Another one of his party stated, according to Uishop Grant, that a negro would not be allowed in hotels in America where whites are accommodated. Tho bishop said that "one of these men exposed his ignorance and the other misrepresented his country," for he, the bishop, knew the States of New York, Pennsylvania, Indiana, Illinois, Iowa and as far as California he had stopped at hotels where any other respectable man could stop who would pay his bills. The bishop claimed there were more black people under the English flag than under any other Hag in the world. LMshop Grant said lie would not go abroad and hold up the faults of his Nation to strangers, and to that extent he felt he was a better American citizen "than any man who would go into a foreign country and misrepresent his own by making such false statements, for there were twenty States in this Union where any respectable man of any color could stop in a lirst-class hotel if he wished and would behave himself."
