1001 Stories For The Road

This gothic horror story judged by many to be one of the best ever written, takes place in London when an attorney is made aware of the presence of a man named Hyde who has shown cruelty to a young girl he chanced to run into and tromp over on the street. The attorney slowly realizes that Mr. Hyde has an alternate personality- and one that is committing murders. The story esxplores the duality of human nature and the good and evil all human beings.

The old folk song and marching song "The Yellow Rose of Texas" is a song that, according to at least one researcher,  credits the actions of a very brave young lady who was kidnapped from her hotel in Texas by Santa Anna's forces as they marched toward an expected battle with Sam Houston's forces in the area of San Jacinto. As the legend goes, Texas spies alerted her and asked if she could find a way to delay Santa Anna for a few hours so they could prepare their attack- which she did- helping to gain independence for Texas.  The words "Yellow Rose", were originally taken from a black folk song in deference to the shade of her skin. Some take it as a slur for her mixed race origin- take note- that is not intended here.,  She was a hero to Texas and to many Americans who knew the origins of the song. Her name was Emily D.
