cof the evening.
Mr.. H. A. Boyd read tbhe EmanCipa-
ton Proclamation after which Hon.
]. G. Napier, the Orator of the even
ing, was introduced. Mr. Napier said
he had for forty years attended on the
first of every January a celebration Of
the occasion which we we're assembled
to celebrate, and he considered 1T a
high privilege ITO do so. The speaker
at onee took up the discussion Of the
history Of Negro soldiers 0fsthe Union.
He stated that the record of the Negro
soldiers in the wars Of the Union was
tone of continuous glory, and not in a
single instance has one ever proven
t~traitor to his country. These old sol
oilers among us remember we'll the bat
tles fought around this city, and they
deserve our highest honor. They are
dropping out one by one, and we should
honor them in life and in death Dur
ing the Spanish-American War the
only city in which the black soldiers
received a welcome was in Nashville,
our own city. If we as civilians had
done our work as we'll as the black sol
diers we would be better off in this
country to-day from North to South.
You have a weapon in your hands that
is second only to the wee IS used on
the battle field.
Rev. G. H. Boone, pastor of ST. Paul
IA. M. r. Church, spoke Of the future
~of the Negro. race. He said a man
whose life had all been illustrious in
the past would naturally be expected
to, be bright in the future, When we
sum up what the Negro has done, we
must admit that he has achieved great
things. The speaker quoted figures to
show that the Negro is making great
progress. He showed that in the state
of Georgia, where Negro property
fell at less per cent than that of the
white mans. He paid a glowing trib-
ute to the old soldiers.
Mrs. &c. Napier read an interest
ing paper, after which several of the
gentlemen eon the rostrum made brief
remarks.
