It’s all shelter or shade until Octo- ber now. That would be OK, I suppose. There are worse ways to spend an outdoor hour Slim Smith than sitting under the shade of a tree as the heat shimmers across the landscape or escaping to its shelter as a shower rushes in to nourish the thirsty earth. But, then, there is the matter of the lawn. It has to be mowed, especially after a good rain. It’s a chore to a lot of folks, who happily pay someone to perform this task. But I’ve always liked to mow the lawn, one of the few chores that seems to me more of a THE NATION diversion than a job. It’s hard to explain.

The reports to NCSO claimed the two inmates were in the area of Fox Chase Road off Highway 388, according to Sher- iff Terry Grassaree. But Grassaree said none of the reports have been verified. Those reports stopped coming, he added, by late afternoon. “The calls started com- ing in about maybe 4:30 this morning,” Grassaree said Wednesday. “They’re still coming in. We’re trying to check out the ones that come in and make sure. Because you never know, the very one you overlook might be the ... right one.” Deputies have contact- ed the U.S. Marshals Ser- vice, sheriff’s offices in surrounding counties and other area law enforcement agencies. Officers with the U.S. Marshals Task Force are on standby waiting for verification that Rowe and Dubose are actually there. The majority of the reports said the convicts were on the side of the road by a parked SUV. Some of the reports said they were looking under the vehicle’s hood. Authorities have not discovered any connection that either Rowe or Dubose has to Noxubee County or Mississippi.
