Aaron attracted consjderable atten- tion. In the first place he was black as coal, Then he was much larger than the youngsters who were in the same class, They lost no time in picking him out as the butt of all thelr jokes, They stuck pins in him, put wax in his hair and did other things that did not add to his peace of mind, Altogether Aaron began to think that he had got into a pretty bad place and he longed for old South Carolina, Slashed Right and Left.

Aaron immediately pulled out the sharp and slender blade and began to slash right and left, There was a crowd of about three hundred boys around him at the time, and they scattered as fast as their legs could carry them.
