4 Frisky Old Maid OF 90 and an Adnirer
lH sas Aged 1O4. . t,. stxsg 4


Through the kindness Of our postmaster
at this place read your article with
respect to ss4Old Father Keenan, a venera-
ted and venerable priest Of the Catholic
Church. Let me cite to you another char
acter, venerable miss, whom Father Ke-
nan should have a filtration with. Miss
Sylla Pool was born in the county Of New
Kent, and State of Virginia, on the I'd day
Of June, A. d. 1777, and consequently is
9s years old. To-day she walked from her
beautiful home in Sheffield to Covington, d
distance of some four miles, saying, that rs
it was leap year, y she would show the
boys that she was yet on haIa.s Infthei
year 1907 she was great belle, and was
engaged to the celebrated DR.. Gather, who
fought a duel at Wyatt. Court House with
Addison Cannon about the matter. aAddi-
son Cannon was a great bea,asin his, time,
and good shot. The result was that DR.,
.Gaither was wounded, since which time
Miss Sylla has never had more than a
dream of marriage. She came to this
county with her parental ancestor in 1919,
and many old men here remember the
beauty of Miss Sylla, even though she was
then an "o old maid" viii give you this
as her own autobiography, Her statement
and the old Bible and the Responsibility Of
ths good old maid is authority enough.
She counts her conquests. by the score
prominent among whom are Addison Cam
non, Major sockwell, Hon. Reuben Cook,
of Wyatt; Dr. Gather, General Hardy
Woolford, and DIR. Bates. and delights to
tell The girls how the Ladies managed the
men in her day. handed her your article
about 50 Father Kenan. :" and sfe said af
ter reading III mithout glasses, that if she
lived she would hunt for him i'll Phiiadel-
hia in June and ask him to dance an old
oned Centennial reel with her. tell
you, Mr. Editor, Miss syIla Pool is no small
fish. HAWKINS.
