Johnson had moved to the Dockery vicinity circa 1913 and was soon playing Delta blues including Patton's "Pony Blues." Around 1914, Patton began playing his guitar with members of the Chatmon family, working picnics and frolics. www.cr.nps.gov /delta/blues/people/charley_patton.htm   (511 words)
