The Rich and Poor,

The time of which l write If one
was worth few thousands he was
called rich, but now he must have
millions, and that multiplied by a
large number. Surely the world
has gone cranky upon the subject
of wealth. If young man courts
a girl, the first thing she want to
know lis he rich," and upon that,
to great extent, depends her an
swer. She seldom asks is he NOR.
al, sober, industrious and reliable?
These points are overlook-is he
rich2 is all.
To he rich is a pleasant feeling;
I know that, I bad it once, and l
know what l am saying. When a
fellow has more money than he
knows what to do with I think he
is rich. / had that amount once,
therefore l write from experience;
and then 1 have been as poor as
Jobs turkey. So 1 have been all
along the line from end to end.
This leads me to say something of
where was raised, which was in
the mountains of East Tennessee,
the greatest country 1 ever saw,
for some things. We had more big
fat horses and cattle and hogs and
sheep, and occasionally goat and
mule; and as to men, me and
Andy johnson and Brownlow were
all from there, with some others,
The lands were fertile, so every.
thing for man and beast was abun.
dant, and we had but little need
for money. A few wolf scalps paid
our taxes and bought our coffee,
We made our own sugar and syrup,
and lived at home, the most indie
pendent people perhaps on earth.
