John Marshall, colored, who clai-
med to be l02 years old, died at
his home in the rear of 1853 South

was owned as Il slave by Jefferson
Davis, President of the Confede-
racy When Mr.. Davis was about
20 years age Marshall saved his
life. Me- Davis, who was of a da-
ring disposition, attempted t o
break "A colt, and as lie was about
to be dashed to death against a
gate Marshall came to his rescue,
aud saved his life. For this act
Marshall was offered his Freedom,
but refused it.
Some time later while Mr Davis
was at Richmond, cousin, who
disliked him, sold Marshall to one
OF the worst shareholders in the
State. He was taken to New Or
leans, where his experiences were.
of the most brutal character. He
escaped and took refuge in the fa-
nous Black Swamp, but was re-
captured and returned to New Or
leans for punishment. That pun
ishment left Marshall cripple
for life.
After the slaves were freed he
came North, and while walking on

wife. They had been separated
for ten years. MARSHALL lived in
