(I remember that I was awakened in my bed upstairs, not by anyone--why I did wake I do not know; perhaps the feeling in the air. I went trotting downstairs and entered the room." (MY NOTES: This little boy was just 5) "My mother was there, and neighbors; I recall two of them, Mr. and Mrs. Barbee (He means Bibee). I looked at father, and went up and kissed him on the cheek. He had just passed on. I recall nothing further, except that a funeral procession in farm wagons drove to Lemons in the mud, and en route I said two or three times--(we were in the wagon behind the one carrying the coffin)--"Ma, I can see the coffin", finally to be shushed by my mother. James Wesley Scobee married Lovena Sibole Nov. 4, 1869. Their children;
