East Texas Storytellers.
Anderson, Brandi, Ed.
Loblolly Magazine, v11 n1 Win 1987
Written and published by the students at Gary High School, Gary, Texas, "Loblolly Magazine" is published twice a year. Issues are frequently devoted to a distant theme. The theme of this issue, "East Texas Storytellers," attempts to capture some of the local color and regional history of eastern Texas. The first article, "Timothy Griffith, Master Story Teller," introduces Timothy Griffith who talks about life as he was growing up in the 1940s and 1950s. Mr. Griffith explains about digging wells, going on a fishing trip, his father, the Internal Revenue Service, feed sack clothing, raccoon hunting, and the Shawnee Creek. Concluding the volume is a collection of East Texas ghost stories. (BZ)
