  John Sebastian Little (1851–1916) - Encyclopedia of Arkansas
John Sebastian Little was active in Arkansas Democratic Party politics for thirty years, holding the positions of prosecuting attorney, judge, congressman, and finally being elected governor in 1906.
Little decided to seek the Democratic nomination for governor of Arkansas in 1906, the same year that the incumbent governor, Jeff Davis, attempted to unseat veteran United States Senator James H. Berry.
When Little suffered a relapse and was unable to resume office by May 14, 1907, the date that the legislature adjourned, the newly elected president pro tempore of the state senate, Xenophon Overton Pindall, became acting governor and served for virtually all of the remainder of Little’s term.

John, I've always considered myself kind of a guitar-savvy person, but I have to admit that until I started seeing your solo show years ago, I didn't really know for sure what a baritone guitar was.

As I write this I'm looking at the photo of John in the middle of the CD booklet and the smile on his face matches the smile his music will put on yours.
