I'VE have received an anonymous COM
munication relative to a gross insult offeredE
to lady teacher in the public schools by all
negro director, which we decline to publishf
without the names and all the circumstances
re sent to US. The writer says he was one )
Of thirty or forty others, who stood by andk
heard the coarsest epithets applied by tn F.
negro to the lady in question, and while. It'll
he statement be true, we share his indigna- :
ion, we must also express our amazement
hat SO large number of persons, of any sex y
)r color, would stand by quietly and see al
,ady subjected to such rudeness and insult =
The handwriting of the communication IS
looks like woman's, and it may be there
graceful scene; if that be true, and our cor s.
will come forward with the facts n
ind give US the names, we promise that the III
matter shall be looked into, and the director IS
whoever he may be, brought to realizing 3
sense of the respect and courtesy due to lady.
We believe there have been many instances
n which our lady teachers have quietly borne 81
With insults and affronts from some of the
present School Board, and it is quite time 81
hat these matters were attended to- by those
Who pay for the support of the schools, ano 81
Who are entitled to demand an account of the 81
conduct and capacity of those placed in their
'harge. There is no reason why any lady il
he schools should put up for one moment,
With the slightest disrespect or impertinence
let them at once make the matter known, and
he offender will be made to appreciate his #
mistake.
The public schools of New Orleans are a 81
lisgrace and shame, and they will remain 81
o until thorough change is made in their
