Louisville, Ky. - DIR. George O.
Hall has chased them bugs out OF my
head and make them close up their
hole behind them, and then told me
/ could leave Chicago, after being
held there for three weeks trying to
get rid of them. This is indeed
great world and we have some great
men in this world and we are going to
make some more. for they are now N
the incubator getting ready to be
Matched out
| want to pay my respects to Dr.
George Cleveland Hall, and TO Pr.
S. H. Thompson. Of Kansas City,
Kan, and to thank Mrs. Ivie L. Stew
art. my nurse and her son, Charles
Stewart, Jr., block off Of the old
chip. 1t is wonderful how boy can
partake Of the works Of his father.
That is, he has many ways like his
father and is fine chap. But that IS
not my talk when | come before you
with this letter.
What have you done for the world?
am sorry that the last day | was in
Chicago | did not get to come in
touch with the press gang at the city
hall. Editor Taylor had arranged for
me to meet them, but J did not get
there in time to see these pen push
ers-the men who write the history
Of Chicago every day, the men who
can look at you and tell you what
you are thinking about, and who can
express your thoughts better than
you can express them yourself. ! am
sure that Editor Taylor thought if !
could just get to see them | would
get better information and be able to
do more work and write better. He
did not tell me so, but he made
broadcast hint, and can take hint.
Some of these men were willing to
enjoy baby sheep and lamb with me
and all the other good things which
are now mine. / came in touch with
the thinkers of Chicago, walked and
talked with them. Had the pleasure
Of going to the home of Rev. F. w.
Penick, and coming in touch with him,
and eating one big dinner at his
home, and then got to meet others OF
his guests. He is superintendent of
missions for the Baptists in Chicago,
and man of great parts. He is do
ing a great big work and is one more
busy man.
/ find that they are getting ready to
elect a mayor for Chicago, and | am
told that there is going to be a
heluva time when it comes off, and
all classes of people are getting in
one Of the lines, and will be on
hand to tell you who wins
visited Olivet Baptist church, at
tending a meeting of the secretaries
Of the various departments Of the
National Baptist convention and
heard their discussions. They are
getting ready to do some real work
in the National Baptist church in the
future. | am told that the presidents
are going to visit that point, and l
think it will be possible for me to
return, before going to the church
after the afternoon. President Will
liams and Pastor Williams will make
tour in the interest of the conven-
ton work soon, and you will hear
from him. He is one of the highest
paid pastors in this country, and he
deserves all he gets. He works, and
is not spending his time in idleness.
1t requires work to accomplish what
he has accomplished.
After visiting some friends and DR..
]. M. Trice, young physician from
Texas, but now a citizen of Chicago,
sent me telephone to 60 down to
Maurice Rothschild's and get me
hat, and his mother met me down
town and went with me to the place.
An So John B. Stetson was placed on
my head, and / did not put up one
cent for it, and then followed many
presents after they learned that /
was bound to get away, and that the
Walker business was demanding
