Anniston Star August 23, 1936
You have heard much about "An old spinning wheel in the parlor," but last' week 
down in Randolph County at the home of J. P. Morrison, I saw one on the back 
porch that is in perfect condition and is still in use. Mr. Morrison said he had 
gone to sleep many times when a child listening to the hum of this wheel while 
his mother was busy spinning thread that was to be used in making clothes for the 
family. When I asked him how old it was, he said he didn't know, but that it had 
been in the family ever since he could remember. Mr. Morrison is 61 years old and 
has lived at the same place for the last 42 years. He lives within a mile of 
where he was born and raised. "I was 23 years old before I was in a show and that 
was in Anniston," he said.
