(It is with considerable pride that we present the following historical notes by one of the State’s leading historians, Dr. Jim Tom Tully, a resident of Lelli White, Mississippi. The name escapes us at the moment, but Dr. Jim Tom Tully teaches at a small college near Jackson, Mississippi. It is interesting to note that Dr. Jim Tom Tully has been offered chairs by such big schools as Harvard, Columbia, Yale, Dartmouth, and others. However, true to his native South, Dr. Jim Tom has felt that his true value is at the small college near Jackson. The Editor.)
By Dr. Jim Tom Tully
Before history began, there were two groups of prehistoric creatures living. Both peoples were inately [sic] ‘serving’ peoples and their country was called Hireland. There were the blood-colored savages of the hills and the cannibalistic barbarians of the lowlands. These latter were known even then the world over for the green pigmentation of their respective skins.
In the year 4 A.D. these two groups met in an orgy which lasted several hours; and the result of the orgy is the Scotch-Irish race as we know it today. This race lived a sensual sarabande until their barren land was literally slimy with snakes. Although these people had a natural affinity for snakes, engaging ever in snake dances and snake games, their interest soon wandered to other less snaky lands. By this time the race had become much what we recognize as typical of that rate [sic] today– sandy-colored, brown-speckled, thin-nosed, thin-lipped.
A man named Patrick first thought of the plan to come to America. For his plan, Patrick is today proclaimed a saint in the primitive religion of the Scotch-Irish. At this time the ‘H’ was dropped from Hireland as a means of confusing Americans. Many of the immigrants who poured into our country posed as ignorant, illiterate farmers, and others posed as wealthy landowners in the South. Today, still, there are some creatures of Scotch-Irish descent who are comfortably posing as loyal and true Americans and are not serving at all.
