SHARP SHOOTING.
After Mr.. Garnett finished reading hi,
nominations. Mr.. Reddy nominated a co.
lOrcd man named ID. Il. Williams, a former

Captain Paul had communication read
signed by a number OF cOlOred minister,
and others. which. among other things, al.
luded TO his being discharged by a =. Bour.
bon-Funder Board" Captain Paul said
he dId not know that this sentence was in
the letter.
Mr.. Hudnall decided that the language
was improper and ordered il TO be stlickcr
out.
Mr. Hill said Williams was the biggest
bunch Of cOnccit he ever saw wrapped uI
in so small a compass. He thought hin
incompetent.
Mr.. Rcddy advocated Wiliams's clec,
ton.
superintendent Garnett said William,
was a crank" and that ne had fair tIIa
and was discharged a. teacher for incom.
potency and insubOrdinatiOn. He said vii.
liams had rs good as called him (Garnet) a
liar, and he did not want man as teacher
that would come before the Board ard
talk in that way. He thought If would be
troging him with disrcSpect TO elect him..
Paul said he did not think it right to cal
Williams crank. lie would like TO sec
Mr.. Hill or Mr.. Garnctt hang Williams on
any question. "There wouldn't be piece
OF them left as big As his finger-nail." He
wanted him to have fair play. He bad
been imposed on and Mr.. Garnett was pre-
judiced against him. Williams was not
present Mr. Garnett was.
Williams was elected.
When the election Of principals OF the
Nayy-IIill School came up, Mr.. Garnet
nominated the old incumbents. saying that
he couldn't find a colored man competent,
Whereupon Paul said, sneeringly: Seer.
tanly-because they are colored. That j,
the reason am not fit to be on the School
Board"
Notwithstanding the Superintendent''
assertion OF competency, the old prlncl'
pals were turned out and cOlored ones put
in their place by a vote Of to >.
MR.. PEAY.
When Mr.. Pcay was nominated in place
OF Mr.. Pace, principal OF Flba school,
he was taken 10y surprise. and, rising up,
said that be wanted it understood that hC

causing any one TO lose place, and that he
had never sought the place: that his nom
ination was a surprise; and that he dId not
know whether he could serve or not il
elected. Notwithstanding all this he wa,
unanimously elected.
