TWO MISTAKES.
+
By Savoyard.
Published by Kequest.
In some remarks of mine upon the
recent adjudication of the supreme
court touching the 15th amendment,
I expressed chagrin because of the
fact that th Southern people had
reared no shaft to commemorate the
noble loyalty to master and mistress
displayed i>y tne old black mummy
and uncle (luring the war ot* 1801G5
that culminated in the emancipatino
of the bondsman and tlie
abolition of African slavery.
It appears that I was wrong in my
statement. A gentleman from South
Carolina, a Mr. inches, reminds the
readers of The Columbia State that
at Fort Mill. S. C.. there is a monument
erected in Confederate park to
the former negro slaves of the South,
and on one of its sides is the follow
ing inscription:
"1800-1865.
"The faithful slaves who. loyal to
a sacred trust, toiled for the s tpport
of the armj with matchless devotion
and with sterling fidelity guarded
our defenseless homes, wotucti
and children during the struggle for
the principles of our Confederate
States ol America."
?
Capt. S. E. White reared this shaft
to the honor of the negro slaves who
were so devoted to the whites of the
South in the terrible conflict of
1861-65. Captain White does himself
as much honor as his tribute
pays to the slave. Such a man must
nave a noble heart and a lofty mind
?all honor to him. 1 thank Mr.
Dyches for calling my attention to
this patriotic deed of a son of South
Carolina.
But 1 want something more than
that. 1 want a monument reared to
the loyal old slave by the entire
Southern people. 1 want to have the
pleasure of contributing my little
mite to the shaft. 1 want money
enough collected to enlist the greatest
living artist and challenge him to
make of it a masterpiece. I want it
to be a grand affair to express the
love and the gratitude of as noble a
people, as proud a race, as the wor'd
ever saw to their old servitors.
It can be done and our people will
never miss the money. All thai is
required is for some capable, energetic
women to take it in hand #n<t
push it to success.
*
It seems that recently I fell int.*
another error, as the following leter
indicates:
"Dear Savoyard: You do North
Carolina an irreparable injustice
to claim Ty Cobb as the son of
Georgia. As you are a Southern
man yourself, you ought to knowbetter.
Those of us who read your
rilliant editorials?and have read
them so long as to hesitate to recall
the first ones ?are disappointed to
see a man who has been correct for
half a century erring In the vital statistics
affecting the reputation and
civic crown of a whole commonwealth
like North Carolina.
"If my memory serve me correctly.

since Washington, was horn in t'lierokee

Is North Carolina going to swipe ,
nil the glories? It would seem so. ,
And a grand old state it is.
* * *
North Carolina claims that Maj.
C.en. Andy Jackson was her son. and (
it may be so. though Old Hickory ^
himself and South Carolina horse! i
were of different opinion. I
Then North Carolina anticipated
Thomas Jefferson and made a declaration
of American independence
some time before July t. 1 77 ?. There
are some Virginians who dispute
this claim

as authentic. I
What a grand old state she is
that North Carolina?"First at llethel,
farthest at Gettysburg, and last
at Appomattox!" Which is to say B
that North Carolina was the first to
go In, went farthest when she got in. *
and was the last to fire a shot in that j
awful struggle on Virginia soil ' '

Live Stock Was Cheap in 1194.
p The increased cost of living, though
the increase is by no means so great
" as we might have expected, lends an
1 interest to a volume just issued by
s the Pipe Roll society. From the ins
troduction one gathers an idea of
1 prices in 1194. Certain land was to
1 be stocked and a price for each class
1 of stock was fixed. Oxen figure at
Pour shillings, cows a shilling less.
Farm horses were also four shillings
a nead, pigs were a shilling, and aheep
" stood at sixpence. Incidentally the
