Mr.  Craft  enjoyed  the  confidence  of  the  British  Govern
ment  and  her  patronage  during  a  number  of  years,
filling  important  missions  to  states  of  Africa;  returning
to  the  United  States  and  his  old  home  in  Georgia  after
the  settlement  of  peace,  and  the  question  which  kept  so
many  pale  during  their  lives.  Since  his  return  he  has
built  dwelling-houses  on  his  own  land  for  the  free
people  of  his  race,  and  school-houses  for  the  education
of  their  children.
