STORY OF EMANCIPATION
'Humor, Pathos and Tragedy-Are
' Woven " Into Narrative Vritten
v by One Who Was Born as Serf.
s i By Robert W. Osbora -
'Not niiur years Boat elapse before, the laet
of the living who can- remember. - and who partici
pated in, the etimng Civil wax period will p-
on.' Of hetoricaT interest and throwing liffht on
the old alive dart is the following story by a
colored . janitor, lira. Maggie Palmer, commonly
known i aa ."Old Annuo" in Houston.- Texas,
written' for Mias France L. Barnes, instructor
in Jdnglfem for many ;r at thc'Kentoa acbool
fat Portland. Old Auntie wrote the "ntemoirs"
t the request of Miss. Bamer when the latter
iii an exchange teacher in Houston' from Port
land during the year a11-t8. -Tno story.
id. from rU insight into th. -.events , of . the
-time, ia remarkable fox its hnraor and retisious
sentiment.. The fact that it is well written, proves
, the eagerness with which the negro "mammy"
nSust hare applied herself in those achoot daya
. She so humorously describes. -Auntie waa bom
to 1834- Her story fe published a she
wrote JM,-?a . -
f: A very kind lady wants a sketch of
jny life. What could I say ot Interest
to be even" read by her?'r Yet, as my
mind wanders back it brings afresh the
scenes and incident of my youth even
the little hut where I first saw the light
-of day many, many years ago, and the
"big house where Ole Missus and all the
--white folks lived.' Mother being house
'-woman. I was born and brought, up at
'the Big House and thus had the advan
tage of the -other little slaves who were
'raised, down at the "nigger quarters.
H "Be they ever so humble, yet how deaf
Ho my eart"ar the scenes of my-childhood.":
How often have I gone down
that old shady lane to the little school
jhouse to take young Missus her lunch,
. and while she would enjoy eating it 1
' i j tnn all the words on any
craps of books I might happen to find
ion the school grounds. Miss Mary would
dinner and I often
wonder why biscuits and sausage do. not ,
eat as sweet and juicy as in those good I
-old days. - Just about this period in my
j-jife word came from a Tankee general
by the, name of Christler to let all the
'colored -people know that they were
free. .(Old Auntie said that negroes con
tused Christler with the second coming
:tt Christ)
tANKEES MAKE A CALL
J. The morning after hearing this good
news, hearing a peculiar noise, I went
'to the do r and looked out to see what
i-was the trouble- Good heavens ! I ran
fright into a company of Yankees. I
'never saw men get around, so fast in all
'my born days as they did. They seemed
;to pour right down out of the sky. They
;ran up and down the trees like squirrels.
AAnd it was goodbye to all those good
.old sausage meat and biscuits, tor they
jjijst did leave the ground for us to stand
on and water in the well everything
lse. went when they did. They even
itook Old Master as far, as the ford, one
fmile ott. to kill him. To give him a
chance, for life, they gave him a very
t-hard language to read. If he failed to
'do so they swore they would kill him.
but he read it and thus saved his lire.
I Well do I remember that cold April
morning when he came slipping back
"through the woods, clad only in his socks
fritnd underwear. Tnere waa no gooa not
Kffa.tA. c-i him. so mother made' him
8ome sage tea.
i COLORED FOLK I3T t XL AT E Y AB.D v
U Next i year my folks moved off to
themselves to try and paddle their own
i ? canoe.- traveling all the way from Ala-
fbama to South- Carolina in a one-horse
rviwn. i We camped one night right in
the .middle of a battlefield, with graves
fxt dead men as far. as you could see.
PMost of our band of pilgrims slept by a
? great log heap, fire that night, but I
' f crept up in the "back of the wagon and
,4 tried to watch the ghosts with one eye
' t -while I slept wnn me otner.
' Well. I'll never forget that night if I
I live hundred years. The next morning
a freight train came through a wood not
5 very far off and as I had never seen one
Lthejr could not convince me that it would
.Knot run over me though more than , a
mll away. I was just as green as a
; 1 gourd !
After we got located,, we were all go
:Jlng to work one day except a little
brother,' who was left at home to look
: after things and string beans for dinner.
'We came in from work tired and hungry
: ronly to find that little brother , had bor-
: rowed, a needle -and thread and had
. i strung- the beans on it and hung them
I up on a naiL
J. SCHOOL DAYS
i'- The next day mother called us to her
; and said, "Chillun. I'm gwine to send
yon all to school jes' like white Chilian.
- v My. how this did fiU my heart with
? Joy! I just cried for gladness.. This
' t was the one hope of my life. Mother told
r us about many great white ladies and
gentlemen who got all their greatness
, through book-learning.
Well do I remember the first day I
V attended a real school, back in 1866. I
went in and sat near the door, for I
'.'was somewhat afraid of school, and
..should anything unusual happen I in
, tended to run right out the door. .This
i was not necessary, however. for the
d teacher was a white lady from Massa
chusetts, and very kind. The thing I
? did not like was that she did not let me
: t have a lot of books -like my young mis
tress had at the yellow school house
, back in Alabama. ' Instead of books she
. gave me a large a-b-c card. I went
hone that evening and after hunting
i sne .BeignDornooa over succeeaea in col-
i, locting quite a number of books and went
rinarching- into school with them -next
morning. My teacher told me -that
' inust first learn how to spell and then
; she would let me get some books.
,GBOWS SHOE LEATHER AND HALTS
' ; I ; also' noticed that -the glrlaHSad ' on
nice high' top shoes while I wore only
brogans, sa I had to think how to remedy
this shortness of ! shoe leather. I got a
" ! . f pair of old high! top shoes and cut the
' . . tops off and sewed .them f as neatly as
" I oould onto, my - brogans .- Well, I wore
j them just one day, and the children did
v the rest..- ,
' - Some of the girls hair was much
' j 1 longer than mine. I did not like-this.
i '! Miss Mary, I remembered, always wore
t long curls away down, her back, and now
I I saw many of my schoolmates doing
I, i the same thing. I got busy and pieced
i mine with a piece ot horsehair and had
a nice ' long braid hanging way - down
I my back. I had to . stay home -a- few
I days after that hair fixing or break up
: j, the school, for just to look at little Mg
i ' gie made teacher and all laugh.

i Soon I commenced to learn some sense
I and to see that this Jennie Wren imi-
tation of a canary would never profit me
i f anything, but that getting my lessons

so-1 just got down' to business.- It was
not many months before I had iron the
"Pilgrim's Progress" for standing at the
head -of .the class in spelling for three
months, and the way I could do my sums
and commit poetry my teacher said was
