THEY LOVED THE NEGRO.
Their Former Slave, Who IL
Wrongly Accused.

Gen. Barnum, of Abbeville, s. c., had
. body servant before the war who aped
him in everything. Peter SO loved his
master that he grew to talk like him.
act like him and almost look like him.
He lives to-day, the heart Of hospitality,
the soul Of honor. One Sunday two
white men drove up to the door Of his
cabin and asked if he had any liquor in
the house. He said he had about .
quart. They offered to buy. He re-
fused to sell, but, just as his old master
would have done, invited them to havea
drink. Having drunk they handed him
q half dollar. OF course, like his mas
ter, he declined the coin. The scoun-
drels went to town and swore out com
plant that he was violating the dispen-
sary laws.
/ happened to be in Greenville the
other day when the trial took place, and
saw revelation Peters counsel was
Gen. Barnum's son, adjutant general Of
the state under Gov. John Gary Evans,
and the chief witness for the defense
was the general himself, who had come
over from Abbeville, distant about 100
miles, to say word for his former slave.
The general took the stand and his son
said:
what is your name?"
81 am Gen. Barnum, sir" .
"Where do you reside?''
'@In Abbeville, sir"
"How long have you known the de-
fendant?"
"Sixty-1ve years, sir"
" '+What is his reputation?" \
"As good as any mans in this court
room, SIR ,..
'Would you trust him3'' ....
Trust Peter? Why, I'd trust him
With my life, my honor!"
The jury didn't leave their seats.
The scene 'sorter touched me up." !
met young Barnum, and asked If he re-
ceived anything for his services. "Ao-
cept 2 fee from .Peter?" be said, IN
amazement. ''Why,, sir, ia o soon
think Of charging my father" : -
