Mr. Jesse Lawson, the chief com- missioner for the colored exhibit, acted as chairman of the meeting and J. E, John- son secretary. The speech of the evening was made by Rev. Geo. W. Lee of the Vermont Avenue Baptist Church, who declared he intended to go to Atlanta and attend the exposition no matter what was said concerning the discriminations against colored people in that city.
