Card from E. W. Lloyd.
To the School Board of Jackson:

To the School Board of Jackson:
Some days ago received a card from
your worthy secretary, I. S. Matthews,
respectfully requesting me to visit our
public schools during the week ending
September 2Sth, and to invite company
to visit with me, and after visiting
through the schools to make any sugges-
tions for their benefit In compliance
with the request, on Friday. in company
with Rev. L. Hewitt, and also Rev. Nc
Whorter part of the time, we visited as
many Of the rooms as we could
Failing to get through all the .rooms,
we were necessarily compelled to defer
completing the work until Monday fol
lowing. The above named brethren being
compelled to leave, l was left without
company. Suffice it to say that we found
every department running in the very
best of order. We were highly pleased
with the manner in which the teachers
conducted their respective classes. Every
thing is carried on Systematically, and
with the greatest precision-indeed,s so
much so, that we have no suggestions to
make. The iudicious manner in which
the schools are carried on reflects great
credit upon Judge Longbon, who is, and
has been the Principal for some years
1t is a credit to the town Of Jackson, and
especially to the School Board.

Rev: James Poindexter, of Columbus
made speech at the Court House on
Friday night. The room was crowded,
being the largest meeting Of either party
this fall. The speaker is nearly as white
as the average white man, and a good
deal whittier than some Democrats we
might name. His hair was long, thick,
straight and white. His features showed
the African very distinctly. His speech
was made up of strong points, but lacked
continuity.
