Individual:
From papers sent to me by Linda Cameron Holeman, OK. This was written by Mildred Fielding Lawler.
"The "Marchant's" wife, Margaret Monroe, was a smart woman. She never had a bonnet in her life--wore a hat. She said she was never tired but once in her life; that was when she hunted the cows two or three days.
When the "Marchant" married her and brought her home, he had a work spell the next day, a log-rolling or something of the kind, to which the men of the neighborhood were invited. She asked her husband where the meat was for the dinner. He said there wasn't any, but did not seem worried about it. After the men went to work, the bride went out and killed a hog and cooked some of it for dinner, so when they came in to dinner there was a plenty of meat on the table.
The "Marchant" had a great deal of land and kept a good many cattle. At Cameron Hill, ten miles east of the present town of Cameron, they had a cabin. His wife would spend several days at a time there, herding the cattle. Her boy Neill would go with her and take a book along and study while she was looking after the cows. She rode horseback and kept a saddle horse as long as she lived.
The above information and stories I got in 1917 from Cousin Betsy Ann McFadyen, daughter of Aunt Peggy Tyson."
