In short address to the Judges, the
jury and the prosecutors, the attorney

charges withdrawnwere of such nature
that it would be rather hard to prove
them. For this reason he allowed them

business
Bruce Evan, principal of the Arm

Cooling, principal of the colored normal
school, ought to be removed, and that
he was going to see that she was re-

Attorney Mcnamara said that all his
witnesses had testified He said that
with the exceptions of the first and
second allegations and the three thrown

DR.. Chancellor was cautioned TO use

evening that seemed a little broad?'
There was no dissent to any extent. y
Mrs. Westcott stated that the article
was read aloud by Mr.. Hughes, after
the discussion was given by DR.. Chan
cellor to Mr.. Hughes TO be typewriter.
After some further questions, attorney
for the board objected to her reading
the article, unless she could identify 1t
as the one exhibited in DR.. Chancellor's
house. The board sustained more than
fifty objections offered by the prosecu-
ton
Charles NJ. Thomas, colored, teacher

against the superintendent, sustained
the school objection to a question Of
Mr.. Fulton's testified he had heard
these men talking. He said DR.. Chan
celIor told them the board intended to

He said the superintendent also advised
them to enlist the support Of any

written by DR.. Chancellor as the one
which Dr.. Chancellor and Mr. Hughes
discussed on the night the latter went
to the formers house.
Miss Burch, private secretary to the
superintendent, testified that DR.. Chan
cellor had dictated to her a letter in
which he ordered all books unclean and
of fraiI character to be discarded. In
his letter the superintendent says 1t

would leave a scholar without a book
or not. The letter also said that this
action was taken with the cognizance
of the board. Miss Burch was excused
