Chairman Holton is evidently on the

number of negroes have for good and
sufficient reasons been refused the
privilege of registration by the regis

these negroes who have been refused
registration have afterwards returned
and presented TO the registrars printed
blanks which the negroes said were
sent them by Chairman Holton, and
in thse blank the registrars were re-
quested to give the reasons why the
negroes were not allowed to register.
