You will see at once, dear friends, that I have but little time to call my own, hardly time to write a short letter to the dear ones far away in my northern home. I am enchanted with the scenery here, and particularly with the forest trees and forest flowers, such as the dog-wood, red-bud, honey- suckle, calycanthus, sensitive plant, yellow and white jessamine, the magnolia, bay, and numer- ous other flowers. The woods, the groves, the APPENDIX. 275 dells are all perfumed with these luxuriant f...low- ers. It is a perfect fairy land. If I were a poet, or an artist, or anything but myself I would want to live and die here in this beauti- ful garden of Eden. A word now about my colored friends. I thought the first two or three weeks I was here that there would not be much left of Georgie and me to be sent back to the North. I began to think they would eat me up or shake me to pieces. I did not know which. Aunt Retta, the old cook, took me in her arms and called me honey, and all sorts of pet names, and said her dear child had got home once more and she thanked the Lord for it; but when Ann, the house maid, came in, she took me in her arms and tossed me up just as though I had been a rag doll ; and others went through with all sorts of gymnastic exercises.
