 While the "Larchmont' diaster is fresh in the mind of the public and a popular demand has been awakened for legal restrictions wilich will pre- vent any such loss of life under simil- arly awful circumstances hereafter, it is well to consider what may be prac- ticable, what laws are enforced to cover such cases elsewhere and exactly why the terrible loss of life in this in- stance ensued.

Being a Westerner as | am, and
having heard SO much of the pre-,

South against the Negro, when l
landed on Southern soil I had
both eyes and ears open to see
and hear a great deal that was not
only distasteful but unhuman. You
may imagine my surprise when l
tell you that within a short time
after the vessel sailed, [ felt 1 was

She was a noble, christian wo-

well the beloved ones of him who
lifted into the white light of free

Her declining years were spent
farfrom the turmoil and strife OF

She was perhaps forgotten by
many who knew her well in Other
