(This poem concerning the
Roxboro of years ago is repro-
duced by request).
Some folk they say it still exists,
But it is not the same;
So to those within this place to-
night
Who can back up fifty years,
We'll recall the ways of early
days
Through Roxboro's vale of
tears;
Those stirring blues which we'll
recall
Were not considered slow,
By the people of those early
times
In Roxboro long ago.
There used to be a mill here
once,
A busy, busy mill,
And the farmers came from
miles around
And 'ftnie with right good
will
They came to get some flour
made,
Their families to support,
'And do some shopping at the
stores
That flourished hereabout:
And if they had some time to
spend,
To the tavern they would
go,
Which did a thriving business
then
In Roxboro long ago.
Lots I have heard about the
folks
In those old early days,
About the Dicksons and the
Scotts

And people they call Hays;
McMillans and McMiehaels too,
There were some not far
away,
And descendants of this early
stock ,
Are here unto this day;
And McDowell upon the river
bank,
He's gone these many years;
These were the men who flour-
ished then
In Roxboro long ago.
If these old chaps could au come
back
And visit for a spell
What opinion they would have
of us
Is really hard to telL
Great changes have been
brought about
Since they did flourish here;
Some things would suit, some
would not, "
Those chaps of right good
cheer;
Some customs that we have here
now
Would seem alnaighty slow,
For they could get their whistle
wet
In Roxboro long ago.
Of all the chaps who flourished
once
Around this happy spot,
Perhaps I heard the most about
Old James and Robbie Scott
Large Families these two men
did have,
They're settled here and
there.
But creditable they are indeed
To the illustrious name they
bear, -
For 'though Scott is a common
name
'Tis a good one don't you
know,,
And produced some men of ex-
tra fame
In the days of long ago.
There were noble men and wo-
men then
In those old days afar,
When they listened to the ser-
tnons
Of the Reverend Matthew
Barr.
I'm told he pointed out to them
The stralat and narrow
• way,
As he preached the gospel to
them
- 'Ina place called Harpurhey;
I mind that patriarch myself
, Back twenty years ago;
He was nigh the last connecting
link
With Roxboro long ago.
The men of those early times
Have nigh all gone and past,
For fifty years is quite a spell
When added to the rest;
But there are two as I'll remark
Are still above the ground
The survivors of that noble
band
That in Roxboro once was
fpuucli
Peihaps they were the youngest
Of those men of years ago,
That flourished in those earlY
days
Of Roxboro long ago.
The one lives in the village now
" And he feels quite spry you
bet;
His name is Johnnie Walker
Have you not guessed it yet?
The other's farming up the road,
`His name is Tommy Hays.
These are the sole survivors
Of. those wet, old early days;
They were no laggards in their
time,
But had 1ot6 of snap and go;
And could dance a jig in the
bar room big,
rn Roxboro long ago.
And there used to be a dam here
once
In Roxboro by a Mill sit,
But there is no mill in Roxboro
now, ;
• No, no, there's none in sight
But things of course they change
a lot
And old things pass away,
And Roxboro is quite different
From that old early day.
But in this time of Christmas
chimes,
It can do no harm to know
The conditions of those early
times
In Roxboro long ago.
