THE APPEAL. JT3ST
Ought to Read the Bible.
(Chicago Defender.)
The Lower Branch of the State Leg
islature of South Carolina passed a
bill prohibiting white people from
teaching us anything except the Bible.
Now if they will only pass a law mak
ing it compulsory for the white people
to read the Bible, they might gain
something by absorption and we
wouldn't be the sufferers after alL.
There are some things in the Bible
that even South Caarolinans could
read with profit. For instance, "Thou
shalt not kill."

coward, and without, the liar. Whither? To death?
Amen 1 Welcome dark sleep i
Whither? To life? But not this life, dear God, not this. Let
the cup pass from us, tempt us not beyond our strength, for there is
that clamoring and clawing within, to whose voice we would not listen,
yet shudder lest we must, and it is red, Ah! God! It is a red and
awful shape.
