Puri.ing this monch they collected money with which to put the boy into a re1 ligious institution of learning. Mpriey is very hard to collect these days but I. they raised $25. Of course they paid niuoJ* of?t>Ms amount.?-T-hoy-also put ' clothing and shoes on the boy and kept him in school the entire time while they hustled up the money. Nobody asked them to do this char' , itable work but they said to vpe, "So^jpe one must care for that bojii^ They also cared for 'he mother until" dhe was taken to the State nosgtfa.b So November 10 they took the boy , f into their owi* car and carried hiin to the Jenkins Orpl^nage home at "^Charleston, whe're he will rerfiain Until grown, nine'years hence: I wish we all had the spirit 'o help the^ suffering, let them be white or ' black, and the world yvould be much better. Mr. and Mrs. Witzel do not want any praise for helping t>he boy. But I want the "people to know just what kind of white neighbors we have up here. The Jenkins Orphanage horne' should be well supported by both white and I black. That institution saves boys and girls from the electric chair and makes good citizens, i They tell me some of the teafhers in that institution are working for $5 per month. .And have not even been paid off in six months.
