Anniston Star May 3, 1936
J.M. Gaston, who lives Route 1, Heflin in Randolph County, has two shirts that 
are over 30 years old made of old hickory shirting. These shirts were made for 
his grandfather who has been dead for 25 years. They were given to him this 
spring by his aunt, Mrs. Lena Lee, who made them for his grandfather. Mr. Gaston 
wears one of these shirts every day when working and I will say they are as 
strong as any new shirt on the market today. Mr. Gaston's father, S. B. Gaston is 
in his eighty-first year and has the same initials as his grandfather. Mrs. 
Gaston has a bookcase that belonged to her great grandfather, and although she 
does not have a record of the age, she said she was sure it is much over a 
hundred years old.
