Athens Banner: All OF his life Judge
Nicholson has res ded to himself, in a room
oTer which he was the sole master. While
this do nicile was not as neat, perhaps, as
many parlors, at the same time there was a
place for everything and everything was in
IFS place. For instance, the Judge always
keeps his shoes on the mantelpiecs, and his
kindhng wood concealed between the mat
tresses, a split-bottomed chair did service
as a wash sta I'd, and he kept his Sunday
clothes nicely hung up on the
floor In one corner Of the room But while
these arrangements were not such as many
ladies would endure, they had the advant-
age of convenience, and the darkest night
the owner could place his hand on any
article be needed. While Judge Nicholson
IS one Of the most charitable of men, and
his hand is ever open TO the poor and needy
he takes care Of his possessions. AS an
illustration, the year after the surrender
he bought a lot Of lightwood to kindle
his fire. It was stored away in his
wardrobe and bureau drawers, and only
| one piece at time taken out, that was hid
| in his bed. The judge has used from that
same load of pine now for over a quarter OF
a century, and he told us yesterday that he
/ has several sticks yet left-enough to last
/ him years to come, with economy. But
this is not all. He has a wbisk broom and
/ HAIR brush he has used constantly for over
