ot his place and the respect due to
those around him.[2]
The following letter and list accompanying it explain themselves:
BELOIT, WIS. Dec. 28, 1906.
_Dear Mr. Washington_
In answer to your telegram for names of graduates and former
students engaged in farming in Ala I send the following. I know
there are others especially former students but I cannot now
recall names. I will try to add to the list if possible.
I would say in regard to the Bowen sisters they have about 600
acres of land and look after the cultivation of it and some parts
Cornelia and Katie care for directly actually raising a crop.
McRae farmed last year at Louisville, Ala. the year just closing.
Mr. W. A. Menafee has 200 acres of land at Alexander City. This
he superintendents by two visits each year. Those marked with a
cross farm on their own land. Edwards and Barnes own land at Snow
Hill which they farm by the labor of others. Whether they and Mr.
Chambliss come under the head of farmers according to your idea
you can decide.
I leave January 3 for Denmark, S. C. You can write me there till
further notice.
Yours
(Signed) R. C. BEDFORD
