and grand master Of the Masons u,
there in Pennsylvania. He had beer
down with friends in Florida, and wal
escorted to the stable by DR.. r. A. Grant
Of Mt. Zion A. N. E. church. It was 9
pleasure to see him and be with him
We rode that seaboard horse to savan
nah, where we got of and had a fine
time. He preached q funeral, and ]
went to call on Rev. P. W. wrenn, for.
merly of Mississippi, but now pastoring
large Baptist church in town. DR..
Wrenn was sick in bed, and his wife
was ailing, but I met them, had supper
there, and then out to the Georgia State
college to have a chat with DR.. R. R.
Wright, and found three wrights in
bed, r. R. Wright, Nos. /, 2 and 8. The

Only a day was spent in Savannah,
and then got myself together and
pulled over to Denmark, whsss-it has
been my pleasure to spend 4 few hours

treasurer Of Tuskegee Institute; Mrs.
Jessie orsey-Green, Of Detroit, Mich,
and several others. 1t was q fine meet

started, and then came in Prof. Martin
A Menafee, the treasurer. Miss Wright
died, early, but she had put down well
the foundation, and the monument
which she erected is being kept up by
Prof. Martin A. Menafee. He is de-
voted to the work, and his love and de-
votion for it often causes him to be mis-
but, believe me, he Is going
right on and is some businessman.

Great things are being done in South
and while I have been here
