My fainting soul doth yearn
For thy green hills afar;
So let thy mercy burn—
My greater, guiding star.
Paul Laurence Dunbar.

Clavender Sherman Ellis
A versatile and promising writer of short stories, whose special knowledge of African life and conditions, whose unfaltering fealty and fidelity to the cause of presenting the African before the world as he really is, and because of whose rare devotion to truth and letters she was a constant source of inspiration and help, this volume is respectfully dedicated.
