Henderson KKK Initiated New Members April 7, 1925

Henderson Order Is Still Growing. . . Initiate Large and Small in the Town of Henderson on April 7th

The regular meeting of the Raymond A. Crabtree Council No. 562 of Henderson met on April 7, 1925, at which time five new applications were brought in and three were given their degrees.

At the special meeting on last Thursday, six were given their degrees. An amusing incident happened at his meeting. The largest and smallest took their degrees at the same time. One man weighed 265 pounds and the other weighed 115 pounds. The meeting was most enjoyable from a social standpoint.

At the regular meeting held tonight, seven new applications were brought in and four others were voted on for the degrees in the order. There are now 26 in waiting to take degrees.

When the score was counited, it was discovered that Captain Littlejohn Faulkner’s side was 1,730 and Captain C.J. Tankersley Jr.’s side was 1,330. The campaign will run only two more weeks.
