But the color }ine seeais to have keen drawn against tdm, probably in deference to the race prejudices of the many white Northern people who winter in Aiken. As they 4 are not accustomed to black officials at home they were likely to be unwilling to receive their mails from his sable hands. In Blackvllle, Miss M. E.
