] We surely have great deal to be
I thankful for this weak, a* we have
| succeeded in getting our tobacco
■crop all housed and cured even if
(we did have to rant a barn a m:io
| from home, put in flues, detour
j through the woods, to get there on
1 account of the highway being under |
corfctrucUon. and then buy wood,1
a net sticks in order to save tha cron j
We never before had so much trou
ble or expense with a tobacco cro>.
and feel relieved that we were for
tunate enough to save it, especially
j since seeing so very much on the
I highways, since then, that has been
I ruined because of failure to get helo
| to save the crop. If prices now *nU
* Just be what they should, or at
least be sufficient to repay the far
mers for the hard work, and extri
expense they have been put to in
order to save the crop, all will I e
well and good, and the farmer wi!l
be wearing a different look from the
one which low prices right .ow
would produce.
While our esteemed friend Pet
Smith was visiting at Oak-Glen, w;
had the pleasure of attending thr
Union meeting at Chapel Primitiva
Baptist church, near here, wher.-«
there was a two days meeting, with
dinner on the grounds both days, but
we only were there on Sundav.
and there was an elgant dinner
barbecue and everything that could
tempt any appetite. Both of us re
called the day we attended one of
the biggest associatiins of the church
at the same place, when there wvs
an Immense throng, back in the
norse and buggy days of the iong
ago, while we were at home from
the University of Virginia, in 188V
if we are not mistaken. At any nte
it was before we graduated in medi
cine. and just why we so well re
member the day, was because of tnc
fact that both of us were dressed In
double breasted Prince Albert coals
with striped pants, and wearing h'ph
silk hats, as they are now called, but
at that time were known as "beav
ers”. That one was our first and
only silk hat, and we do not thin':
we have ever worn one since. We
showed friend Pat a picture taken,
with the hat on, just as we wore it
that day, when he and myself were
sporting our “Jim Swingers” ano
beavers, and attracted attention.
Our highly esteemed and beloved
friend Pet Smith, who was here U>t
week, and delighted our home and
hearts with his presence, went ‘o
Kin3ton Wednesday morning am
spent a day and night at the home
[of Mr. and Mrs. Phil Crawford. Sr.
returning to Oak-Glen Thursday
morning, accompanied by Mr. and
Mrs Crawford, and wife any myself
joined them and went to Wilson,
where all had been invited to dinner
I in honor of Mr. Smith, at the home
of Mrs. E. A. Darden, in that most
beautiful little city. We arrived
there safely and found a most gri
cious welcome from our hostess, at
her beautiful and attractive homi,
where real old time Southern hos
pitality was as freely and gladly dis
pensed as the air we breathed. Bat
how couid it have been otherwise,
when Mrs. Darden’s forebears we -9
noted for just such delightfully
pleasant occasions, as far back as w 1
can remember, and she has simply]
inherited the knack of knowing ju;i
how to make visitors enjoy the de
iightful pleasures which abound -31
her home. She is the daughter cl
te late Sheriff Luby and Salite Ha.
per, of Greene county, and was bor'
and raised near the beautiful lit'-1*
town of Snow Hill, which nest'cl
among the lovely little hills on thi
banks of Contentnea Creek, whet,
nature has done so much to beau
tify the location, as anywhere we
have ever seen Her family an.l
ours are very closely connected, and
before and right after the civil war
there was no two families anywhere
that visited each other more than
did these two. But those now living
of the two families, have rarely see 1
each other, in many years past. M-s.
Darden's maternal grand mother,
Annie Crawford Hooks, and our
paternal grand father, Jobs C
Crawford, were brother and sis'e \
and in our childhood, and young
manhood, there was frequent vls't
ing among the two families, they
being held together by the strong
est ties of kindred and love.
After an elgant dinner at Mp.
Dardens, we had the pleasure of
seeing her niece and daughter, Mrs.
Hunter Flemming, and Miss Ha.*
riett, as we had never before had
the pleasure of meeting them, bo*
well remember Mrs. Flemming's
mother, whom we knew ss "HAtie
Harper”, and have not seen her
since six was grown. W« alio had
the pleasure of seeing our great
niece, and her little girl, Mrs. Long
est, who before her marriage wai
Miss Elizabeth Edmundson. daugh
ter of Mr. and Mrs. Tom Edmund*
son ol Stantonsburg, Wc remained
at that delightfully pleasant home
till late afternoon, and then wendod
our way homeward, with the £lad
remembrance of one of the most
pleasant visits we had ever beer
permitted to enjoy, and this with
the association of our dear frieni
from Alabama, gives us still more to
be thankful for, as the shadows
lengthen, and life's evening sunset
approaching, reminds us every day,
and every hour, that we soon shat,
have lain druvn our burden here,
and gone hence to try the realities
of the unknown beyond. Our o<d
friend's visit to our home will ever
be remembered as one of the bright
est cases, in the desert of our lif \
refreshing us with Its delightful as
sociations, and hallowed remini;
ceases, and that visit to Wilson, to
the home of friend and kindred -
gladdened our hearts with its wa-m
welcome and most gracious hospi
tality. and threw around us its hi’o
ol enjoyment, which enhanced that
of previous week at our home, and
added still more to the memory Lf
heart and souls enjoyments whici
have come to us In our declining
years, and bid us joy and happiness
which we didn’t know was in store
I for us a short time ago. For all of
which we are most thankful, and
the memory of the past two weeks
will live with us as long as life er»
dures, and comfort and cheer us as
we wend our way toward life's even
ing sunset, and await the dawn .of
eternal morning just beyond.
