For the Daily Corinthian

It was a Thursday when Eula Byram was born to her parents, Daisy and Howard Daniel, on Dec. 18, 1913. Almost 100 years ago, Byram was born “way down south,” she said in an unmistakably Mississippi drawl, “in Shuqualak, Miss.” When asked to repeat the name of her hometown, Byram said Shuqualak, pronounced “sugar lock.” “It’s an old Indian word,” said Byram’s daughter, Allie Parker, who sat facing her mother from across the room.

Fire destroys Corinth house BY STEVE BEAVERS sbeavers@dailycorinthian

An early-morning fire destroyed a downtown Corinth home early Sunday morning. Firemen with the Corinth Fire Department received a call about the blaze at the corner of Polk and Linden around 3:30 a.m. Sunday. “When we arrived, the home was fully engulfed,” said Corinth Fire Chief Billy “Lucky” Briggs. “It was a total loss.” All four units of the department battled the blaze of the brick home until 8 a.m. The 302 Linden Street home is owned by Peggy Lindley. Lindley was not at home when the fire occurred. Briggs said the cause of the fire is unknown and is still un-

der investigation. Two units of the Corinth Fire Department returned to the scene Sunday afternoon to knock down flames which began to erupt again. Four firefighters were busy about 3:30 p.m. Sunday, spraying water in the ceiling area on the back side of the house. Smoke began to fill the neighborhood again, so units returned to hit all the hot spots, said one fireman on the scene. Most of the roof burned in the flames and the entire house was gutted. The vehicle in the carport was removed and was not destroyed by the fire, said one eyewitness at the scene. (Mark Boehler contributed to this report.)

The crew behind an Investigation Discovery channel program is coming to Mississippi this week to film a segment on a 1999 murder-for-hire scheme in Iuka. Mike Mathis Productions plans to conduct interviews in the Iuka area Thursday through Saturday for the program “Blood Relatives,” which focuses on cases of murder committed by family members. The case is that of Michelle Byrom, who was sentenced to death for her role in the June 1999 shooting death of her husband, Edward Byrom Sr., an electrician. Michelle Byrom has appealed the case a number of times, arguing that her claims Please see FILMING | 2A

It’s been simple ‘full life’ for Eula Byram BY SARAH ROWLAND

Today

Byram currently resides in Corinth at Country Cottage assisted living and will be celebrating her 100th birthday on Wednesday with her family, fellow residents and employees at Country Cottage and other guests. When asked if she’s excited about her birthday, she quickly and laughingly replied, “No, I am not.” Her daughter laughed with her and explained Byram is a little nervous about being the center of attention that day. Her daughter reminded her they will be having chocolate cake and ice cream which Byram said is her favorite.

When asked her thoughts on having lived 100 years, Byram simply said, “I’m here.” Such simple directness seemed to be the theme of her reminisces. Looking back in history books, times seemed different and harder than they are today. For example, times like the 30s and the Great Depression or the 40s and World War II are two historical eras Byram lived through, though tucked away in the deep south of Mississippi. “I think about it a lot,” said Parker, “the things she’s seen Please see BYRAM | 6A

The producers have obtained court records from Tishomingo County and have sought interviews with local attorneys and journalists. Arch Bullard, who was an assistant district attorney at the time, has agreed to appear on camera to talk about the case, in which Byrom involved her son, Edward Byrom Jr., in a plot to kill his father. The Corinth attorney said it is always mind-boggling to him that a person resorts to murder. “In that case, they talked

He was just a hardworking, music-playing kind of guy. It was just absolute raw greed, and there wasn’t a whole lot of money.” The case had an unusual

twist when Michelle Byrom asked Circuit Judge Thomas Gardner to decide whether she should serve life in prison or be put to death rather than allowing the jury to decide. The judge sentenced her to death. Byrom Jr. testified against his mother as part of a plea bargain. He was sentenced to serve 30 years for his role in the crime.

Today in history Today’s Highlight in History: On Dec. 10, 1520, Martin Luther publicly burned the papal edict demanding that he recant, or face excommunication.

