Sundown town

edit

The inclusion of the town in the category Sundown towns in Tennessee was challenged at the Help Desk here. The ip listed a newspaper reference which I strongly suspect refers to the same community of African Americans described in the 1878 Evening Star story used as a source in this article. I note that the Evening Star article is a second-hand account, and it is perfectly consistent with an attack on the neighboring African American enclave rather than their being forced from Celina. Since I could find no other reference to Celina as a sundown town I removed the category. I did not remove the description of the attack of the neighborhood, and have no problem with restoring the category if it can be sourced.
