"Daddy has a friend who owns a farm outside of Greensboro, and I loved to go out there," Janice ventured. "I always said I'd love to live on a farm." "Huh!" came Marty's usual explosive grunt. "You'll git mighty tired of livin' on this one I bet you!" "Why should I? You've got horses, and cows, and chickens, and and all that haven't you?" "Well, we've got a pair of nags that you can plow with.
Smith, however, thought of a surer plan of keeping him in Greensboro; she called him and told him he might have his freedom. Bill never attempted to again leave the place although he did not receive a cent for his work until his master had died, the store passed into the hands of one of Mr. Smith's sons, and the emancipation of all the slaves was a matter of eight or ten years' history!
During the year a series of related suffrage papers were prepared by members of the Greensboro league and distributed by the State league among the different branches. Miss Weil was continued as president. Reports of all committees and of the work in general throughout the State, were so encouraging that Miss Shuler frequently voiced the common feeling, "North Carolina will ratify."
The writer heard him narrate this after his return from Washington, when his last term in the Presidential office had expired.

Olga might know nothing about it. Yet her disappearance without informing her friends of her intention to leave Greensboro looked suspicious. Mr. Day had to search further. He had two other persons to discover.
She was sure that the air of Poketown would never in this world make her feel any happier or healthier than she felt right here at home in Greensboro. "I just hope something will happen to keep me from going to Poketown or anywhere else," Janice repeated, over and over again. And then, it did happen. Nothing that she had imagined, of course.
Of course, all of Janice Day's school friends did not go away from Greensboro for the summer vacation; or, if they did go away for a little visit, they were soon back again. And when the girls heard that Janice's father had broken his leg and that Janice was tied to the house with him, they began to come to see her, and inquire about daddy, and cheer her up. None of them realized that, with Mrs.

At the public school in Greensboro, in the village of Hamilton, in his home, every one called him Teeny-bits, and though the name did not apply to him now as appropriately as it had applied when he was four or five years younger, it still fitted him so well that no one questioned it.
He was second in command at Shiloh with A.S. Johnston, then the "Department of South Carolina, Georgia, and Florida." With J.E. Johnston he commanded the last remnant of a once grand army that surrendered at Greensboro, N.C.
