"POOR CONRAD" WRITES I TO HIS FRIENDS.!' h CALLS BACK:CHAPTERS IN LOCAL j , HISTORY FORGOTTEN BY HOST OF [ j Z^_THE PRESENT GENERATION.! j | Editor County Record:? i J j I have met several of my old friends j 'lately and some of them asked me ! why I have not given them another, : letter, so I will give the readers of ^ j j your valuable paper a few lints. I called at Mr Stackley!s one nighty I some weeks ago to meet an old ac-' i 8 !quaintance,MrSam P Matthews,who ^ | has been absent from us for 35 years,: ' and while there I bad the pleasure i c i aT mA?.finrr oovoru 1 urrrapuKl^ nf I _ ?1U.??U6.V,V....V.VU. | the town, one of whom wanted to I | know why I had not given them an- ^ other letter. I made some sort of ex-; ' L 1 I cuse, but there are times when I do t 1 not feel like writing and again it is a ; ' i very busy season of the year. Money is llowing quite freely,the merchants; are crowding The Record with ad-; ^ vertisements and there is very little, time for the printer, as advertise-! , , . s ments mean money due for printers, | and there ie no money in letters, but j the editor puts them in when time i and space permit Well, I must mention that I at' r tended preaching at the Methodist * church Scnday, but being deaf,I did not hear any of the sermon. I was among the first to go in, seat myself and watch the others who came in to see if there were any,if only one, who listened to a sermon there over 50 v i years ago. I think there were about ^ 100 persons in the church Sunday. ^ If there was any one of those there t I could not say, unless it was d Mrs McBride Scott, who was at that t L time one of the prettiest young ladies ? in Williamsburg. Yes, Mr Manson t > Owens was the builder of the church i i aud I helped on several parts. I a ; built the tirst pulpit. I think Mr ^ I Ben Pendergrass had the church . i built at his expense and gave it to ^ i the members. He lived over Broad 1 Swamp about three miles from town, i 1 boarded at his house and don't! , think he charged Mr Owens for it. J r I walked to town in the morning and j ) back to Mr Peudergrass's at night. I; 51 was young aud felt good all the, 1 r time. J Mr Editor, those were good times; ' ' I k 1; people kuew one another then and , ; were neighborly. There were pleasant ; times at Uncle lien's then. There j was Mr Robert Fulton, who was married and living then, and there were Dr Sam Pendergrass, Dr Bob aud jolly Jehu Moore, all in tine _ j health. They were good singers. Mr , > j Fultou aud Dr Bob would play on >; the fiddle and tell funny jokes. 1 Those were fine men out aud out,and | , ! no matter where, or when they met: ( Conrad it was a handshake and kind words. How different with this generation! These young men pass and ' ' repass me apparently without any! ' notice. 1 often murmur to myself , ' when I pass these go-aheuds: "Your/ ^ father or uucle would lot have passed ( me by iD that style." Yes, they j ^ -1 would know me afar off, bnt times j ' are different. A person's purse is his j ~ size now, and my parsers very small j j } and I should not expect the young 1 people all to see me; only the old oues still kuow me. j ^ * Yes,I was at the chnrth Sunday. I ' could not help but notice that in the ^ ' 100 persons only two or three did not ' behave well. I thought what a pity ^ but I can look back and remember when I was young that I was a little a incorrect myself. Once I misbehaved s in Midway church, in Clarendon \ county, but Pete Epps was to blame ^ for that. Mr Win Burgess, who was v * one of the elders, was a few seats in f J front of Pete and myself. He was e 3 quiie au old man then and very bald. e ' Pete whispered to me how shiny Mr ^ Burgess's head was a?d that made E me laugh. But the charch is God's 1 house and we should bt afraid to act j 1 improperly in it. I remember hearing j * ? -L -1- I I Mr fearson reouse some uue m i Bethel church. While {teaching one ^ 1 Sunday he stopped speaking long r enough to draw the attention of the ; 3 congregation, looked calmly at those T ' who misbehaved and said: "This is 1 God's house." It was not meant for ? me, but I have always thought of 1 ^ those words when I see misbehavior i 3 in church. c But the worst thing in this conoec- i tion happeued a good many yeai s ago. It was told me by Mr Joe Hall, who jaid that while at a church one night j die minister was preaching quite loud- < !y about eome man who had done some t lorrible crime, or perhaps it was r Samson who took the 300 foxes and t f Ka foila oruru ftxrn frtnrtifV???p WUV ..V.J a vith a fire-brand between them and E et them loose in th<> Philistines' j :orn,or it was pulling the great tern- ^ )Je with the thousands of Philistines ^ m top down on himself?but, any- ^ low, there happened to be a drunken nan in the church who very quietly poke out and said: "Well, he play i?," meaning Samson. ^ Well, as I was speaking of the tj hurch and how I helped to build it, met MrOlin Epps before going in ^ own to-day. He said they were going ^ o build a new and larger church and I nay get the chance to help to build ^ haL here and able I will try ? a o do so. I was passing up the street this 0 fteruoon and as I passed Mrs McSride Scott's honse she was sitting n n the front porch and I went in and poke to her. The last time I had e] he chance has boeu it long time,over l( ifty years ago. How many have come >nd gone since then! q Veil, Mr Editor, I think this a oor letter, bnt those of my friends ^ rho know me will make allowances. PC. 5 Forced Into Exile.
