Need for unity and amity between blacks and whites – announcing upcoming interracial marriage
Mahmud's Diary
August 2, 1912
Dublin, NH
A meeting for blacks was held near Lake Dublin. At this gathering the Master delivered an eloquent address regarding unity and amity between blacks and whites. He spoke of the approaching wedding of Miss [Louisa] Mathew, a white woman, and Mr. [Louis] Gregory, a black man, which is to take place shortly in Washington DC. The white people in the audience were astonished to see the influence of the Cause and the blacks were pleased. Incidents like these are little less than miracles; in fact, ‘splitting the moon in half’ would be an easier accomplishment in the eyes of the Americans. This meeting was full of joy.
