"POWER OF ATTORNEY SENT FROM AFRICA
A rather curious document has just been entered of record in the County Register's office. It is a power of attorney sent from Southern Rodesia, Africa, and gives to Luther McAdams and John B. McAdams of Belfast, Tenn., power of attorney in the matter of handling affairs fro James McAdams of the Masterpiece Mine, Gatooma. The document was tied in may green ribbons and bore several gold seals. "It was some official document," said Bob Williams, and "and such records are rather unusual, especially from such a long distance. The document had to be recorded in several counties of the state."