On this date: In 1787, Thomas H. Gallaudet, a pioneer of educating the deaf, was born in Philadelphia. In 1817, Mississippi was admitted as the 20th state of the Union. In 1861, the Confederacy admitted Kentucky as it recognized a pro-Southern shadow state government that was acting without the authority of the pro-Union government in Frankfort. In 1906, President Theodore Roosevelt became the first American to be awarded the Nobel Peace Prize, for helping mediate an end to the RussoJapanese War. In 1931, Jane Addams became the first American woman to be awarded the Nobel Peace Prize; the co-recipient was Nicholas Murray Butler. In 1948, the U.N. General Assembly adopted its Universal Declaration on Human Rights. In 1950, Ralph J. Bunche was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize, the first black American to receive the award. In 1962, “Lawrence of Arabia,” David Lean’s epic film starring Peter O’Toole as British military officer T.E. Lawrence, had its royal gala premiere in London, with Queen Elizabeth II and her husband, Prince Philip, in attendance. In 1964, Martin Luther King Jr. received his Nobel Peace Prize. In 1967, singer Otis Redding, 26, and six others were killed when their plane crashed into Wisconsin’s Lake Monona. In 1972, baseball’s American League adopted the designated hitter rule. In 1987, President Ronald Reagan and Soviet leader Mikhail S. Gorbachev concluded three days of summit talks in Washington.

Ten years ago: A divided Supreme Court upheld the broadest restrictions on campaign donations in nearly 30 years.

A citizen’s report of a burglary suspect led to a drug bust last week. On Tuesday, Dec. 3, Alcorn narcotics officers and a deputy stopped a truck on Highway 45 South after a citizen called and said the vehicle was involved in a prior burglary. Officers got consent to search the vehicle and found methamphetamine, said Narcotics Officer Darrell Hopkins. Officers arrested the three occupants — Keith Allen Dotson, 28, of County Road 8380, Booneville; Timothy Darrell Gilley, 47, of County Road 515, Rienzi; and Alicia De-

Corinth, Miss.

Here’s hoping earmarks define ‘14 Senate race Before Club for Growth and others engage in revisionist history over the question of congressional earmarks in Mississippi’s 2014 U.S. Senate campaign, let’s reflect on the record. Sid Salter The ink wasn’t dry on CoColumnist chran’s confirmation that he would seek a seventh term as Mississippi’s senator before the Club for Growth issued a statement calling Cochran “a strong supporter of wasteful earmarks – something opposed by Republican leaders in both the Senate and the House.” That little bit of verbal sleight of hand ignores the fact that Cochran is among the Republican leadership in Congress and that the vast majority of members in both houses in both parties utilized earmarks for decades until it became politically unpopular. And it ignores the fact that without congressionally directed spending, the discretion in federal spending is left to President Barack Obama and his Office of Management and Budget (OMB) and it ignores that through phone calls, emails and other “soft” earmarks, congressional efforts to direct spending continues virtually unimpeded today. But let’s be clear: Mississippi’s senior Republican U.S. Sen. Thad Cochran has been a prolific master of using earmarks to direct federal spending to the benefit of his constituents. From the 2008 Appropriations bills, Cochran made these scandalous earmarks among many others: $54 million for Mississippi River levees; $28 million for the Tennessee Tombigbee Waterway; $25 million for the Delta Health Alliance; $10 million for the Pascagoula Harbor; $9.8 million for the DeSoto County Regional Wastewater System; $7.6 million for the National Guard; $5.4 million for the Jackson County Water Supply; $5 million for the Gulfport Harbor; $3.7 million for the Stennis Space Center; $3 million for the University of Mississippi Medical Center’s Arthur C. Guyton Building’s renovation; $735,000 Hattiesburg Area Development Partnership; $686,000 for the Tallahatchie County Courthouse restoration; $472,000 for beaver control, $98,000 for Fulton’s wastewater treatment facility; and the list goes on. Over the course of his career in Congress, Cochran has directed federal spending to Mississippi for projects like those and others that concentrated on public education, public health and safety, the national defense, research, and quality of life issues. Few areas have been influenced more by Cochran in Mississippi than transportation through federal highway spending. So in truth, the Club of Growth may draw applause from their members of trying to pillory Cochran on congressionally directed spending, but they will be hard-pressed to find a long line of Mississippi legislators, mayors, county supervisors or small businessmen ready to tar and feather Cochran for fighting for a small share of the federal pie for Mississippians. But if some of the outside groups that are already spending money in an effort to “primary” Thad Cochran want to make this race about earmarks, then he should gladly welcome that debate. The list of cities, counties, communities and institutions in Mississippi that have benefited from Cochran’s wise use of discretionary spending and his willingness to not allow federal spending to congeal in the largest states with the largest congressional delegations is a record he can easily defend. The citizens of Fulton - who needed a wastewater treatment system overhaul - pay federal taxes. There is nothing sinister or “liberal” or unpatriotic about a veteran senator directing some of those federal dollars back there to help pay for that public works project. But if earmarks are to be the battleground of Cochran’s reelection campaign, it will be a rather short battle. (Daily Corinthian columnist Sid Salter is syndicated across the state.

