A LETTER OF VITAL
IMPORTANCE
\Vs Haigler Street
Abbeville, S. C..
May U, HI3G
The Palmetto Leader, "
131.0 Assembly Stree
Columbia, S. C.
Dear Sir:
Will you please print this letter
on your, editorial page,, as 1
wish every Negro in America (and
if possible outside of America)
to read this message. .
I live in a small town, butNhave
visited large cities frequently^md"
have Lived in both place ( long
enough to see and study the women
of our race, -There is a lot
of' indisertfct behavior going on
and have-been, for a-long, Jong.
tmn. Tii he mme frank. T am sick
an dtired of seeing the women ol
my race indulge in clandestine
meetings -with men of the white
race.
This have been going on so
boldly that it is impossible for a j
decent, respectable Negro woman.I
tW gi> out anywhere without being !
insulted and picked at by "white"j
men. They think I suppose that
ali Negro women are alike. Are j
we, the decent, respectable women j
of the Ncgio lhce to tolerate with'
such doings forever?
Will the men of our race forever
stand aside and allow us t.o be in-suited
forever? !
If n Worn mon nv Vtnv cnnMl
to a 'write woman or girl unbecomingly,
like the white men speak
to our women and girls, a mob
V. (J Li Id1?iiniiiLiliuiily?yp and
kill the Negro man shamefully and
u.sgraccfuily. Vet if a white man
approaches- a Negro woman, she'
might scream until she is hoarse,
but nothing is done for her. 'I ! j
r ion: tne heart of a accent wo-l
man, who is responsible? The1
things tnat went on in slavery,
could not be helped, but we are
living-iti a better age now, therelore
this conduct should be. abolished.
T j> iaY tKaT~the white race and
ih.. i in. u- in. .. wH1 someday learn
that "east is east and west is west
and never the twain shall meet,"
when I say "meet" I mean in the
way I have been.speaking of.. But
if they will meet, let' tne white
men understand not to molest and
i.Usult our d event wofrieri, The
Negro woman is the most iunprote-cted
woman in tlie woild and
when we find iKccnt.,' respectable
ami good Negro woment for there
are- thousands and thousands, ol
them) . ewry man regardless oi
color, should?diailoA and Inspect
thcili.
Thanking you, " ' . ~
I am very truly,

the. biggest and oldest firm oi--its
Kin.i In' Greenville to back him
V-L>igi;a 1. ri.it-rtakt-rsl he cannot
possibly louse and he Sees already
v...- fate of tile other fellows. So
hie is making preperation for "the.rip
and will r.o doubt see "Joe
I-i uis" in action.
"""But JifstTisTTT" what ""-another
ti.rgetic young man says who is
quite- su'iv of making the trip. Mr.
i.ifr.jy j.enharut is the most positive
^liuiv_-nrii_riLV4, i' talked with; -hir
says that he cannot loosj with all
the pretty young ladies backing
him with, their spLndid ideas, and
I ush. 'seasoned with plenty o;
/pup"" A fellow couldn't loose if
.'e wanted too. So he is "On to
N. V..-'- 'No Washington for him.
But who could talk.like Mr. Mas
n an.l Mr. Lenhardt when a
young man like Mr. L. Gr-F ranks
of the firm of S. C. Franks and
