William Ross of New' Britain Is Interesting Speaker | CRUELTY OF WHITE MEN. Injured Colwick —— Workman Garage Here—Other Items, Rev. William Ross, pastor of the First Baptist church, New Britain, 1ecited some of his experiences in Afr at a meeting of the Men's Dible class of Berlin last night at the community house on Berlin gtreef. He told many stories of Jife on that continent. He began his address by saying that he did not go out as a nlssion- He went to Africa for the pur- pose of exploring, pioncering and ghing medical ald to the native e has always loved travel, he sai He was born on a ship at sea He told a brief story of his life, saving that his home was in Scot- land and that he stayted out in life with the intention of becoming a doctor. After two years of study at a medical institution, he felt the call to go to Africa, to which he re-| sponded, as many Englishmen did. 1{e said that Americans have no conception of the Africans, judging | from the ncgroes here and in the south.” They are as two different nationalities. Rev. Mr. Ross told of the many ! changes which have come about in Africa since he arrived there. When he started his journey into the in- terior, the railroad extended for a distance of 20 mles; now the Cape | to Cairo railroad covers 5,000 miles. There 15 no place in Africa which has not been explored, he said He gave an outline of the history of Africa since it was first brought to the atfention of the world hy the Tortuguese. The northern portion was known, but no one knew what existed along the east coast, The I'ortugnese explored the east coast in the 14th centlry and, in 1454 the Congo river was discovered. Met Famous Explorer Stanley, the famous explorer, was in Africa, during a part of the time, that Rev. Mr. Ross was active there, and the epeaker had the pleasure of meeting him at one time. Stan- jey was an Epglishman of poor par- entage, who was adpted by an Amerjcan. Eight years were spent in Africa by Rev. Mr. Ross. | He said he went there in the late '70s, in company | with three other men. He and a| mechanic took the first steambeat | ever seen on the Congo, up that stream. At one point it was neces- to take the boat to pieces and carry it 300 miles overland. He paid a tribute to the early representatives of the Roman Cath- olle church, who did notable work | among the natives. These men set- tled there about 300 years ago and thelr fidelity, high purpose and great | accomplishments will llve forever. He said they lived up to the highest traditions, However, following the death of | these first plonecrs, others took their place, who had no such love or spirit of sacrifice, he said. These men sympatilzed wifh and came in contact with the traders and wit- reased some of the separations of African families, when the fathers were taken ontq the slave ships. ary. | crocodiles and snakes, an abundance | aligator drops the lower ja * be maved, he had heen Kkiiled, | |in all probability would have been | Samuel A. Fiske, pastor of the Ber- Cathedral Was Burned As a result of this cruclty on the part of the white men, the natives fost all faith in them and they tore down and burned the beautiful cathedral which had been erected. Part of the homse occupied by the speaker was built of the remains of this cathedral, destroyed 200 years before, said Rev. Mr. Ross. The Afffcans were strong for fet- ishism and over the doors of many of the homes, Rev. Mr. Ross noticed rude crosses, The natives could not tell what they stood for, but they were results of the teachings of the early Catholics and were what re- mained of their work. The Afpleans believed them to be signs of strength of she white man's God. Cruelty of Whité The cruclty of the white men at times was enough to turn the blacks completely against them, said the speaker. He recounted some in- cldents of which he heard, which showed this almost fiendish cruelty. He sald he saw a white man shoot at an African in a canoe at one time. The man was asked why he shot at the native and he replied that the African wap hound further up a stream where the fishing was better. The white man replied that he did not want the negro to go to that| place The speaker récounted an instance ' where some white men had chained | geveral natives together and then| thrown them into a river. A steam- hoat patrolling the river stopped at this settlement in order to see that everything was progressing smooth- lv and that there was no trouble. They dropped anchor and were | about to depart. When the anchor! was ralsed the chain was brought up | with it, together with the remains of the unfortunate negroes He told of his intense hatred for | of which he saw in Africa, He told the difference between an alligator and a crocodile, an interesting bit of information.

He had been imprisoned and, put to death, had not the king's 14 wives intervened. They went on a strike and Rev. Mr. Ross was re- leased, he said. Tollowing the talk, which included the telling of several other experi- ences, a social hour was held Community Club Anniversary The first annual banquet of the East Berlin Community club, held last’ night et Pythian hall, was one of the soclal successes of the seaso and wgs marked by merry mnkm‘ good music and excellent speechel The committee deserves a great deal of credit for its work in provid- ing the supper and the decorations for the tables, both of which ex- ceeded the greatest expectatior There were about 175 people pres- ent.

Members of the hody refused to say whether its - opinion would be given at that time, but counsel for hoth sides expected it, Bishop Brown himself sounded the final note of his appeal from the verdict of guilty returned in the trial court, In a firm, resonant voice, the white-haired defendant re-af- firmed his doctrine of symbolism and assured his judges that it would ever be his “meat and drink to the the will of God.” The personal note followed a plea . for reversal by Attorney Sharts, the bishop's chief counsel, in which the whole proceeding was denounced as an “incredibie folly.” Lawyer's Agreement “We could W this trial with more calmness,” said Mr. Sharts, “if we could believe these heresy seek- ers were trying to do something more * than merely drive Bishop Brown out of this church.
