selfish manner TO the negroes OF the
East End. Or. Anna r. Cooper has

tons. its annual income has always
been below $1,000.
The work of the settlement has been
conducted in two frame four-room
structures which to the owner did
not seem worth repairing. In one OF
them were located the office. reception
