ALBANY, GA.
Reading edition
BY MR. W.C. GREENE.
Our school is overrun with pupils this school year. I was compelled to turn away a large number because I didn't have room for them.
The people on their part are manifesting a deep interest in education They are trying to take advantage of the opportunity as it is given them. Many are going hungry to get a chance to send their children to school.
This last week has been one of profit in this part of the State. The people have been made to see their duty to the colored man more plainly by the lectures delivered by Dr. Lansay and others in the Georgia Chautauqua. There were some fine speeches made in behalf of the Negro.
Judge Hook was down one day and visited our school, and said that he was surprised and glad to see the rapid progress we had made here.
