UTTER A WARNING.
Grant Monument and Old Folks Homo
scheme-Mr Porter's Side.

FCntiut-lhhb OAtVi ''''N'
Some of the colored residents Of Jack
son Ward have become very much exer-
cised over the organization OF an alleged
benevolent organization known as the
General L. S. Grant Monument Associa-
ton and Old Folks Home" in their
midst, which purports to have for its
object the perpetUation Of the memory OF
General Grant and the providing of a
home for INDECENT ex-slaves.
They have for some time been agitating
the question of warning their race against
the association. and Thursday night a
meeting was held at True Reformers'
Hall for this purpose. The attendance
was quite large After several addresses
Edward Ellis, Jr., presented the folloW-
ing. which was adopted.
Whereas, a few businessmen and
some of the ministers of this city were
in conference July q, 1894, and had laid
before them the charter of the United
States Grant Monument and Old-Foiks'
Home Association (natiOnaD and where
as. the provision of said charter made
revelations contrary to the representa-
tons and practice of said concern
namely they represented that money was
not to be solicited from colored people,
but that the double construction of the
charter Uhe United States Grant Monu-
ment and Old-Folks' Home Association.
mationaD was to get money from the
white people north on Grants name,
and from the white people south on the
old folks home feature; and whereas. the
said association was condemned in the
said conference by resolution and speech;
therefore be il
"Resolved That II is the sense OF TINS
meeting that the publication and repre-
sensations made with respect To an Old
folks home for ex-slaves and their de-
scendants is designed TO deceive. first the
black people, and secondly, the kihdiy
disposed white people, both North ana
South; and that we unqualihedly condemn
the scheme, and urge upon our people
| not TO contribute any money towards IT.
| nor to give it their moral sanction.
