Emily was very beautiful and lovely in heart and life; thus she drew to herself a host of admiring friends, and her friends were not confined to those of her own age, older people loved her and loved to have her in their homes. Among others, General Francis Marion and Mrs. Marion were very fond of her and often had her to make them long visits in her young days. Likewise, General Peter Horry and Mrs. Horry would have her spend much time with them. Mrs. Horry was Emily's aunt, her mother's sister.
Emily never forgot any of these dear friends of her girlhood days, and in after years in her far distant western home she loved to tell her children and her grand-children of the happy days she spent with them.
