Letter dated 8/24/1909 to James Bellangee from A. Freeland in Nashville, Tennessee. Freeland is responding to Bellangee's letter and says he has been feeling "that something was wrong at Fairhope" which is attributes to the bad soil and "frictions" among the colonists. He refers to the W. E. Brokaws and J. H. Springer as not being about to "harmonize" with the colonists, and bemoans the vast number of discouraged people who have left Fairhope. Freeland says that at one time he considered joining the Fairhope Colony, but felt it better to stay in a place where he could do work for the cause and not have to concentrate all his energies on earning a living. Still he feels Fairhope will "come out all right in the end.". |
