MONUMENT TO THE EX-SLAVE.
The Chatham Record, of Pittsboro,

The Chatham Record, of Pittsboro,
of last week says;
People at the North cannot un-
derstand or appreciate the kindly
feeling that used to exist between
the master and the slave in the South
before our slaves were emancipated,
and the kindley feeling that still ex-
lists between the survivors. This
kindly feeling is forcibly illustrated
by the determination of the old Con-
federate soldiers to erect a monu-
ment to the memory of the former
slave of the South.
''At the Confederate reunion, held
two years ago at Birmingham, a res
olution was adopted to erect such a
monument, and, on last Saturday,
the official order was issued from the
headquarters of the United Con-
federate Veterans appealing for con-
tributions for the proposed monu-
ment. Such a monument was erect
ed in South Carolina by private sub
scription some years ago.
Such action must greatly surprise
our Northern brethren who be-
lieve all such libels on the South as
"Uncle Toms Cabin" and that the
Southern slave owners were cruel
monsters -
