Witt's Father

Witt's father was the political Bull of the Woods.  He hailed from the town of Eldora, Alabama.  The population was around 1,000 during his youth.  Half white, half black.  At an early age he went on rides with his father and the KKK across the tracks.  He took over his father's diner in the 60's and became famous fan an ax handle he named Robert E. Lee.  This was his tool of choice that he used to keep blacks from sitting at the counter. 

Eventually he became mayor of Eldora.  After this he became the golden boy of the Democratic Party.
