She was one of the old time slavery Negroes, and formerly belonged to W.D. Crawford’s father. Will and Sam Crawford’s mother died when they were both young and this old negro woman was almost a mother to them. Will had the old woman buried decently, buying a nice coffin and attending to all the details of the burial. No doubt the death of their old colored foster mother makes their hearts sad.
