come at the Smyrna Opera House

BILL TO REGULATE HOLDING
COLORED CAMP MEETINGS
PASSED HOUSE UNANIMOUSLY
AND EXPECTED TO PASS SENATE
Bill Authorizes the Issuing of Permit
Signed by the Sheriff. Clerk of the
Peace and President Levy Court

The bill introduced by our repre-
sentative Speaker Hervey P. Hall,
to regulate colored campmeetings is
progressing most satisfac torily. The
House Monday afternoon passed the
House bill introduced by said Speaker
Hall, unanimously. The bill provides
that it shall be necessary to secure a
permit in each county where the camp
meeting is to be conducted to secure a
permit from a board consisting of the
sheriff, clerk of the peace and presi-
dent of the Levy Court, before such
camp can be established. The fee for
the permit is fixed at $1.00. Speaker
Hall stated that the purpose of the
bill is to prevent lawlessness at camp
meetings but not allowing them unless
satisfied that responsible persons are
in charge of them. Former Represen-
tative j. E. Hoffecker, of Smyrna,
also advocated the bill. He stated he
was foreman of the Kent County Grand
Jury last year that recommended such
law because of the many cases that
came before the jury where the
trouble resulting in arrests started at
campmeetings. Mr.. Hoffecker read a
long list of crimes committed at camp
meetings in Kent county, named in
which were the murders and disorders,
such that took place at Mt. Friendship
(Mudge's Woods), and Blanco, neal
Smyrna. He said he desired to make
it plain that he is in no way opposed
to camp meetings but thought they
should be regulated in an effort tC
prevent so much lawlessness.
