to make sum expresshen Nv their feelins
on the topiks that are now agitating the
Country.
The Corners felt called upon to express
in a public manner that it recognizes the
result NV the late war, and desires nuthin
SO much ez peace and quiet; that it fully
recognizes the fact that the niger (d--n
hin) is free, and is entitled to rites; and
that the Corners is trooly loyal to the
Governments NV the Yoonitid States.
1 called the meetfn-at the WESTINGHOUSE,
the scene nv so many demonstrations, and
committee auv ladies; headed by Mrs.
Baseom, prepared it for the sollum Okla
shen. 1t wuz drapeds with the flags nv the |
different Confedrit regiments wich wuz
raised in this seekshun, and that the prop |
er excitement mite be prodoosed, all the |
lreliks up the war .wuz brot out and dis |
played. Deekin Pogtam7s daWter, Mi
randy. he'd an each side nv the pulpit
desk the skulls Nv two Federal hirelins
wich her lover brought form Bull Run,
illoominatid with candles, wich wuz
ianked by the thigh bones NV several
other hirelins, which Captain McPelter
brot from sAndersonville. The drum wieh
Issaker Gavit beet at Fort Pillow wuz
I-draped with a battle-fiag Simon Pettus
kerried at the same victory, and other
mementoes NV the great struggle for the
liberty NV the South, wuz properly dis
played.
The pereession fled out of Bascom's--
the men dressed in confedrit-gray and the
women sheVin the cOloFs uV the COnfed
raeY, in hainatoOr, pinned to their left
breasts, headid by fife and drum under
the stars and bars, and playin ss1he
Bonny Bloc Flag.'' afa5sa'i
Nv course, made the openin speech.
Irepelled with skorn the accusashun that
the South he'd any idee that ther -wuz any
feeling nv dis1oyalty at the Corners. The
Corners wuz defeated in its struggle for
human rites and the perpetooashun' ny
Afrikin slavery, and havin bin defeetid,
accepted the sitooashen. The Corners,
especially; while 1t Good never forgit how
crooeTly it he'd bin disappinthd in notpre-
servin its hevin-boFn' rites, Wuz ez loyal
ez any similar place, and desired to live
in peace and harmony with ther brethren
NV the North, ''t-' q u
Deekin Pogram repelled with skorn the
akkusashufl that ther wuz any difference
between the two races at the Corners.
Here peace and quiet rains, and there he'd
? been no trouble. He knew NV 200 mig
> gers wich was very quiet, thanks to the
, shotguns of the intrepid Gavitt and the
3 shivaIrous McPelter. And if this wretch
ed race PERSONNEL to make any more
der and buckshoC in the Corners, and gal
liant men who never missed nigger's
head when they drawed bead onto it.
The nfgger had learned his place and he
[ Good ashoor his friends NV the North that
L he would never trouble nobody, and that
i ne could safely be left to the guidance nv
his material protector, his former master
And then he freedom NV eleck-
, shuns. He wanted EN- free, ez they wuz
+ afore the war, when the citizens nv the
Corners Good hang an ablishnist wich Of
fered to vote, without the feer NV inter-
Terrence NV -Fedrel bayonets. The South
! must be free.

myself, yuz then red and adoptid .r
