Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Biographical Sketches of James Kimble Vardaman
The subject matter of these sketches was prepared for an address which I made before the Vardaman Club of Jackson, Mississippi, in September, 1921. This address met with such approval that at the request of many of those present I have reduced it to writing, as nearly as memory permits, with such additions as I have deemed interesting. The purpose in publishing this booklet is not political; neither is the purpose to enter into any controversy with any individual, nor to say anything or refer to anything derogatory to the character or reputation of any other person. If, incidentally, facts are recited which reflect in any way upon any other person, it is done not with the in tention of injuring such person, but merely for the purpose of stating such facts as are deemed necessary for the pur pose of this story. What is here set down is for Senator Vardaman's friends, and not for his enemies; or to refute their arguments. The purpose is to give a word picture of the public career of James K. Vardaman, and, in a lesser sense, an outline of the political happenings during the period that he has served the people of Mississippi in an official way.
