→Dodd recalls his friend Clements
Dodd recalled on a road trip that he, Clements, and others took to Winnsboro in Franklin Parish south of Monroe. Dodd said that Clements was "lecturing us on the evil effects of drinking (we had drunk a beer) and the dangers of fooling around with loose women, particularly during political campaigns. He used his long and successful career in politics free off drinking, womanizing, [[gambling]], and other sins, as he called them, to emphasize the value of abstinence, which he equated with success."<ref name=bdodd/>
