Walter Black Ruffin, South Carolina He wasn't honored, maybe, for his songs of praise were slim, Yet never (new a baby that wouldn't crow for him. Black, the beauty of the class, discovered America at Ruffin, South Carolina. He gets the name of Lord” from his lordly mein on the rostrum. He debates whenever it is possible, but has never been known to bring out a point. He is faithful in classes and sincere in his somewhat radical views. He is an ardent supporter of Cole L. Blease. We will yet have the pleasure of seeing our friend Black a head professor in one of our leading theological seminaries. Member of Philosophian Literary Society. Chaplain fall term '12-'13.
