A half hour brought us there, and then
scene ensood which filled me with JOY on
sneeIsbis. The niegers wuz routed out and
their goods wuz bundled after EN-. The
Bibles and skool books vss destroyed first,
coz we had no use for them then chairs,
tables and bureaus, clothin and beddin wuz
distributed. A woman led tho impudence

the way, the inspired writer must hev yoosed
this word "bre,hren'' in this connection
fgeratisely. The niger bein . beast cannot

too much zeal 10 this matter, but what else
Good We hev dun7 We are high toned, and
can't stand everything. These niggers he'd
no right to irriiate US by their presence
They knowd our feelins on the subiick, apd

leans they brought their fate onto their own
heads.
Pollock recovered, and with the Yankee
skool who wuz teechin the niggers, left for
the North yesterday. II speeks we'll for the
forbearsnce Nv our people that they wuz per-
Intted 10 depart ST all.
