Personal Reminiscences

Last week's Jackson Standard has the following which we extract from an article headed "The Whirligig of Time"

"Emily Harvey had a half brother who was about my age. His name was Elgin McAtee. There was a wild, romantic
place on the Black Fork of Symmes Creek, about a mile from where my father lived. It was known as the Greasy Beaver
Pond. In the summer there were great quantities of blackberries in this place. One Sunday, forenoon I was there for berries, and there were fifteen or twenty others there. Among them were several of my cousins, young men. I think Solomon Mackley, Jr. was there and his brothers, Andrew and Jesse; Old Jesse Corn, the hardshell Baptist preacher, and his brother Jim, and his sisters Lucy and Hannah, and others. Lucy and Hannah Corn commenced taunting Elgin McAtee, and boy like, he retorted. The Corn girls became insulted and told their big brothers that Elgin had " jabbed" them. Jesse Corn got a big switch and caught Elgin by the arm. He did not strike him, but he raved and yelled at him so that he could have been heard a half a mile.
