CONGRESS To all the people of South Carolina,' Greetings:I hereby take this means to thank you for the moral and financial aid given me, in helping me put,over the biggest thing that has evefv"?aken j place iff South Carolina;- vtzr The National Baptist Sunday School and B. V.. P. U. Congress of America. My delay in making this public acknowN; edgment it is not due to ingratitude on my part, but in my. zeal to correct the misrepresentation and mud-rflinging of those who have opposed ma- ever since I announced the coming of that great body of Christian workers, is the reason for this delay. The National Baptist Sunday School .Congress was a great success in ev-' ery respect, my enemies to. the con-' trary, notwithstanding. It is gratifying and is full pay for all the abuse I received, when on the other hand, I am receiving letters of .encouragement; and congretula- J Iyft' ' " ^? i .. . TTIPPALMET tions from our loading men and wo-. I men, white and colored; and especially ! from-the Columbia Chamber of Commerce, the greatest commercial body in thi* municipality, and from our Christian Governor, Thomas G. MeLeod commending me for the great meeting ^pulled off. The National Baptist Sunday School Congress benefitted our city and State in more, ways than one. 1st. As an educative agencyit gave us information heretofore undreamed of in Sunday School_and B. Y. P. U. j methods! The pastor's burden is made | lighter to those attending the pastors' i I ? ? * stnuui,-ana jrave need to those instructions who gave both old and the nimlt'i'i nu'tWU- nf r.hnrnh nffnii*ti 2nd. The mdral effect of that great meeting is still more pleasing^ You saw none of the usual parading"ot"the streets, liquor drinking and carousing. .Those were the highest type of ; men and women; they were' found at Benedict College every morning at 9 u'cluck, and weie busy all the day.? The testimonials giVon us by those in authority of our-guests, is suchr that makes one's heart swell with Christian pride. In every home where JJiese delegates went they left a las... 3rd. Then the sentimental effect of this Congress is greatest of all. Western and Northern delegations returned to thejr homes with a different conception of the South, and the status of the Negro in the social, commercial, political and religious life thereof. This was verily one of the greatest i meetings ever held on South Caroliall who helped to make it a success. To-those who opposed me; and who still oppose me, my prayer is: "Father forgive them for they know not, what they do." J. C.* White, Columbia, S. .C.