Prayer for today My Father, I pray that I may be spared the deprivations that may come from years spent in selfishness. Help me to realize before it is too late how little self can hold and how much remorse may accumulate. Help me to aspire to ideals that compel me to live an immortal life. Amen.

A verse to share “Now unto him that is able to keep you from falling, and to present you faultless before the presence of his glory with exceeding joy.” -- Jude 1:24

Allain was undaunted by power and money JACKSON— Former Mississippi Gov. Bill Allain was known for his quick wit, sharp analytical mind and willingness to challenge entrenched interests. Allain died Dec. 2 at age 85. Even as he reached the height of state politics in the 1980s, friends and associates say the Democrat never got caught up in any pretentious trappings of office. He rarely entertained at the Governor’s Mansion, and one of his key appointees recalled that Allain remained focused on why he chose government work. “He was very much concerned about what we would call the everyday people — people without title or without portfolio,” said Beverly Wade Hogan, who was director of federal-state programs during the Allain administration, starting in 1984, and is now president of Tougaloo College in Jackson. Allain railed against utility companies that wanted to charge higher rates and federal bureaucrats who proposed storing nuclear waste in Mississippi. If these issues sound familiar three decades later, they should.

Utility rates have been steadily in the news the past couple of years, and the idea Emily of making Wagster Mississippi Pettus a site for nuclear waste Capitol Dome storage has been promoted the past few months by another former governor, Republican Haley Barbour. Democrat Brandon Presley, now in his second term as northern district public service commissioner, was a child when Allain was in office and said he long admired Allain’s approach to governance. “He had pure, undaunted courage to stand up for the average guy who couldn’t give a campaign contribution, couldn’t hire a lobbyist,” Presley said. The commissioner said that several years ago, Allain gave him a cache of old campaign material, including the video clip of a 1983 campaign commercial that showed Allain working up a crowd with a populist

stump speech. “Now, the power companies can’t beat me. The powerful legislators can’t beat me. ... The federal government can’t beat me in putting nuclear waste in Mississippi,” Allain said as people cheered. Some top Republicans say they admired Allain’s broad knowledge of the law. “During the last 20 years, we kept in touch, and he was nice enough to take time to provide counsel on issues of mutual importance,” said state GOP chairman Joe Nosef, who’s an attorney. “His public service to the state of Mississippi and the country should be appreciated by all.” Allain was one of five children born to a Mississippi River captain, and he grew up in Catholic in Natchez. He earned an undergraduate degree from the University of Notre Dame and law degree from the University of Mississippi. He practiced law for a short time in Natchez before serving three years in the U.S. Army during the Korean War. After an honorable discharge in 1953, he returned to Mississippi to practice law, includ-

ing work in Jackson as an assistant attorney general. He won two statewide elections — for attorney general in 1979 and for governor in 1983. As attorney general, he successfully sued to remove legislators from state government boards and commissions. During his first year as governor, he pushed to enact those changes in law. Those moves strengthened the executive branch. During the 1983 election, Republican money men targeted Allain with some of the most scurrilous campaign attacks in state history, sexual allegations that Allain vehemently denied. He told The Associated Press in a 2001 interview that he held no grudge. Democrat William Winter, who was governor when Allain was attorney general, said the 1983 campaign appeared to make Allain draw inward. “He was a very private man, a very private person, did not seek the limelight,” Winter said. (Daily Corinthian columnist Emily Wagster Pettus is a writer for The Associated Press based in Jackson.)

Obama abandons friends abroad in hopes of appeasing foes Watching the twists and turns of American foreign policy while reading Christopher Clark’s “The Sleepwalkers: How Europe Went to War in 1914” is an unnerving experience. Clark’s history, unlike many on the outbreak of World War I, starts not with the assassination of the Archduke Franz Ferdinand in Sarajevo in June 1914, but a dozen or so years earlier. He examines the muddled internal politics behind the foreign policies of major and minor powers -- and how often they were incomprehensible to each other. He also shows how different powers formed shifting and sometimes unlikely alliances, with fateful consequences. Britain ended her longtime enmity with France in the 1904 entente cordiale and broke with the Ottoman Empire to join her “Great Game” rival, Russia. Have we been watching something similar in our own time? Barack Obama brought to the presidency a different approach than the post-Cold War stances of his two predecessors. Bill Clinton and George W. Bush, in different ways, maintained support for America’s longstanding allies while gingerly seeking rapprochement with former enemies Russia and China. With China they estab-

