July 27, 1911: The following letter has been sent to the news from Mrs. A.E. Cox of Bunkerville, NV. “Dear Editor- Who are to be invited guests at the Dixie Home coming? Only those that helped to settle Dixie at first, or those later on? Mrs. J.C.L. Jones of Overton, NV went to Washington in 1875, was superintendent of the cotton factory at Washington, bishop of Washington ward was one of the Presidency of the St. George Stake for some time. Mrs. Rittie Stout, Julia Stout and Sarah Stout, Mrs. Henrietta Cox, Mrs. Martha Cox all of Colonia Dublan, Mexico were early settlers of St. George. Mrs. Ahee Jones of Bunkerville, NV went to Washington in 1875. Maybe these names have been sent to you before.” [As we understand it, all Dixieites are invited to the Homecoming, but it is specially desired that the earlier settler be not overlooked. – Editor]
