Johnnie came into this world it was
a happy day for all the slaves on the
Mosby farm. Little Johnnie was Q
bright boy, and I became much at
tached to him. He worked with the
slaves on his fathers farm. l was
very happy on the farm, and l didn't
want to go away to the war, but they
said l must go to John, because he
had said that he didn't want any other
slave with him but me. So went. I
loved him, and was with him in all
his battles.
"When the war was over, Col. John
told me that was free and could go
and do as I pleased didn't want to
60 away from the Mosbys, but, taking
my family. left the farm and earned
my own living in towns and cities about
Virginia, getting much help from Col.
Mosby. ss g. Fs
HE is good man, and was great
fighter. He felt powerful bad when
the north won the fight, but he didn't
say much. The last time saw him
was about ten years ago. He sends me
check every once in awhile, and the
last letter got from him said: You
were always faithful to me, and I
shall always remember you for it. I
hope you are comfortable in your old
age"

dressed hurriedly to admit the visitor.
Seeing nothing but impenetrable dark

an old rattlesnake that had been on
the farm since his grandfather,st time.
On closer examination he discovered
that the snake was making sigls with
its tail toward field not far distant.
The farmer aroused his sons, went to
the spot indicated, and found that the
cattle had broken. down fence and
were playing havoc with the water
melon patch. The snake had alarmed
the household by striking its rattlers.
