He (William Goodwin) often teased Grandmother (Rosa Sharp) about an experience she had during the war. Yankee soldiers discovered the Sharp family had some flour and demanded that they make biscuits for them. Grandmother had to do it but spit in the biscuit dough. She was a dainty refined lady and when he told this she would say "Oh shucks Daddy." - Ruth Henry West
