Green River Country, Hart County, Kentucky, May 30th, 1851. I was a slave until the Emancipation. My parents left me and went to the Good Land when I was yet a boy. My chances for an education have not been good. In that matter, however, I have done what I could. I have labored with my hands, taught school, and preached a RISEN, present Savior not a bad lot after all. I am now an Elder in the African Meth odist Episcopal Church, the stationed pastor at Springfield, Ohio, and General Financial A gent of Wilberforce University. With this brief account of myself, I pass to notice the Institution in whose interest I have written, and whose permanent endow ment I hope to secure. Wilberforce University is situated three and onehalf miles North-E ast of Xenia, Greene County, Ohio; surrounded by beautiful farms, and from the West, looked down upon by a group of heavily wood ed hills. It is one of the most desirable College sites in Ohio. The locality is eminently healthy.
