I spent several days in Navasota with my cousin, E B Hendrix, and family, enjoying a very pleasant time. I afterwards thought that I would visit E jans Prairie, my old home place, the place of my birth 22 years ago. This little town is 25 miles, north east of Navasota located on the I and G N Eailroad. I found that the folks at this little town are very friendly and social.
