To the Baptist Brotherhood:
We are wont to fall back upon the
elegant term Our Fathers, when
ever we want to touch the deep
springs Of enthusiasm. 1t possesses
the happy power of linking us with
the glorious history of the past and
we are enabled to live over the STIR
ring days when men rejoiced to
stand at Armageddon and battle fox

not unlike our fellow creatures of
other race groups who fall back upon
the noble achievements of their men
of valor.
The struggle through which the
leaders and workers of the Virginia
Baptist State Convention underwent
to weld the Negro group into a re-
ligious organization that was to
function for human betterment, ana
race building by Christianizing, edu-
eating and organizing for service are
so kindred to the deeds of men build
ing the State and at times social
and political institutions, that we
associate their endeavors with war
fare. l. was not carnal warfare, II
you please, but moral, Christian war
fare They were indeed Christian
men. preachers and teachers of truth,
yet they were courageous, of stern
qualities, abiding faith, animating
hope, profound convictions.
These be our fathers. The founders
and fathers of the Virginia Baptist
State Convention, the promoters on
practically every beneficial movement
in our race circles, within our de-
nomination, that has contributed 10
our progress. They constitute

not be said of Richmond that it sat

Hatcher held its nose and poured

argue with a man whose mind seems
so immune and impervious to con-

PREVIOUS CHARGES.

In a previous communication We
charged that DR.. Hatcher was either
preaching what he did not believe or
that he was four hundred years be-
hind the times We argued that if
he were preaching what he did not
believe, he was commercializing the
fame OF John Jasper; and if he ac-
tually believed in the doctrine of IA
four-cornered earth and moving
sun" he thereby forfeited his claim
to the attention of intelligent people.
In his so-called reply DR.. Hatcher
skipfully evades the issue in its en-
tirety and we are therefore left to
draw our own conclusions which will
be obvious from what hereinafter
follows His reply, aside from the
fact that it contained but little in
general and less in particular, gives
one o. the most striking illustrations
of what we commonly call "a few
scattering remarks" for in the art Of
forensic evasion Dr. Hatcher is a
past master par excellence. This "re-
ny" reminded us of story like
this: Once upon a time mouse
crept out of his hole to see if the cat
was gone and the cat wasn't; scram-
blei! land the mouse wasn't.

EVADES THE ISSUE.

DR. Hatcher's ability to evade the
issue seems matched only by his
ability to miss the point in an argu-
ment he seems unable to refute. In
our article we pointed out that &C.
clesiastical robes and theological de-
grees and sun do move sermons" do
not 60 together meaning OF course to
point out DR. Hatcher's inconsistency
in trying to be modern in dress and
ancient in mind, or rather his at
tempt to blow hot and cold at the
same time, or. still. his attempt to
get down on both sides of the fence
at once. The learned Doctor missed
the point altogether.
And again, when we exhorted him
to ''step out of Jasper's light, we
meant Jasper's fame, having of
course. allusions to Diogenes. Again,
the eminent DR.. Hatcher construed
this exhortation to mean spiritualism
and mediums and a'that. When we
made the exhortation we had sub
tie suspicion that DR.. Hatcher was
seeking to exploit John Jasper's
fame and our suspicion has been
about confirmed, for said he in his
reply, 81 preached James Hatcher's
sermon. We wish to say that when
he thus arrays himself against 6as-
per he suffers in comparison and
what is mere. beside Jasper he
shrinks like pHnctured gas bag, or
