ley as a foe Of the colored man. He said:
Il claim that Mr.. Bradley is the m ost bitter
enemy that the colored man has in the whole
State OF New jersey. He erected a sign on his
beach front. prohibiting the colored people
from the seats In his pavilions which he al
lowed white people to occupy. His sign said
that the negro had no rights that the white
man should respect. In issuing this order Mr..
Bradley refused to allow the colored boy who
takes care OF his horses to take seat In his
beach pavlions. Mr. Bradley has always posed
as friend OF the colored man. but his claim Is
q fraud"
