I take the liberty of seading you few
words OF praise concerning the Slayton
Jubilee Singers. These marvellous colored
artists. who withaut doubt are unsur-
passed by any Of their race, SO enthused
a vast audience here that was almost
constantly kept in an uproar. You are to
be congratulated upon sending out such
a company. By their nlarvelous rendition
of those unique and captivating planta-
tion melodies, they transported their
hearers to that most delightful region of
our grand republic, the sunny south.
Their music gave all evidence OF excel
lent voice culture and training so rarely
possessed by artists of their race. Last
but by no means least, is their character
which is irreproachable.
Yours very truly,
