A Faithful Negro.


A touching story comes to US from the
south illustrative of the close relations
which existed between many of the better
class of shareholders and the better class
of slaves. In 1868 Col. A. Campbell, the
owner of large sugar plantations in
Louisiana, found that it was impossible
to receive the money due to him from his
consignees in Nashville, the lines being
drawn closely between the sections.
Several other planters were in the same
position. Their debtors, they knew, were
ready and willing to pay, but there was
no safe way Of transmitting the money.
Any southern man who crossed the
blockade was liable to be hanged as a
spy.
Col. Campbell called his brother-credi-
tors together.
Il know of messenger whom I am
willing to trust" he said. "He is my old
body-servant, Sanford. You must Judge
for yourself whether you will do the
same"
Sanford was slave. The money in all
amounted to 100000. Years before the
old man, who was a Methodist minister,
had lectured his young master on the
wickedness of holding slaves.
Hes an original abolitionist," said
Col. Campbell, ''and as soon as he enters
Nashville he will be surrounded by hun
dreds of slaves flying to the north. Should
he steal the money and escape he would
be free and rich for life. But I Will trust
him to come back"
1t was desperate chance. But partly
because, perhaps, the money could not be
got in any other way the planters re-
solved to take the chance.
Ode fust oh de mont you can look for
me, Mars Aleck. If l don't come den
you may reckon on old Sanford as being
dead"
Sanford entered Nashville with crowds
of negro refugees, and for some days
could not succeed in gaining an interview
with his masters creditors. Finally he
cceeded, presented his letter, and re-
ceived the money, which he sewed up in
his collar.
AS the month passed, the other creditors
grew uneasy. Every day Col. Campbell
drove anxiously out the road by which
Sanford must come, but in vain.
On the last eve Of the month a tattered
limping figure came in sight.
"Havh's de money, Mars AIeck! Count
dem bills, sah!'' said the old man with
justifable pride.
This incident is true in every detail.
Wood County reporter. [volume] (Grand Rapids [i.e. Wisconsin Rapids], Wis.) 1857-1923, 1886-11-04

bat probably too anxious about her hus-
band and too unsettled as to her brood to
enjoy much of anything.
II should be well enough if I could only
Sleep" her husband writes her, ''but it is
the same old story, and sometimes l am
afraid it will wear me out"
Provided this wife cares truly for her
husband, such a paragraph, received per-
haps IN foreign land, must be the re-
verse Of exhilarating. But she can do
him no good when she is by his side. 1t
only amounts to two being kept awake
instead of one, tragic fact, which is
harder to bear than all. In the past the
very sound of her gu br thing at
night has proved an irritant of the worst
kind. 1t is no use to say, Let every
thing go and try to rest" That has been
tried too often. Such counsel is sure to
result in a reproach though probably
quite unintent1onal. Suppose were to
let things go at this crisis''-it is always
this crises" in such cases-'what would
become Of you and the girls and the boys,
and how could [ afford to buy the prop
erty adjoining ours, and which we mEst
have to make ours truly valuabIe?"
Neither the logic of common sense nor
the pleadings of love can have any effect
upon man so far gone as this. He must
be left to his idols and the awful and in
evitable day of physical reckoning, which
is as certain as that sunset must follow
sunrise.
when man begins to lie awake nights
he had better begin to stir about days,
said Abraham Lincoln to member of
his Cabinet who was complaining of in
somnia. "Walk, old fellow, walk, till old
Shanks won't carry you another STEP" he
added, ''and don't take the Civil War out
airing with you, either"
Through the avenue Of insomnia
man is pretty sure to travel to one Of
three houses" Charles Lamb once told
a friend-''to the mad house, the poor
house, or the house of refuge. If he
passes these he will bring up in hospi-
tai, public or private; and this place,
to my mind, is almost as bad as the
Others
