Aunt Nellie strayhorn's tooth Birthday

Aunt Nellie Strayhorn cele-
brated her Tooth birthday last
Sunday at her home on the Uni
versity Lake road. Her relatives
and friends gathered to eat ice
cream and to present her with a
beautiful birthday cake in
scribed with the following words
written in pink icing: Happy
Birthday Aunt Nellie, 100
Years."
Aunt Nellie well remembers
the ante-bellum South and the
days when she was a slave be-
longing to Wesley Atwater and
his wife Julie. She was born on
the Atwater farm 6 miles from
Chapel Hill on the Hillsboro road
and was named for various
members of her masters family.
Her full name is Nellie Franciss
Margaret Caroline Olivia Nc
Dade Olum Atwater Strayhorn.
Her early life consisted chiefly
of hard work. She plowed,
chopped wood, carried water
from the well, MIXED cows, and
waited on her mistress, Miss
Julie, as she called Mrs. Atwater.
"She would call me to her
room to comb her hair and
scratch her head" Aunt Nellie
said.
When she MIXED the cows in
the chill of early morning Nellie
would warm her bare feet by
rousing the cattle from where
they had lain all night and
squatting in the warm spot made
by their bodies.
When the war came Mr.. At
water went away to fight, but
Nellie and her mother stayed on
with their mistress till the Sur
render. They were out working
in the fields when the Yankees
came and asked Nellie's mother
if she knew she was free. "No,
sir" she said. Eve fought to
free you," they told her.
Soon afterwards Nellie and
her mother moved 10 the Wilson
The Chapel Hill weekly., 1950-07-14

Strowd farm to live with her
father, who had been a slave of
the Strowds. She worked for
Lawyer Mason several years for
SIS a month. Then she married
Tony Strayhorn, self-taught
young preacher who was as
sistant pastor of the Rock Hill
Baptist church, which had been
organized right after the war.
The couple had two children,
q boy and a girl. While the chill
dren were quite young the fam
lily moved to the house in which
Aunt Nellie still lives. Her hus-
band and children are dead, but
two of her grandchildren, Fred
Barbee and Mrs. Ruth Hogan,
and her great-granddaughter,
Dolores Hogan, live with her.
She has nine other grandchil-
dren and ten other great-grand-
children.
Aunt Nellie says she doesn't
know for sure why she has lived
50 long. But her daughter-in-
law, Mrs. Maggie Atkins, Is GER
tain. She says, She's lived q
hundred years because she's al
ways been a good woman. She
is a strong church woman and
has done a lot for the Lord"

Janaboree

Jamboree at Valley Forge by Palmer's Scoutmaster Victo Alfsen.
 Harry, who will be 14 years old next Sept. 10, has never been Outside. He is the oldest son of MT. and Mrs. Harry Campbell, who were original colonists, ar irving here in May, 1885.
 Harry's trip will take him to many national parks, to Chicago and New York, to Washington, D. C., and to many historic spots in the United States before he returns to Alaska late next month.
 He isn't particularly excited about any one part of the trip 'just about the whole Outside, in general" his father reports. Harry's been spending many long minutes lately trying to imagine what a tall building will look like and how it will feel to ride or a streetcar. Harry has never seen the one, nor done the other.
 And while the Valley Scout is away, he'll keep in touch with Valley folks through the columns of the Valley Frontiersman. liar ry has promised to act as spe- cial correspondent for the From tiersman on the trip, and he'll recount for it's readers his impress sions of the myriad strange sights and sounds of the great Outside.
