Editor The Bamberg Herald:?I ask space in your columns to emphatically deny some red hot lies of the blackest hue circulated against me a little over a week ago in the town of Bamberg and perhaps in the vicinity. I wish to state that it is now 35 years last March since I started to preach the gospel of peace to both white and colored people, and I am doing the same yet. I do not wait to go in the pulpit, but every chance I have I preach in the hedges and byways. The first lie I heard was that I told some colored people some time and somewhere that they must not pick cotton for less than $2.50 per 100 pounds. This I assert as lie No. i Vioii Vioovan onH haplr frnm JL liU ill 11 CI i 1U UV/U* V/ii heaven to hell. Lie No. 2 is equivalent to the lie the devil told in the Garden of Eden, and that was that I had sent to Midway, S. C., a coffin filled with guns and pistols to the negroes to have an insurrection with the white people. I am sure his excellency. R. A. . Cooper, did not think of doing anything like that, and neither have I. There is no man of color and there is no white manjn South Carolina who wants and works for peace, good will and harmony between the two races -more than H. H. Matthews. T am glad to say that I have stood for good will and respect between the races since I was a hoy, and no white man or black man shall change me from this attitude. Cod helping me. Of course, this Xo. 2 lie outranks the one the devil told in the Garden of Eden, and the devil himself is ashamed of it. Mr. Editor. T do not believe that a single sane white man or colored man believes it. Lie Xo. 3 was circulated last Sunday morning one week ago. that the Mt. Carmel M. E. church bell rang to call out the colored men to raise a riot with the white people. I have / been knowing the present pastor. Rev* R. A. CottiDsffiam. for fully 36 years, and everywhere he has gone he, like myself, has endeavored to preach the gospel of peace to his race and encourage friendly relations between the races, and anv who doubt this statement have simplv to call on Dr. Cottingham and read what the white peoDle have said about rum and who they believed he was. The / bell was run? for what is known eenerallv among the Methodist people as "the Sunday morning sunrise prayer meeting service." There are some hypocrites in both races who are no friends to either, who wish to see fusses and riots between white and colored people, but the better elements of both races, God helping them, intend to keep down such things, for fusses and riots do not help either race, but good will and esteem for each other will go a long way. The devil's imps must surely be ashamed of this No. 3 lie. Rev. Cottingham raised over $400 last year from one of his churches for the Red Cross cause and work in unsion with the white people, just as I have done in Bamberg county. All T had was swept away by fire on the 31st of January of this year. T thank all who came to my rescue, and the majority who aided me in Bamberg city or county were white people. An ingrate is one of the worst things in the world. I thank God T am not an ingrate. and I brand all that was said about me as finished lies. H. H. MATTHEWS. Bamberg, S. C., Aug. 19, 1919.? adv. J.
