Buford, a brave and faithful Confederate veteran of! the "thin gray line," pleading to the | legislature for a pension for "the ne-l gro body servant who went to the war and in camp and frequently un-| der fire was loyal to his master." i Truly there is a few of these old j body servants left?"a faithful, fee-j ble, black line," now old and help- j less. These old servants are loyal to i : their whiite friends, and to help them j would be an act of crowning grati-! tude for South Carolinians who led i f the plan and wrought so nobly in the j Civil War, to reach back a hand of; ! help not only to the body servants in j the war, but to these grand old!
