Excerpt from Narrative of Reminiscences: In Williamsburg County

A narrative of reminiscences, in which a partial picture of the customs and habits of the people of old Williamsburg District in South Carolina, as they were fifty, sixty, and sev enty years ago, of their Churches, Sunday Schools, Day Schools, Singing Schools, Quiltings, Play, Games, Dances, and other amusements, have been attempted to be written and drawn by one of their number, who had a place in that picture, and was an actor in these scenes, yet distinctly marked by him as their narrator.

Also many historical facts relating to the old Revolution ary War, as they have been transmitted to the generation of children of these warriors; our great political division had in 1832, as are remembered; and items of our late war, as were recorded in a diary made at the time of their occur rence; and descending to events happening in late dates, all of which their Author asks a consideration for the orig inality of the plan, the conception of the thoughts, and the novelty and peculiarity in the modes of their expressions. The various descriptions, as made in this narrative, are only intended to embrace those of our people who resided at and around Kingstree, Indiantown, Black Mingo, and Muddy Creek, in this county, with whom this writer has been inti mately associated during some periods of his life, now gra ciously extended six years beyond man's allotted time on earth, and with whom be yet lives in hallowed remem brance of such connections.
