Description:
Sherwood Valley have English sir-names which they took from the name of the man they worked for, just as the negroes took the names of their masters. Sherwood in his life-time acquired wide celebrity by reason of his shrewdness, conversational powers and patriarchal appearance. From the the Sherwood porch one looks out over a most charming prospect of valley, wooded hills with open swales between, and in the distance the heavy outline of Mt. Sanhedrin. Nearly all that one can see, except the distant mountains, Sherwood owned -- a principality. ::::::::: August 7, 1907.
