Since last writing we have been visited by the Tallahassee Convention car which was given arousing reception here, being met at f^rry and later escorted to the Mis^ issippi Line after meeting* Reception all along the way seems to have been most enthusiastic and from information that has reached us it will be the same the balance of the way. For the first time since Organization Headquarters is in receipt of the kind of information that it would like to got every week, covering the whole Spanish Trail from Ocean to Ocean* Information at hand covers only Tallahassee to New Orleans, and was sent by the Convention car in the form of post cards. We wish there were somebody in each section who would send us a post card giving similar informationweekly* Reports are as fellows;-
