Mr. Crawford, 91, Moves
For First Time in Life
Ninety - one year old William
Crawford moved this year for
the first time in his life.
Mr. Crawford, who says he
finds doing nothing “the hard
i est job’’ he ever had, left the
old Crawford home place in
I Gore last January to reside in
Summerville.
“He didn’t want -o move,”
confides winsome Mrs. Crawford
“because he wanted to die on the
place just as his father did. But
we just had to get closer in and
our nephews, John Jones and
Crawford Bailey, have just been
wonderful taking care of us
here.”
Mr. Crawford was a member
I of a family of seven boys and
| three girls. Four of the boys are
still living and those deceased
lived beyond 70. None of the sis
ters are living.
The Crawford place is locat
|ed south of Tidings and Mr.
Crawford says he believes the
I house was built in 1842 or 1843.
His father brought his first wife
j there from North Carolina. The
first Mrs. Crawford and their'
child never survived a typhoid
epidemic, and the story is popu
lar in the Crawford family of
her father’s return here from
! North Carolina three months
I after the death and taking the
body back in a two-horse wagon.
Mr. Crawford, whose name
was Thaddeous Constintine,
then married a Gore girl and
became a pastor of the Bethel
Presbyterian Church.
The younger Mr. Crawford re
| calls his father telling of riding
j a horse and leading a horse to
the home of his prospective>
bride where the ceremony was to
take place. After the marriage,
the new Mrs. Crawford rode the
horse back to the Crawford
place which was a distance of
about four miles.
“They both lived right between
mountains, but it was some dis
tance apart,” Mr. Crawford said.
There used to be a post office
in that section, and it was call
ed Dirttown, but since that name i
wasn’t very appealing it wasj
changed to Kartah, which has
the same meaning.
Recalls War
Having been born in 1858. Mr.
Crawford can recall the War be
tween the States.
“I was just a chap then, but
things like that are stamped in
to your memory so that even
youngsters don’t forget. It
wasn’t so much the Yankees that
bothered us as it was our own
boys. They killed our hogs, took
our horses and killed every
chicken but one.”
He told of standing with an
I old darkey on a roadside and
I watching a portion of Sherman’s
| army go down the road.
As for himself, Mr. Crawford
has never been in combat, nor
was his father, having been a
i minister.
For 83 years, Mr. Crawford has
I been an Elder in the Bethel
! Presbyterian Church, and at
| tended services regularly until
I his hearing became defective.
Mrs. Crawford displayed a
; Bible, whose frayed edges and
I torn leaves told of it’s constant
| usage, and pointed out the fine
j print which Mr. Crawford is able
to read.
A recent physical check -up
I indicated, Mrs. Crawford said,
I that he was in fine condition
j with the exception of one leg
. which has been lame since child-
I hood.
The Crawfords have been
i married for 38 years and al-
I though they have no children
they find their nephews are as
; attentive and considerate as any
! children could be. Before her
i marriage, Mrs. Crawford was
| Alice Henderson.
Many Changes
“A lot of things have changed
iin Summerville since I first
I came here 77 years ago,” de
i dares Mr. Crawford. “There was
; a hotel where Chattooga Mer
| cantile is now and a Branner
| Store was located at the present
j site of the Jackson Drug Store.”
Mr. Crawford has never been
; farther away from Chattooga
| County than when he attended
j Davidson College, Davidson, N.
I C.
“I got sight of Virginia,” he
I said, “but just never did actual
| ly get into the state. I have been
|i n Alabama and Tennessee
I though.”
Mr. Crawford retired from
farming several years ago, but at
I the age of 86 he was plowing.
“I really didn’t quit until just
I a year or two ago. if you call
I milking, feeding hogs and chick
j ens farming,” he said.
During young manhood, Mr.
| Crawford pursued two occupa-
I tions. that of farming and
teaching school.
Major accident rate for the
■ Naval Air Reserve during 1948
was only 5,35 per 10.000 air
‘ craft hours.
All military weather stations
and airports are now reporting
wind velocities in Navy knot j
system.
THE SUMMERVILLE NEWS
A TRIANGLE STORY
“Can you make diapers?”
asked the soldier in a serious
tone, as he stood at the field
director’s desk with a bundle
under his arm.
“We never have, but we can
try,” the uneasy field director
replied.
“It’s this way,” explained the
new father. “The baby arrived
ten days earlier than we expect
ed. The hospital is short of di
apers, and we can borrow only
two. My wife has to leave the
hospital tomorrow, and we’ve
just got to have some diapers
to tide us over!”
The soldier placed his bundle
on the field director’s desk—
needles, thread, and material
for 24 diapers. The preplexed
field director told him to return
later in the day and they’d be
ready.
Without the slightest notion
of how he could keep his prom
ise, the field director called the
wife of the base commander.
Amazingly enough, she had the
answer. A group of officers’
wives was meeting that day for
lunch and afternoon bridge. She
presented his story to the ladies
before the card game. It did the
trick!
At five that afternoon, the
field director handed the excit
ed solider 24 hand-stitched di
apers. “Gosh, I knew Red Cross
would do the job,” the soldier
grinned.
Southern Baptists operate
through their 21 state conven
tions a total of 30 senior col
leges, 23 junior colleges, and
eight academies. The Southern
Baptist Convention operates
four theological seminaries for
the training of ministers.
The populaton of Cairo,
| Egypt, is made up of people
' following so many different
, religions that every day is “the
Sabbath” for someone.
