I ;5 Dear Mm Connee: > Well, we got us an Indian Sheriff I But, we got to work again in ^November to keep it (bat way, Mis* ? Coonee. I reckon some folks are J thinking that Indians can't hokl the victory they're holding now. But, Old > Wiz ain't met an Indian yet that won !! a victory and then walked away from I**, Mm Coonee. Ifbe did, he am't got ;? my of Wig's blood in him. Now, ;! Mr. Maynor and Mr. Edwards ran a <[ clean race, Mia* Coonee When it (Was over, Mr. Edwards shook Mr. :j Maynor's hand. That says a lot about ; Mr. Edwards, and I'm hoping that in 1' the foil, Old Wiz can say the same about Mr. Sanderson. But, we got this long hot summer ahead of us, Miss Coonee. When the sun is high, the H ; | tobacco ripe in the fields, and we're I cat mg out of our gardens, words might ?j git to passing between this camp and :! that camp. So, Old Wiz is putting ?.i some fbta on notice that he ain't gone to sleep, Miss Cotmee. If anything said about Mr. Maynor or Mr. Sanderson am't sounding right to Old - Wiz, he's going to talk about it. Just r " to warm up a bd, 1 figured that 1 would go right ahead here and talk about ' p Indians taking over the county. '' Now, it don't take no rocket scientist to figure out who might want to spread such rumors, but Okl Wiz has news for them We won that ' Sheriff's office the last time, and this time we intend to bold onto it with the hfclp of ill the people. Now, things J"' cotikl be better in this county Thais the truth. It ain't just the White man '?*' thats needing to leam to share either, * Miss Connee. Some of us Indians need to leam as well. Now, we have an Indian amongst us thats sitting in that chairman's seat on the Commissioners board and the Social Services board. The way Old Wiz 1 sees it, Miss Connee, there are some other folks in this county who have ?' been waiting their tum to bold some of these seats. Now, Old Wiz ain't ? . " ' - ? wanting to boar that there ain't unqualified Blacks in this county, particularty (una Indian There are plenty of Black people in this county with qualifications to be sitting just about anywhere theypleasod. Any Indian that says differently just don't know what he is talking. People might not like the truth when they bear it, Miss Comee, but the way Old Wiz sees it, its time for one. of our Indians to be thank fill of the seat that he bad, hope be did the right thing while sitting in it, and then move on to let another man have it whose been waiting since the days of slavery for his tum. Our people were entitled Tuesday, Miss Connee. If we're wanting to hold onto something, we best learn to share with others. All Old Wiz can do is drop the message and hope people do the right thing. In closing this here little letter, Old Wiz just wants to say thai be is proud of our Churches. They stood behind Mr. Glenn Maynor,and they're standing behind our constitution When you git the Children of God standing behind someone or something, Miss Connee,ain't oothaig you can do but count die votes, and thank the Lord for his many wonderful blessings. As for this thinking tank them LRDA boys are building for us, Old Wiz is thinking that people know bow to think for themselves. If they don't, they need to come see Old Wiz. But, Old Wiz is thinking that this tank they're a building ain't'going to go too far, Miss Connee. But, if anyone is out there that can't think for themselves, and ain't wanting Old Wiz's help, they need to give them LRDA boys a call. As for Old Wiz. Miss Connee, he does his own thinking and praying. Now, he's gitting ready to vote. Maybe, by the time we git through ( voting on our constitution, them boys will have figured things out by then.

Moms' Birth sad God's Providenoe (2:1 -9) III. lanel'sCry sssdGod'sConocra (2:23-25) Our kseon this wwk deals wife die beginning of the preparation for the cliddreuoflsraels exodus from hg ypt Wecan sethe providence of God from the tune Joseph was sold into slavery and carried to Egypt. Many tunes Sings happen or we go through trials that we don't understand but God sees the whole picture; and He knows what is best Israel was prospering in Egypt and multiplying. The blessings of God were upon them. When things get to going well, look out, the devil is lurking somewhere in the bushes to cause trouble. That is what happens in this week's lesson, but with God' children wherever the devil is, God m there to presert tkmmfimm haras. /. E^ypt'?,\ew Dymmtty (Ex. 1:4 11) A new king arrived on the scene in Egypt who was not familiar with how Joseph, with God's help, had saved Egyp from famine many years earlier. All that they could seewas that God's people were prospering and growing by leaps and bounds. The King became concerned. His concern brought on tear and with that fear apian ofaction was made. The king called in his advisois to determine what they could do to curtail this immediate threat. The world leaden of today are seeking advice from wise men to solve problems, but none are looking to the true problem solver. The world through the ages has always tried to destroy the people of.God because they fear what they stand for. We can see that the king recognized that the children of Israel were God's people. The devil can always recognise god's people, even when they are not everything they ought to be. Like many Christians today it appean that Israel in the midst of their prosperity had put God on the back burner, but God always has a way of getting people's attention. The king know God aitowed fr* t^on Ureal rmJ"nL M?m #?* mm* Wj (Ex. 2:1-*) The king bad onto that all nit bibw bTkiUed si birth. Bui Um 10 obey Um king'* order. During this unn there ?w a Levi** no who mamed a Levin woman of the houw ot Lev i God's plan to save Ha people now moves into action Out of this anion will coma the prieatty class. The Levite woman had a mala child. She knew about the king'a order to kill aU boy babies. She devised a plan to save her son. Mosee. In all probability, she did not know thai this child would be used tor God todeiiver her people out of bondage, but she agist have known he ww special. After three months of hiding the child, ah* devised a plan to save him by making a bed that would (lost in water. She .then nut it in the river where the Pharaohs daughter came to baths every day. While the mother was being resourcefttl, God ww using the same king to protect lbs child that he order to be destroyed. God can use the devil to carry out his program to fulfillment Tha child's sieter hid and watched I to see if anyone would And the child. I When Pharaoh's daughter did, the stster came to ber and inquired if she needed someone to nurse the child. Of course, Phiraoh'sdaughterrecogniwd that it ww a Hebrew child. Even the world has some compassion. Compassion can interfere with the devil's best laid plan gainst the Almighty God and His people. Unknowing to the devil (Pharaoh is a type of the devil), God ww getting ready todeiiver his people wsh Moses. Notice that God used the pharaoh's daughter to save Moaw and then turned around and used Moses* mother to raise turn. Not only would he learn about Jehovah God. but she would be paid as well, the most well devised 3? unless tod attorns it ?P> l"- luiKilOtiS Ol UK UuKlilV| vl kSad* the 1?nK.lkLaIweK aik^thtw H/ihr<nn okli *u- Ilahie n ?ti< utvi 11vif vw, wlU 'Jiv nvi'iv ? questioned whether he would kiU tun. as he did the Egyptian.
