which was a masterpiece of %eloquence
and sound reasoning. ALI the other
speakers were white citizens, includ-
ing some of the leading men of the
town. The mayor pledged the sup
port of the city council in aid of Tur-
ner Normal. A prominent member Of
the Commercial Club or Shelbyville,
stated that that organization would
be found rallying to the support of the
institution. Both of these gentlemen
suggested that President Jones appear
before their respective bodies with
his claim for the college.
Quite a neat sum vas raised in the
public collection. The consensus of
opinion on the part of the whites who
spoke, was that Turner Normal must
remain in S%helbyville, and that the
people of this community would rally
to it's support. The following other
gentlemen made strong talks; Rev. j..
B. Erwin, pastor of the M. r, Church
South: Mr.. w. H. Crowle, Attorney;
Mr.. H. B. Cowan, Mr.. ]. H. Boyd, and
Mr.. ]. e. Williams. All of these are
among the most prominent business
men in Shelbyville, All of them eX-
pressed the highest compliments of
DR.. Jones work here, and entertained
a hope that he might be retained at
the head of the institution indefinitely
till he might accomplish greater
things for the school.
Bishop Evans Tyree lectured Mon
day night at the college. 1t is useless
to say that he interested his audi
ence. The Bishop is popular with all
classes. He was the guest of Dr..
zones at the college during his stay.
A great times is expected here on
the 18th of July, when the A, M. E. and
the Baptist churches of Tullahoma
come as an excursion party and pic
mic to Turner Normal campus. The
Tullahoma Brass Band and their crack
baseball team will accompany them.
A program will also be rendered at
night.