lished strong trade and financial ties, while discouraging Chinese military agMichael gressiveness. Barone When China shelled the Columnist waters off Taiwan in 1996, Clinton sent in the 6th Fleet. Clinton cooperated with Boris Yeltsin until he flamed out in 1999. Bush found that his initial faith in Vladimir Putin was ill-founded. Barack Obama has put a radically different stamp on American foreign policy. Conservative critics perhaps exaggerate, but are on to something when they characterize him as disrespecting America’s friends and truckling to longtime enemies. In his first term, he blindsided allies by canceling missile defense sites in Poland and the Czech Republic to appease Putin. In this term, he didn’t lift a finger when Putin blocked Ukraine from establishing closer ties with the European Union. In his first term, he oneupped the Palestinians by demanding that Israel stop building settlements in East Jerusalem. More recently, he supported the Muslim Brotherhood government in Egypt as a step toward de-

mocracy until it was toppled by the military. In his first term, he called for the ouster of Syria’s Assad regime and said that its use of chemical weapons would be crossing a “red line.” In his second term, he let the red line be crossed and allowed Putin to stagemanage Syria’s agreement to relinquish the weapons. In the process, the United States has abandoned attempts to depose Assad and now depends on his good faith to locate the weapons -- a victory for Putin and Assad’s allies in Iran. Obama’s sharp reversals on Syria have been echoed by contradictory responses to China’s declaration of an expanded Air Defense Identification Zone in the East China Sea, covering the Senkaku Islands owned by Japan but claimed by China. Obama promptly ordered B-52s to fly through the ADIZ without notifying China. But the Federal Aviation Administration also told U.S. airlines to inform China when flying through this airspace. Japan and South Korea took a contrary stance. The November agreement with Iran, concluded after months of undisclosed U.S.Iran negotiations, suspended sanctions for six months, but did not require the dismemberment of centrifuges demanded in previous Unit-

ed Nations resolutions. America’s traditional allies, Israel and Saudi Arabia, have made no secret of their opposition. They fear a nuclear Iran dominating their region. The American Interest’s Walter Russell Mead sees the emergence of an unlikely Israeli-Saudi alliance against Iran, Russia and China, which he calls the “Central Powers” -- the term used for Germany’s allies in World War I. Today’s Central Powers, he writes, are seeking to diminish U.S. power in the Middle East and East Asia, with some success. The U.S. is abandoning friends in the hope of reducing hostility. Sudden reversals of policy, shifting alliances, secret negotiations -- these are reminiscent of Christopher Clark’s statesmen who sleepwalked into World War I. Let’s hope that clashes over Asian islets or Iranian centrifuges don’t have the kind of consequences as that terrorist murder in Sarajevo did 99 years ago.

Total government available cash is at more than 28 percent of total governmental fund expenditures.

Settlement reached in bus crash lawsuit GULFPORT — Court records say Greyhound Bus Lines Inc. and a woman who sued the company over a 2008 accident in south Mississippi have reached a settlement in the case. Megan Clancy sued Greyhound in Jackson County Circuit Court in July 2011, saying she was injured in the accident on Interstate 10 near D’Iberville on Aug. 2, 2008. The case was moved to federal court in 2011. The lawsuit says she was a passenger in a vehicle when the driver slowed for traffic and the bus hit it from behind, causing her permanent injuries.

The terms of the settlement, which was announced Wednesday, were not disclosed in court records. Court records show her brother, Jon Clancy, also sued over the accident in Jackson County Circuit Court, where a jury ruled in Greyhound’s favor. However, the verdict in Jon Clancy’s case was set aside Sept. 30, and the judge ruled Oct. 4 that Megan Clancy’s case could continue, according to court records.

BYRAM CONTINUED FROM 1A

in her life, just like a living history book from a different point of view.” Parker went on to explain that although big things were happening nationally and internationally, her mother and others just kept living their lives. “Whatever was happening in Europe was happening over there and they knew it was bad,” said Parker, but she said they didn’t have the news in front of them as constantly as we do today. Byram agreed the good throughout her life has outweighed the bad and when asked if she would like to relive any of her life said she wouldn’t mind to relive some of the good again, but not any of the bad.

