third is filed with hunting and fishing
apparatus. The man makes his livelihood
by hunting and fishing. His clothes are

The census man who was assigned the
enumeration of the Sea Islanos coast OF
South Carolina made remarkable dis
covery. HAWAII Island, some miles
down the coast, is owned by two of the
families of ante-bellum Sea Island bar
ons. The enumeration, to his surprise,
found there'a black colony of about one
hundred and fifty souls, and struck a
region, the only one in the world, in
which all the inhabitants were English
speaking, reading and writing Negroes
Every Negro he met could read and
write. Every child of suitable age could
also read and write, and the women
were just as intelligsn as the men. All
were prospecting under the wise rule OF
mulatto cacique named Quash Stephens
whose wife was responsible for the edu-
cation of the people.
