I’UNCLE BARBER’S PICTURE. How an Eccentric Old Negro’s Protrslt Became as familiar as the World’s Rulers. One of the renowned characters of Richmond, Va., up to the time of his death, 10 years ago, was “Uncle Bar ber” Graves an eccentric represen tatlre of slavedays, who was as wide ly known about the city as the town clock or Governor. At the time of his death he had passed the century mark by five years. During the last eighteen years of his life he had been In the employ of P. Whitlock, proprietor of the larg est special cheroot factory In world, and manufacturer of “Old Vir ginia Cheroots.” At the time Mr. Whitlock first started to manufacture his “Old Vir ginia Cheroots,” there was a discus sion in his office as to what they would use as a trademark. Old "Un cle Barber" was in the office at the time, and someone jokingly remarked that it would be a good idea to use his picture. He had a peculiarity of wearing heavy brass-rimmed spectac les. but always kept them on bis fore- hear-^-never u*** “*— to se through The sugges’ion was considered In the light of a joke at the time but the negro’s picture was taken, and it made such a unique and distinctive trade mark that it. was adopted, and has been used ever since. The trade mark was registered Ip 1886, and Is now, like the "Old Vir ginia Cheroots,]’ familiar to every nook &nd corner of the land. A LETTER FROM NORTH CAROLINA Warren ton, N.
