Meridian Boom Lights Up a Mississippi City Visit
Billars Letter from Meridian recounts a rapid 360 mile trip from Chattanooga, praising Meridian’s growth from 800 to 18,000, its canals, mills, gasworks and streetcars, and highlighting the town’s temperance leadership, schools, colleges, and water system. The writer notes cotton traffic, political leanings toward McKinley, and a humorous local tale about the mayor and a curious Northern visitor.
