Dear Mrs. Garner,

This is to confirm the date of Sunday
afternoon, March 24th, at 4 P. M. for
my coming to Newark with Mr. Meltzer
for the panel on THE PICTORIAL HISTORY
OF THE NEGRO IN AMERICA. I am delighted
to again be visiting your city where I
have pleasant memories of past programs
I have given there.

Dear Mr. Hughes:

I am sure you couldn't help but sense the
deep affection in which you are held by members of our group.
What you did for us yesterday in coming to Newark and in
speaking so beautifully is beyond my ability to thank you
for adequately.

Believe me, however, we are aware of how
deeply we are in your debt - not only for giving up your
Sunday afternoon so graciously - but for being the kind of
person you are, and for continuing to enrich us all with
your great gifts.

There were many who felt that the meeting
was cut off too soon, and wanted to hear and to discuss much,
much more. We do hope you will come again sometime.

Please accept the sincere thanks of all
of us.

My dear Mr. Hughes:

Now that you have come and gone, it is my pleasure
to tell you just how much we enjoyed your coming.
Personally, I was very much impressed with the
occasion which you made a success; as for the
community, many individuals have voiced a similar
opinion.

We were happy that your coming was witnessed by
an interracial group. I am sure that the inspir-
ation that you gave will serve to lift Miami much
along the way which she is now attempting to go.
Although your stay was a very short one, we believe
that you have noticed the progress which is being
made. Our city is no longer referred to as "Your-
Ami", but with a great deal of pride, everyone
calls it "Mi-Ami".

With the sincerest sort of thanks for your services,
we are,

ETG/b
