He is very prominent in town affairs; he is at present constable and town clerk; was elected to the state legislature in Nov., 1893; res. Bellingham, Mass. 9826. i. JENNIE LOUISE, b. Oct. 22, 1866; unm.; res. Atlanta, Ga., Spel- man Seminary. Jennie L. WHITNEY was educated in the town schools of Bellingham, Mass.; was graduated from the state normal school at Framingham, Mass.; has followed the occupa- tion of teacher, having taught in public schools in Quincy, Mass., and Bellingham, Mass.; is at present a critic teacher in the nor- mal department of Spelman seminary, Atlanta, Ga. A perusal of Spelman's Messenger acquaints us with the dedication of Giles hall, Dec. 1, 1893, erected for the normal and missionary departments of Spelman seminary. Miss Jennie L. WHITNEY now instructs her model normal training school in this hall, $50,000 of which was given by John D. ROCKEFELLER. This sem- inary is an index of the Baptists of the North for education of the colored people, where nearly 1,000 pupils are enrolled. 9827. ii. LEWIS EDWARD, b. Feb. 29, 1868. 9828. iii.
