Interviewer’s Comment

This program was given on one night, and the participants doubled right back the next night on another lengthy program celebrating Christmas Eve.

Interviewer:  Samuel S. Taylor
Person interviewed:  Julia White (Continued)
                    3003 Cross Street, Little Rock, Arkansas
Age:  80

“The Commissary was on the northeast corner of Third and Cumberland.  They used to call it the government commissary building.  It took up a whole half block.  Mrs. Farmer, the white woman, was living in what you call the old Henderliter Place, the building on the northwest corner, during the War.  She was a Union woman, and was the one that took us in when the Confederate soldiers were passing and wanted to take us to Texas with them.