When asked what it was like living through the Great Depression, Byram said, “We ate a lot of ‘taters.’” “Mother always said they didn’t have money in the depression. Neither did anyone else, but they always had food because they grew it. So it was bad, but it wasn’t like it would be for you and me,” said Parker. In a journal she kept in 1991, Byram recalled her family always had plenty to eat as they had a garden in the summer, kept cows for milking and hogs, and she wrote that her mother raised chickens, ducks, turkeys and guineas and they bought coffee, sugar and flour. “We raised corn and Papa would take it to the grist mill to grind it into

meal and half the (corn) meal went to the mill,” she wrote. “Back then everybody canned vegetables and most people had fruit trees and we canned fruit, too. We always had a pretty yard for mama had a green thumb and our yard was covered with many different flowers.” Byram was asked what it was like to have lived through so much history and quickly replied laughing, “Don’t talk to me about history!” Her daughter laughed, too, and said, “You’ve mentioned history, now you’ve lost her,” and explained that history was her mother’s least favorite subject in school and math was her favorite. In her journal, Byram said she started school in Salem, Miss. in a school

building that still stands and has since been remodeled into a museum. “Children back then didn’t just run into the school building,” she wrote, “We formed two lines and marched in. There was no pushing and shoving as we were supervised.” Byram was one of the few to graduate high school and graduated with three other students in 1933. “I was tickled to death,” said Byram about graduating high school. She recalled a test she had to pass to graduate which she didn’t pass the first time around. She said her teacher advised her to go home and “study herself up” and retake the test later, which she did and passed. In her journal, Byram wrote that after she graduated she went to work at a grocery store making $1 per day which to her was a lot of money then. She wrote that about 1935 the Civilian Conservation Corp, a federal work relief project during the Great Depression, built a camp in Shuqualak complete with barracks, a recreation hall and offices. She wrote that the CCC camp was a big thing for Shuqualak since it brought lots of different boys from different parts of the state close by. “Until then, boys were few around here, so we

girls were excited,” she wrote. She said on Friday nights a big truck would pick up girls to take them to the entertainment functions at the camp and recalled that her Aunt Neva was her chaperon. It was at one of those Friday night functions, a young Byram, then Eula Daniel, met her husband, Headard Byram. “I met him there, fell in love with him and I married him,” Byram said, again in a manner that betrays the simplicity of life against the rough backdrop of the Great Depression. The two were married in January 1939. When asked about how they dated she said they spent time together at her house with her parents close by. “Them old people, they were strict,” said Byram, laughing. For example, she told about her mother took the fifth of the Ten Commandments to remember the Sabbath day so seriously not allowing her daughter to crochet on Sundays. “My mama was in the kitchen cooking and I had an aunt and I wanted to learn how to crochet so she was teaching me,” explained Byram, “Mama came in and seen it and said, ‘Put it up. No crocheting on Sunday.’” Byram has two daughters, Allie Parker and

Judy Daniel, five grandchildren, 11 great-grandchildren and one greatgreat-grandchild. “I can’t keep up with them,” she said, smiling “I can’t count them.” Her husband Headard passed away in January 1973 from a heart attack when he was close to 60 years old. Parker said her mother has now lived by herself longer than she’s lived with her husband and that she lived alone until she was almost 90 years old before selling her home and moving to Corinth to be closer to family. Byram has only been living in assisted care for eight years. “She’s always read and worked puzzles,” said her daughter, “She’s always worked and has been remarkably healthy.” Until recently Byram crocheted caps for children for one of her relative’s church programs. An employee at Country Cottage said Byram crocheted a baby blanket and hat for her daughter when she was born. Eula Byram has lived, learned and loved. In 100 years, a simple is a full life, and Eula Byram has had just that — a full life.

Today

Insurance business update Wall Street expects H&R Block will report a loss for its second fiscal quarter. The tax preparer usually reports a loss in the August-to-October period because it takes in most of its revenue during the U.S. tax season. Investors will be listening today for details on how H&R Blockâ€™s pact with online insurer GoHealth is working out. H&R Block expects GoHealth to provide its customers with the option of buying health insurance online.

S&P 500

Investor Pulse

Through late November the S&P 500 index had risen for eight straight weeks, its longest streak since 2004.

Joining in

1,900

The stock market is on track for its best year in more than a decade and investors are buying in. The Standard & Poorâ€™s 500 index closed at a record high Monday, continuing what has been a remarkably smooth and strong run. Record corporate profits and continued stimulus from the Federal Reserve have combined to push the market higher. That has helped investors regain their trust in U.S. stocks, which has been in short supply for years. Investor optimism is above its historical average and preliminary figures suggest investors made a net investment in U.S. stock mutual funds in November. If the final numbers bear that out, it would be the second straight month that investors deposited more money than they withdrew. That doesnâ€™t sound like much, but it would tie the longest such streak since the summer of 2009. Wall Street professionals are also optimistic: Most investment banks are forecasting further gains in 2014, though not as big as this yearâ€™s.
