Some time G an Alabama lady
kindly undertook to advise one of
her cOlored maids as to certain
rules of propriety that always should
be. observed by young women to
whom attentions are paid by young
gentlemen friends. One evening
the lady wondering whether her
seeds of advice had fallen upon
rocky ground, stationed herself in
a rocker near the kitchen door,
where she was entertained by the
following dialogue:
"Ah say, Mary, would yo' jess
soon-"
look yere, Jim Jackson, don yo'
git fresh wifi me! Nah names Miss
Smith-not Mary. All don low only
NAH best an most pa'tic'lar friends

"Ah beg yo' pahdon. Miss Smith.
