Barf, zarf. Sounds to me like he tried to do an honorable thing.

So as long as a pedophile pays child support in secret, then the pedophile has done something honorable?

Pedophile? A 22-year-old and a 16-year-old is not what one thinks of a typical pedophile relationship. Further, he did acknowledge her, he just didn't go public with it.

But what if he didn't? What recourse to support would a 16-year-old black maid have against the son of a promient wealthy man in Jim Crow S.C.?

Pedophile? Read the article, particucarly the paragraph below.

>>> Williams claims Thurmond fathered her when he was a 22-year-old living in his parents' home in Edgefield. Her mother, Carrie Butler, 16, had been working as a maid in the Thurmonds' home. <<<

You're a piece of work if you think Strom was a pedophile. Seventy-eight years ago, I doubt that his mating with a sixteen year old was even a crime of statutory rape.
