The inefficient Maycomb fire truck was pushed from

town by a group of men . There was another incident

which happened before the burning of the whole

house. Mr. Avery, one of the Maycomb residents, was

upstairs in the house, throwing a mattress and other

furniture out of the window onto the street. Suddenly,

the stairs caught fire and he began climbing out of the

window. Haplessly, he was stuck there which

dumbfounded many.

A sudden breakout of fire at Maudie Atkinson's house causes pandemonium between Maycomb Residents as they scurry to help. CONTINUED..

Soon later, Miss Maudie's

house collapsed with a gush of fire.

It was already morning when everyone

began to leave.

When she was in a better mood,

The Klan UnmaskedThe Klan UnmaskedThe Klan UnmaskedThe Klan Unmasked

Last week , I published an article on this

newpaper headlined

' Why I believe in Segregation'

This sparked alot of support from the well known

Ku Klux Klan in Alabama.

I was contacted by the group last Wednesday when

they asked me to put an advertisment on the

Maycomb Weekly for their upcoming ralley.

This was my first time encountering the group and

I was keen to learn more about them.

It may not come as a shock to you that the KKK has killed over 6000

Negroes since the founding of the group in the late 1860's. The group began as a social

club of young men in Tennessee. These men had all one thing in common , the hatred of

'niggers'

They quickly adopted a ghostly white uniform ( shown below ) and rituals that frighten

superstitious Negroes till this day. The Klansmen lost little time recruiting members with

55,000 members throughout the country, although most are based in the south.

The Klans aims are to have a supreme white race or

otherwise known as 'The Perfect American Race' .

Their hatred towards Negroes is obvious however

they are also against Catholics as they believe they

are not 100% loyal to America considering they are

also loyal to the Pope.

The Klan today take part in daily lynching and terrorising of Negroes , saying their job

is to 'Clean Up America'.

Page 2

The reputation of the Ku Klux Klan has been somewhat misunderstood in the latest

few years according to the group.

The group describes themselves as 'an organisation that creates a purer world,

and we do that by killing all non-whites in the world, including blacks. We also

kill the Catholics and terrorise and evacuate people from houses by burning

crosses'.

If you wish to join the group , visit there website atwww.KuKluxKlan.com

I Hope to see you all at the next ralley.
