I am glad they did it.
/ knew Ben many years in
Kemper, and always found him
in his proper place at the right
time. lie was sober, Industrious,
honest, and trustworthy. lie
came up to the full measure Of
good citizenship. He owned a
good farm on Blackwater, in
Kemper county and did well on
it by staying by it all the time,
and attending to his own bust
ness, and not meddling with his
neighbors. He was highly es
teemed by all his neighbors,
white and oolored. His credit
was good everywhere he was
known. lie made debts like
many other oolorcd persons, but
he paid them like Ben.
