Inc question is being verv frequently
asked Why did one w. F. GUY. a
teacher in Morris Brown College, leave
Auanta so suddenly? The reason is
pam. 1t IS because that there is too
iiuch raScallty being covered up in high
PLdCes- A rascal may do his deeds of sin
a. d preacher or teacher in one IIace
anu me powers will say that we must
IIe'e him, and therefore they will send
u; L;nl &c, 10 another "lace or charge to carry
lLS niIh and slime to his new station. A
preacher teacher or whatnot, when he
SoeS wrong should be exposed and not
palmed off on other unsuspecting
people. .s This is respectfully submitted
~ uie consideration of the bishops of
's "a n M. f. church. They know what
tb;n. mean. No school or church or any
NJ i's eise VIII ever thrive with this kind
ar+Lnsdi Luascdiy conduct condoned by the
11S5loriGes. PoiGes Scoundrelism must go.
