Spicy Cards On Race For School Commissioner

J A S Poole B S Morris and T P Kimberly contest statements by Commissioner Glenn defending himself over issuing a state license to R B C Farr. Poole Morris and Kimberly allege board members cited were not in office when Farr’s license issued. Board members, including I S Hopkins and W P Pattillo, and Judge John N Fain, outline their succession in 1896 and Farr’s 1897 license treatment. They assert Glenn overrode the county board to recall Farr’s license and charged improper issuing without proper exam, while arguing state license authority rests with the State School Commissioner only after proper county grading and character checks. Public letter from W of Northen, Atlanta, April 4, 1902.

County licenses miscalled state licenses sparks dispute
