One evening , word was sent to the salve section saying that something unusual was going to take place at the Big House the next morning. There was little, if any, sleep that night. All was excitement and expectation. In the morning my family, along with all the other slaves, old and young, went to thee master’s house. All of our master’s family were either standing or seated on the porch of the house where they could see what was to take place and hear what was said. The clearest thing that I now remember in connection with the scene was that some man, a stranger ( a United States officer, I guess), said a few words and then read a rather long document _ the Emancipation Proclamation, I think. After the reading we were told that we were all free, and could go when and where we pleased. My mother, who standing by my side, kissed her children while tears of happiness ran down her face. She explained to us what it all meant, that this was the day for which she had been praying so long, but fearing that she would never live to see.
