Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Recollections of an Old Man: Seventy Years in Dixie 1827-1897 Though not an old man, my memory goes back for somewhat more than half a century. The things that happened then are as clear in my mind as if they took place only yesterday. In 1854-55, or thereabouts, Brother Sullins - they did not call any preacher Doctor, except Sam´l Patton, those days - was station preacher in my native town of Jonesboro. How distinctly he stands out before me as he then was: six feet and over tall, with a great shock of coal black hair on his head, blue-grey eyes that kindled when he talked to you, and a voice that could be as caressing as a mother´s and as martial as a general´s on the field of battle. My mother was a Methodist of the old pattern, and Brother Sullins was often in the home. Two of my sisters went to school to him and loved him dearly.
