RECONSTRUCTION EVENTS
By C. w. Shaver.

Our people were still hopeful that
peace and quietude would reign
again, so that they might begin to
rebuild the country and regain some
of their losses. But when the con-
eress of part of these United States
met in Washington in December,
1865, there soon rose a dark, NUT
tering reconstruction cloud in the
country. Some abolitionist men,
Der of congress introduced a bill to
create what was called a Freed
mans Bureau, which soon passed
and became a law. 1t was claim
ed to be a bill in the interest of the
negro of the South, and the moss
back abolitionist members of con-
gress said it was for the protection
of the freedmen, the negros, in the
Rebel States. They said the freed
men could not get justice among
the rebels unless the government
saw after their interests.
So the Freedmen's Bureau law
passed, and the president appointed
a secretary or manager for the bu-
reau. Then there were Freedmen's
Sub-Bureaus established all through
the Confederate States, and an
agent appointed for each of these.
These agents claimed it was their
business to make contracts with the
white men and women for the
negro. If a white man wanted to
hire a negro to work for him, or
wanted to rent the negro some land,
or wanted to furnish the negro and
have him make a share crop, or if
the white woman wanted to hire a
negro woman or girl to do house
work or washing, he or she must
enter into contract with the bureau
agent. The agent seemed to have
exclusive control and management
of the negro's labor.
There were few negros left in
this country in the spring OF 1866
that formerly belonged to Judge
A. H. Mum, Judge Martin, the Wat
kins brothers, Henry Couch, the
widow Davidson, the Rev. Mordecai
Halliburton, William Johnson, Perry
West, the two widow Simpsons, who
lived down on Strawberry, and my
father. u. Douthitt, wanting q
government appointment, went to
work and soon succeeded in getting
a Freedmen's Sub-Bureau establish
ed at Evening Shade, and Of course
he was appointed agent. When he
got his laws, books, blanks, etc, he
opened his office ready for business,
and sent out word to former owners
of neeros and to the negros to come
in and enter into contract with him
for the negro's labor, Some compli-
ed with the request, and others refus-
ed to have anything further to do
with the neero-or the bureau agent
either. My father made contracts
for our negros to remain on the
farm and make crop that year,
and also contracted for a negro girl
to do housework for my mother.
William Johnson, Bill Johnson,
as he was called, who lived two
miles west Of Evening Shade, came
in to employ his neeros to make a
crop, Billy" was old, but very
spriehtly and quick in action, and
very quick of temper also, He and
the agent GOT into a dispute about
some part of the contract, and
Douthitt called Billy" a liar The
old man went for him, and was on
the agent before he could Get away
or scarcely move. He was making
the blood fly from Douthitl's face
and nose pretty fast, when some
men ran In from the street and
