the counties of Bertie, Caswell, Chow
an, Craven. Edgecombe, Granville.
Greene. Halifax, Hertford. Jones. Pas
quotank, Pender, New Hanover and
Northampton, all of which bavo negro
majorities. Ewart said he did this to
test the sinoerity of the statement of
the Democrats that the cause of the.t:
opposition to the bill was that it would
give negroes control of the above
named counties.
Overman replied in a withering
speech in which he denounced Repub
