Vicksburg Evening Post, April 24, 1885

To all whom it may concern:

The bearer of this Hon. Robert Gleed, has been appointed by the Central Earnest Workers Association to lecture and improve the industrial habits of his race in the State of Mississippi.

We, as the Board of Immigration and Agriculture of the State, take pleasure in recommending him to the citizens, both white and colored – believing from information received from Lowndes county, that he is doing valuable work in impressing upon his people the necessity of a more moral and industrious life. We most heartily wish him success in his efforts.

ROBERT LOWRY, Pres’t.
E. G. WALL, Com. of Agriculture.
T. S. FORD.
WM. L. HEMINGWAY.
