The Rev Gentleman who took his text
| in Hoh no 1th
few Sundays since. and wound up by
trying to condemn the Afro. Americans
who belong to white congregations, and
stated to his hearers that AFRO. Americans
were not wanted in the churches where
white people worship; had better re-
member the edmonition of Davy Crockett
which is: "Be sure you're right, then 90
ahead" 70 this gentleman We will pat
one question; DOES your congregation
want you? II 40, why does it not support
it's pastor properly? He also claimed
that there were 1900 Afro-Americans in
this city, and yet were not able to sup
port one minister. What if there are
this number here, do you suppose they
all belong TO one denomination? There
are others here besides Methodists. We
have ladies and gentlmen here who have
been members of white chu, ches since
Wisconsin was territory, and they were
welcome in the churches here at that
! time when We were only :.chat,le and to-
day we are citizens. We will say in con.
clusion to the Reverend gentleman, we
have no grievances in our churches. We
keep our ministers from Is to 20 years.
So don't let these people who belong to
other congregations worry you. There
are hardly 1900 Afro-Americans in the
state.
