thus:
There wuz trouble in one Nv the southern
counties NV Ohio. In reliably Democratic
township in that county is settlement Nv Mig

One Nv EN- who carried with him the name NV

near white man ez may be, and he married
wench who wuZ shade whittier than he their

from sixteen to twenty years
Now this Lett is disturber. He he'd a farm
NV perhaps 200 akers and wuz taxed heavy for
skool purposes, but his children wuzn't of course
allowed to attend the skool. None Nv the mig

his payin taxes without enjoyn some of the
Dement'S arlzin from EN-, and aided and abetted
by the other niggers, who were wicked enough

There trouble in that township. Iwuz
sent for to wunst, and gladly come. never

wuz the suhjech Nv yoeniversal talk everywhere,
and the DemocTisy wuZ bilin like pot. I
met the trustees of the township, and demanded !
eff they intended tamely to submit to this out
rage? | askt EN- whether they intended to hev
their children set side by side with the descend
ants NV Ham, who wuz condemned to a posshen |
inferiorty forever. Kin yoo | askt, so de-
grade yourselves, and so blast the self-respeck
of yoor children?
And billing up with indgnashen, they an |
swered - never - aud yoonanimously requested
me to accompany en- to the skool-house, that
they mite peremtorly expel these dsgustin beins
who had obtrooded themselves among those of
sooperior race.
On the way to the skool-house, witch WIZ per-
haps mile distant, ! askt the Board eff they
knowd those girls by site. No they replied,

recoils. SO much experience hev had with EN-

Nnerrin instink wood betray EN- to me- witch by
the way goes to prove that the dislike we hev to

our very nnchers and one NV its highest and ho-
Hest attriboots.
