idea that negroes will cceal chickens every chance they go get perhaps in order to make his defence more forceful the orator somewhat exaggerated the situation by makin making gibe ibe white peoples idea a manifestly un tenable one for instance he lie announced no that they the white people believe that in august alt you do docu here is to hold vamp meetings and etee oud alid while con 8 ff that many of the statements and pictures supplemental of that idea are altogether in a spi spirit of fatis fan he lie claims that suh buch faa an is harmful in that it tends to prejudice one race ag against gagnat another and clinches this conclusion with the monstrous deduction that it would ba as much of a f funny anny thing to cut a man min with a knife 11 further on ca mr henderson resorts to
