Mr.. Editor:

Mr.. Editor:
Will you allow me space in
your paper for a few words to
the White and Colored people of
IGlenmora and vicinity
First of all, G,enmora is the
best colored in La, in fact, the op-
portunity for colored people is
better than anywhere 1 have been
There are five large mills in
and around Glenmora and big
turpentine and logging camps
giving employ ment to thousands
of our people. We have twelve
churches with a large, member
ship; we have three large halls;
we are soon to have model SCH
ool house with six rooms and
five teachers. The good white
people stand willing to help rs
and the jifieschants of Glenmora
are liberal. The prices of things
are as cheap as mostlargercities
Mr.. Editor I want to refute a
false rumor that is being cirula-
ted among the white people of
Glenmora that the colored people
We're going to rise TO arms for
the purpose of doing bodily harm
to the white people and If you
will excuse the expression, I will
say that the devil himself never
told bigger lie. There has new
er s,een such a move in Glenmo
ra or the La. Saw Mill Co., and
should such a notion get into
lsome fools head to make such an
attempt you will find the best
colored people, and I myself,
| will be with the officers and the
white citizens TO put such per.
Eson behind the bars where they
belong. This thing comes to ns as
a flash of lightning and the rela.
tions between the white and col.
ored peoples are all we can ask
aud / want to appeal to the good
white people OF Glenmora and La.
| Saw Mill Co. to let us continue
this good spiritamong US.
i Your humble servant, some !!
years ago. came to Glenmora ani
began business and all I have
and what / have made, / made

Co, and ] say to you who know
me that mF intrest has always
