1921. The following passage is an excerpt from The Path to Pisgah: Almost it seemed we were back in ante bellum days; for there were Negro house servants and Negro field hands, Negro boys and girls and mammies, Negro minstrels and Negro jollity. There was a young Negro butler and a fat, jolly old Auntie Dede for cook. A Negro boy tended the fires, a Negro girl was ready at beck and call for errands; and during the evening could be heard back in the kitchen and long dining-hall, the scraping of the fiddle and the shuffling of feet, with bursts of laughter and railery, where the servants, all of one hue, were making merry.
