Dr. Rranscomb,s Comments
Dr. Riley's Estimate

Dr. R. K. Riley, former president of Howard college and prominent educa- tor. sadi: 'I regarded Booker T. Wash ington as the leading negro of his race and I think it remarkable that an ex- slave should have achieved the inter- national reputation he bears.
 His work was not exceeded by that of any man I have ever known. He was q wonderful man to have belonged to any race and as member of the ne- gro race his achievements were extra ordinary.
 "Fortunately, the effects of his great work will not die with him, but at the same time I consider his death ca lamlty to the state and nation"

South's Greatest Missionary

Mrs. J. B. Reid in connection with the work in household economies has frequently visited Tuskegee and knew Booker T. Washington well. "I am sor- " to hear of his death,'' she said Booker T. Washington was the great est missionary in the south. He has done splendid work. His school is a living monument and his death is q great loss to the country.
 "He always stressed the civilities in his teaching and at Tuskegee there was no ostentation but the teaching of simple, practical living.
 His wife is also an exceptionally capable woman"

 Prof P. M. McNeil county superin- tendent of education: The news of Booker T. Washingtons death will be received with regret not only among the members of his race but among the white people who are at all fa- rnlliar with his life work.

cause of negro education in the state in that amcng his greatest work was tho preparation of negro teachers for the negro elementary schools.
 Not only did he instill progressive ideas along educational lines but he preached morality and integrity as well, which to large extent they have carried out.
 ''He was the great apostle of his race and his advice to his race was always given in a spirit of concilia- ton, He has left a lasting monument behind him in the work he has already cone and his place in the negro edn- cational circles will be difficult to fill.'
 Greatest Negro of His Age
 Prof. Joel C. Dubose: Booker T Washington will go down in history as the greatest negro of his age and in his oeath the cause of negro educa~ ton in the south has suffered a dis, tinct loss. In fact, his place cannot be filled, for he stood alone among the negro leaders and educators.
 His work however, will live after him. for he has built up an educa- tional institution at Tuskegee that will compare favorably with any in the country. Of course someone will take his place but his equal will be difficult to find.
 "ln all his speeches including those ne made In the north he always con tended the south was the negro's best friend and instead of advocating social equality, as many negro leaders have done he urged his people to better their conditions by industry, economy and right living.
 'T heard of his death With extreme regret, for in my opinion he accom- plisned lnore than any other negro leader in the country to better the con ditions of his race along educational, industrial and moral lines"
 Dr. Branscomb's Comments l Br I..9C. Branscomb. presiding elder l of the Birmingham district: "I learned of rhe death of Booker T. Washington with much regret He was great leader among his people and had ac complished much in their behalf. As to the effect his death in reference to negro education of the state will have, am not prepared to say. but feel that there is someone, somewhere, who will take his place and carry on the work in the field in which he labored so faithfully and so well'
