We made our owncandles from tallow and beeswax. I 'spect some of the old candle mouldsare over to 'the house' now. We wove our own candle wicks too. I neversaw a match 'til I was a grown woman. We made our fire with flint an'punk (rotten wood). Yes'm, I was trained to cook an' clean an' sew. Ilearned to make mens' pants an' coats. First coat I made, Miss Juliatold me to rip the collar off, an' by the time I picked out all theteensy stitches an' sewed it together again I could set a collar right...!I can do it today, too! (Again there is manifested a good workman'spardonable pride of achievement) "Miss Julia cut out all the clothes herself for men and women too. I'spect her big shears an' patterns an' old cuttin' table are over at thehouse now. Miss Julia cut out all the clothes an' then the colored girlssewed 'em up but she looked 'em all over and they better be sewed right!Miss Julia bossed the whole plantation.
