pill.
Further investigation was made and ii
developed that all of her fathers ances-
tors were white. while the child's great

was a Negress, all of the descendants OF
the latter. however, married white men.
The commissioners endeavored TO figure
out what proportion of the child's blood

to be about one-thirtieth. As the school
had been practically disorganized because
of her attendance. ii was decided by the
board to suspend her temporarily.
