The Leffew Place
As a child in
this house I did play.
After Mother died brother and I went there to stay.
Our Aunt Effie Leffew loved us so,
When Daddy came to get us, we did not want to go.
With tears on my face and sadness in my heart,
Auntie had taken care of brother and me, she did her part.
I sit with wonderful thoughts of long ago.
To Fentress County TN, I wish you all could go.
