MISSOURY



Donald Lance has probably collected these, but various writers avoided

the problem altogether by using the spelling Mizzoury instead of Missouri.

In the Long Branch (NJ) Record of 6 July 1900, pg. 2, cols. 2-3, is a story

taken from the Home Journal (NY) called "Missoury Heleny," by Juliette M.

Babbitt. She probably meant to say Mizzoury.
