I shut my eyes to the outside world and thought silently and seriously of the grand step you have at last decided to take. While it grieves me sorely to give my dear and only sister up to the man of her choice, I don't know of another one I would more willingly trust her future happiness with and God grant that you may make his and your life a continued honeymoon to be concluded at lifes end. You have lived twenty seven years to be a comfort and blessing to us all and it is hard of so hard to give you up. I have never realized until tonight as I sit alone in our little and look around and see so many little articles made by your dear hands, how devotedly I love you and what life is to be without you. But Jim is one that knows your worth and I have no fears but what he will always love and cherish you until his dying day. so I now reluctantly and yet confidingly acquiesce to Jim's long pleading prayer for it is a duty and happiness that I intend following that is to love and make some good worthy man happy some day in the far future. If God is willing you have had ample time to study and know that this is the most important moment in your life and by this wise decision I pray you may never regret it, but be thankful and happy for such a kind and devoted companion. With a heart full of love and best wishes for you future life. I have just finished taking my first big cry. Good night with many kisses. Your loving sister, Lyde ************************************************************************** *************************************** (About the Ladies' Auxiliary at the Easley Presbyterian Church, Easley, SC) "In 1925 the Auxiliary studied Home and Foreign Mission books, Stewardship, and the Bible. Mrs. J.E. Hagood was elected secretary. She was the principal spiritual leader of the spiritual side of the work." "In August, 1927, our present president, Mrs. W.W. Robinson, and our former president, Mrs. G.H. Mathews, agreed that the outstanding feature of the year was the spiritual development of the Auxiliary, and resolved to compare with the coming years. Grand total of collections and contributions for the year 1927 and 1928 was $1,123.00. Largest contributor was Mrs. G.H. Mathews, next Mrs. E.C. Martin and Mrs. Dora Hagood. Mrs. Hagood was born and educated in Pickens County as Miss Dora Folger. " Source: "Presbyterian Women of South Carolina" edited by Margaret A. Gist, Published by Woman's Auxiliary of the Synod of South Carolina, copyright 1929. ************************************************************************** *************************************** "Mrs. J.E. Hagood, Jr." "Our lives are determined by what someone has called 'our priorities', the things which we make our chief desires. And we must make a choice. We can have pride or humility, but we cannot have both. We can have a life of sin and selfishness, or we can walk the way of life with Christ, but we must choose one or the other. There is a highway and a low way, declares the poet, and we must weigh everything in the light of the way it leads. The things on which one sets one's heart may not always be the things that life will give, but they will determine the kind of person o0ne is. Hence the Lord's teaching concerning the supreme 'priority of life': 'Seek ye first the kingdom of God and His righteousness.' Such a person is Miss Dora - she chose humility instead of pride; she chose to walk the way of Christ, instead of a life of sin and selfishness; she chose the highway instead of the low way; she sought first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness." "Miss Dora was born and educated in Pickens County and has served in various capacities in the Woman's work of the Easley Presbyterian Church since 1903, at which time she became a charter member of the Ladies Aid. About 1906 she served as President while Mrs. Mathews was away. In 1920 the Ladies Aid was changed to the Ladies Aid and Missionary Society. Mrs. Hagood was missionary leader at that time, and also Supt. of the Primary Dept. Since 1934 Miss Dora has held the following offices: 1934-36, Sec. of Foreign Missions; 1936-38, Pastor's Aid Secretary; 1938-39, Sec. of Foreign Missions; 1939-40, Historian; 1941-42, Secretary of Spiritual Life; 1945-46, Historian." "Miss Dora has served willingly, faithfully and efficiently in all these capacities, always obedient to God's will, abiding in Him and bringing forth much fruit. Faithful service such as Miss Dora has rendered comes from the mystery of the life that dwells in Christ." "Apologies to Edgar Guest:" "Somebody said that it couldn't be done But Miss Dora with a chuckle replied That maybe it couldn't, but she would be one Who wouldn't say so till she'd tried. So she buckled right in with the trace of a grin On her face. If she worried she hid it. She started to sing as she tackled the thing That couldn't be done and she did it.
Somebody scoffed: 'Oh, You'll never do that, At least no one ever has done it,' But she took off her coat, and she took off her hat, And the first thing we knew she'd begun it. With a lift of her chin and a bit of a grin, Without any doubting or quiddit, She started to sing as she tackled the thing That couldn't be done, and she did it.
There are thousands to tell you it cannot be done, There are thousands to prophesy failure; There are thousands to point out to you, one by one, The dangers that wait to assail you, But just buckle in with a bit of a grin, Just take off you coat and go to it; Miss Dora just started to sing as she tackled the thing That couldn't be done and she did it."

************************************************************************** *************************************** "I have vivid recollections of going for Sunday lunches and visits at the house in Easley across from West End School. Being the oldest grandchild, I can remember "Mammy" (Dora Folger), Uncle Trez (Alonzo Trezevant Folger), and Aunt Lyde (Lydia C. Folger) pretty well. We all remember Uncle Ed (John Edwin Folger) and his most interesting personality. He would often exclaim 'Hurrah for Nixon and Lodge' for no reason at all. (Nixon - Republican presidential candidate, 1960, along with Vice-Presidential candidate Lodge - MGHB/2002) I went for an overnight visit in that house once and don't think I ever went to sleep. It was a little scary for a five or six year old. I do remember being sent many times down the path at the back of the house to retrieve Vi, Jim Murphy and Gladys (black servants who were sisters. Jim Murphy continued on as the servant to Dora Folger's son Ben Folger Hagood and his wife Margaret until their deaths) to come help in the kitchen. Their mother was a gargantuan lady named Minnie who, I believe, was too big to walk. I had never seen anybody so big at that early age. Mammy was the epitome of a graceful and dignified 'souther lady', softspoken and very feminine. It hurts to go by that house now and think about the folks who lived there in their declining years. But, I do have great memories of a wonderful period of my life that involved those four individuals."

Last week I received new orders and have been transferred to another ship. Will be stationed here and do practically the same work as I have been doing for the last six weeks. Margaret wrote me that she told you of our plans for the future and that you agreed to same with one exception, that is making the trip here alone. At the time we planned I was so enthused over having her with me, that I didn't give the details the consideration, or else at the time I would have known that she couldn't come alone. Since then I have written Mother, telling her when we expected to be married. Haven't had to hear from her but feel sure that either she or Aunt Lyde will come down with Margaret. It is needless to say that I am the happiest person in the world for I have reasons to be so. I know that you will miss her and like all mothers will hate for her to leave you, but I will do all in my power toward making her happy, and giving her all the comforts I can afford. I deem it a privilege as well as a pleasure to do for her. I am sorry that we can't have the wedding there, but this war makes it necessary to make it a strictly "war wedding". Should mother be unable to come, I will then make other arrangements . With best wishes to you and the family - I am as ever, (signed) Ben ************************************************************************** ***************************************
