whispered among her admirers that in
bestowing her hand she should give
her heart, the hand was too small. To
be surrounded by a cortege of friends
was to het; the zenith of happiness.
Simple in dress, exquisite in manner,
she held the reins of society in her
shapely hands. To know her was to
Icve her. Men were like courtiers,
they reverenced the fair sex—placed
them on pedestals and in this way ac
knowledge their supremacy.
Our amusements were diversified.
Dancing in the long winter evenings,
interspersed with whist, backgammon
and cribbage. Around the village—
Barnw’ell—were lovely bridle paths.
Horseback riding was never tired of.
Miles and miles of forest, often hedg
ed in by rail fencing, covered with yel
low jasmine, honeysuckle and briar
roses and running brooks. The gal
lants would stop where the cool spring
bubbled up and improvise an oak leaf
for my lady’s cup.. As they galloped
on one could hear mocking birds in
the distance “singing their songs
without words.” Apple and peach or
chards awaited, ready to dispense
their sweetness to the passing strang
ers.
Hagood’s Mill was quite a resort in
“the golden summer time.’’ Boats
were always ready for fishing and gath
ering pend lilies. There we sent to
grind our corn and wheat. And while
waitiftjjf w for their carts, wagons and
buggies many of the darkiee would
catch fish and take them home for
supper as a surprise to their missus.
Such an ideal spot for picnics and bar
becues it was- Bream, perch and
trout were plentiful and the crowning
event was early breakfast at Hagood’s
Mill—hot fried fish, corn muffins, cof
fee—food fit for a king. A short drive
it was with frisky horses. The fisher
men had everything in readiness^’ben
we ’ anflVed. Those were days of
abundance and carefree existence.
Kate Tobin had her share in all, a
tr
most happy girlhood. One pleasure
routed another. In the boats were
only two Music on the water was
seft and low. How Kate gloried in it.
We sangs songs suitable for the oc
casion, among which were: “Sailing,”
“Gum Tree Canoe,” “Love Will Light
His Tapers Brighter,” “Breathe Not a
Word of Our Love,” “Love Will Fool
You, Love Will Rule You.” The moon
would ^ive us inspiration. Before the
wee small hours we would gallop back
to the village on our faithful steeds,
and think of future moonlight trips to
Hagood’s Mill.
Kat'e was a dainty picture on horse
back with a green marine riding habit
fitting perfectly, gloves, cap and laced
riding boots and an ivory handled rid-,
ing whip; everything matched, a per
fect setting. The horse’s coat was like
brown satin.
