Grace Batts remembers "courtin" days. |
We went somewhere and bought a black leather sofa. When the boys would come [my sister] Annie would done be sitting on it before I'd get in the living room. Me and my boyfriend would sit in the rocking chairs. In the summertime Papa bought a swing and then we raced to see who's going to court in the swing on the front porch. On Sunday nights the boys would come in the evening and we'd just sit outside. Wednesday we sit inside. But Papa got so he would tell us that Annie couldn't sit in the swing every Sunday night. Take turns. So I had a turn to sit in the swing. |
