Perry Location The location of the interview Perry Funeral Chapel Transcription Any written text transcribed from a sound Shelley: Tell us what you know about the Evans House that's supposed to be haunted. Paul: There's some apartments up there. And some people had hired... were going to have a party if memory serves right? And they had hired this girl to do some cooking up there for them. And there was some drinking in which one of them made a remark to her, and she talked back to them, and they supposedly slapped her, and she fell and hit her head on the fireplace part. And they took her and wrapped her up in a rug, I believe, and carried her out to the country. And put her in a pond. Shelley: Azzie Martin. We have her name now. Charles: Off the Cannon Road. There was a little creek bed out there. Paul: I don't know that anybody was ever charged or anything. Gail: Well, they said they actually had a trial. Shelley: And the person was a hung jury is what one source tells us. Gail: The man is still alive that supposedly did the murder and lives in Moultrie. And the same name keeps coming up. I mean, it's come up a dozen times [unclear phrase]. But some of the Shinglers, I understand, were also involved in this. You know, back in that time, it was like a kangaroo court anyway.

Title A name given to the resource 'Fire Ant Festival' my choice Description An account of the resource Editorial by Wiregrass Farmer Editor Ben Baker advocating for the Turner County festival to be named the Fire Ant Festival. "I like the idea for a number of reasons (not just because I came up with the name.) Think about the other festival around Georgia. Georgia has kudzu, mule, hogs and gnats for goodness sake with festivals in their name. "We can have a mascot, an ant in a fire chief's hat and bunker gear standing with a hose ready to put out a fire. Or maybe an ant in camp fatigues and a flamethrower strapped to his back... Fire ants are everywhere down here. Everybody has been bitten by a fire ant at least once. I can't think of a single redeeming feature for these insects. Our festival would be an honoring tribute to the fire ant but a simple recognition for all this tiny creature has done since coming here from another continent..."
