Not more than 100 or 150 can be together at L. and places in the three counties I went through where are any accommodations for teachers and schools Lawrenceville & Clarksville. A teacher c could find board in a colored family at Boydton, but not a house to be had - so goes the world - At L. I saw the deputy sherif I was told of the Co, Mr. Haskins marched off t jail for shooting a negro - through the hand - he fired twice, meant to kill him - also two men awaiting trial for beating a negro woman and leaving her for dead - and I learned of many cases of abuse - I would not have been surprised to read - Excuse Last.
