Anniston Star May 19, 1935
An old pot that is made of grayish blue stone is owned by J T. Lovvorn of near 
Delta in Clay County and was the property of Chief Fishead, a Creek Indian who in 
was killed in some kind of sport game. This old Indian chief is buried on the 
Huel Haynes farm that joins the farm Mr. Lovvorn lives on and is said to have 
been very popular with the pioneers in his day. This pot is oval shaped and looks 
like an egg cut in half. It has a capacity of three quarts and is as heavy as 
iron, weighing between 30 and 35 pounds. It does not have legs like pots of 
today. Mr. Loworn has carried it to the museum here in Anniston. and said, in the 
near future it would be put on display, giving those who are interested a chance 
to see it.
