On this occasion he said -. thb rural folk fattened ft beef, sheep or hog for the occasion carrying them to Salisbury a1 ready dresa: ed and ready to barbecue by the: wagon load, that the trenches were dug . one fourth of a mile long and that bark and jSrepared wood coal were ued to do the cooking, which was begun early enough to have it all thoroughly done in time for the big nood meal. This was sliced with larg? knives and spread on long tables located in the grove about Cham bers cotton mill, afterwards used as the . Confederate prison pen People from all parts of the county and , surrounding counties were present in large numbers and after all had eaten to. their satisfaction the -slave! were invited to help themselves, of which there was an abunf dance for them. .There was a big parade miles in length, in cluding military and jwlitical or- ganizations. A uaoarrus com pany had a long hue of log cabins drawn on wagons with four horses to each. On the wagon were women and children who were abundantly supplied with American flags and banners This was during the campaign when Wm. H. Harrison was the Whig candidate for president, and Bell .andEverette were big o ponets . Some of the bgnnefa vrippicanoo and Harrison top." Capts Riley and Ramsay were there with the Rowan artillery and their two field pieces, as was also Capt McNeely and the Salisbury military company pf which, Mr. Casper was a mem ber, as were also the following who yet survive: E B Neave of Salisbury, W A Weant of Mocks ville, C. Peeler of Rockwell, Jer ry Eddleman of the Edenezer neighborhood, Louis Hoi shop ser who lives just outside of the southern limits of Salisbury, one in Concord and perhaps others who cannot be recalled just now. At night there were fire works, tar barrels and large balls of waste saturated with oil. Mr Casper says the provisions consumed on this occasion, at present prices, would cost some eight or ten thousand dollars. Among the interesting features was the placing of barrels of ap ple and poach brandy on the street corners with spiggots and cups handy which was free to all. The fautastics was a striking feature of the parade. This was a a m composed or men dressed in long-tailed coats and large breeches made of calico, and wearing tall, pointed hats. Tbey brought into service all the old poor horses, worn out buggies and carts that could be found, attached to which were cow bells and other things that would help make a noise The jollification was an all-day and an all night affair, when our people, - both town and country, were united and good-will, hospitality and bountiful generosity was over flowing.
