The Mrs. Kells Controversy

The following statements were the
result of a conference between the
parties concerned, held at jackson Oil
the 9th inst, and explain a chapter
in matter that has been attracting
attention throughout the State:
published some time since in the
Meridian News, over the signature of
Justitia, an article in which | reflected
upon the board of trustees touching
the adjustment of the chair filled by
Mrs. II. Is. kells in the Industrial In
stitute and College, attributing their
action to Mrs. Kells' connection with
the WOman's Christian Temperance
Union.
After frank interview and full
conference with some of the trustees,
said article upon the governor and
the board were incorrect and should
not have been made, though at the
time made, with the information then
in my possession, it was natural for
me to reach the conclusion contained
in the article.
w. G.. BLACK.
Having had full and free confer
enee with Rev. DR.. Black touching
the article over the signature of
"Justitia, we are entirely satisfied
that he did not intend to do any one
injustice, and we cheerfully acquit him
of any wrong intention and can read
lily with the information in his posses
sion, understand how he came to write
the article mentioned.
