Speaking in a thick Southern drawl, the 26-year-old attorney described his first meeting with Meredith in January of 1961. "I had just addressed a group at Jackson State College," a Negro institution.

...pullover at $24.50 and a cardigan for $29.50. Sak's also features the 100 per cent camel hair wool blazer. This natural shoulder model with three pearl buttons and flap pockets sells for $69.50.

[that] strait-jacket of 19th century compensation fantasies" where "tokens of love, honour, courage" masqueraded "as rules instead of exceptions." Even years later, when he and his men are caught and tortured by the Japanese in Malaya, he counsels them, ''Hang on to your lives," wondering as he does so if he should have said "courage," then swiftly dismissing the thought with a snappish phrase: "But that is all fable." Stuffed Symbols. Despite this, Conway finds himself teased, almost...
