Narrative
Notes made by Camilla Mandeville Newell
Carrollton, Georgia
July 1962
Slaves were necessary as the only help to be had. Grandma taught them from the Bible and other books in the big kitchen or under the trees in the back yard.
During the War Between the States closets were built in the two upstairs rooms, filled with grain and the entired room papered. When the Northern Army was headed for Carrollton my father, L. C. Mandeville, and old Enoch took the cows to the woods and kept them there. Grandma walked down to the front gate and talked to an Army Captain. A guard was placed at the gate so no soldiers came in to disturb them or to get food, etc.
My father said that when he was a small boy he used to hang on the front gate and yell at the farmers as they passed by "you have to work for a living, you long-legged cuss." He was thankful that his mother did not hear him.
Narrative
Mary Ann was quite an individual. She was responsible for planting Maple trees from the Presbyterian Church to the railroad. Many of them still stand today.
When the word came that the Yankees were coming to Carrollton during the War Between the States, she removed the salt from the salt box in the back hall, put in all the silverware and jewelry, covered with blankets and canvas and put the salt back in. Nothing was disturbed. All the livestock was hidden. - H. Raleigh Cannon III
