knocked down. The negroes then gathered
and defied the officers, declaring that mo

There were twenty-five men in the slope

teen joined hands to prevent being washed
away and stemmed the current which rose
TO their waists.
They found their companions at the ex-
treme end of the slope. whittier they had
