Biography: 

Granny Millard's dead husband owned a "supply house" in Memphis (688). One of his customers was Nathan Bedford Forrest, who (although the story never mentions it) was a well-known Memphis planter and slave-dealer at that time. He and Forrest "sometimes" sat together on the front porch and "sometimes" ate together too (688).
