Many a white man and woman today
in America looks back across the years
with affectionate memories TO their

South: but emancipatcd negroes-male

different beings. and it is difficult TO
imagine their instining affection or any
sentiment based upon feelings more per-

perfunctory philanthropy"
One thing which struck Burne-Jones
throughout his stay was the lack Of

social system toward their superiors.

recognized that this was due to funda-
mental equality Of all American citi-

His visit here focused his attention on
American politics, which seems peculiar

the root of all that America once held
