PHOTO -- Natchez Police Officers, November 1963
posted E-mail Story E-mail Story | Print Story Print Story 
In November 1963, the three highest-ranking members of the Natchez Police Department were photographed. They included, from left, investigators Frank Rickard and Charles Bahin, and Police Chief J.T. Robinson. All three men, now dead, were involved in the numerous investigations relating to the Ku Klux Klan. In a 1999 book on Ferriday native Jimmy Swaggart by Anne Row Seaman, Capt. Rickard told the author that members of the militant Klan-based Silver Dollar Group "were violent, nothing but trash." He also linked the death of Ferriday shoe shop owner Frank Morris to the Silver Dollar Group. These Klansmen were believed responsible for the deaths of Frank Morris and Wharlest Jackson, the attack on George Metcalfe and possibly the disappearance of Joseph "JoeEd" Edwards.
