Ollvei Johnson?The College at Historic Tnscnlnm Invites Him to Preacb Baccalaureate Sermon. Greeneville (Tenn.) Democrat. Rev. Oliver Johnson, of Leslie, 8. C., a dtatlngnisbed minister of the Associate Reformed Presbyterian church, has been Invited tc preach the baccalaureate sermon lntbeCollege atTusculum at the commencement in Ma; next. Mr. Johnson's ancestors on hi* father's side were East Tennesseans. His father, Henry McEinoey Johnson, was born in Greene county and attended instruction at Tusculumin the early fifties nnder the Rev. Samuel W.. Doak, bnt later went to Abbeville couhty. 8i C., where he married and afterwards lived. Henry McKinney Johnson- was one of a family or thirteen children, eight sons and five daughters, reared by Henry and Livinla Johnson whose lives of over seventy years were spent in Greene and Carter counties and whose decendants are now to be found in Georgia, Arkansas, Iowa. North and South Carolina and the state of Washington. as well as In Tennessee. As seen by the above clipping from a Greenevllle (Tenn.) paper, the Kev. Oliver Johnson, by honoring the invitation extended, will be visiting the region where his father was born and grew to manhood and where many of his relatives, by blood and marriage, ntl 11 reside. An aunt, his father's oldest sister. Is still living not far from Tusoulum, and her family of ten children, four sons and six daughters, all grown to maturity. One of her daughters Is the mother of Prof. L. C. Haynes, of the college faculty at Tusculum, Prof. Haynes being the namesake of his grandfather, the distinguished orator and statesman, Lan don C. Haynes. who represented TennaHse? .In the Confederate States Senate throughout tne existence of that body, and who ht^I previously served the State as Its Attorney General. Many of the older people in Greene and Carter Counties, who remember Mr. Johnson's grandfather, still recall the jokes and witty sayings for which the old gentleman was famous among his neighbors. It is from that part of Tennessee that the inimitable "Bob" Taylor draws the scenes he so likes to disc ibe oftheoldtlme life in the mountains of East. Tennessee, he and his brother "AIT' having grown up in that vicinity, playmates with the younger of Mr. Johnson's aunts and unoles. The Taylor brothers are full of reminlsolence . -4 I * / *y.
