No Miss Melanctha, you see I am a colored
man myself and I ain't sorry, and I want to see the colored people
being good and careful and always honest and living always just
as regular as can be, and I am sure Miss Melanctha, that that way
everybody can have a good time, and be happy and keep right and be
busy, and not always have to be doing bad things for new ways to get
excited. Yes Miss Melanctha, I certainly do like everything to be
good, and quiet, and I certainly do think that is the best way for all
us colored people. No, Miss Melanctha too, I don't mean this except
only just the way I say it. I ain't got any other meaning Miss
Melanctha, and it's that what I mean when I am saying about being
really good. It ain't Miss Melanctha to be pious and not liking every
kind of people, and I don't say ever Miss Melanctha that when other
kind of people come regular into your life you shouldn't want to know
them always. What I mean Miss Melanctha by what I am always saying
is, you shouldn't try to know everybody just to run around and get
excited. It's that kind of way of doing that I hate so always Miss
Melanctha, and that is so bad for all us colored people. I don't know
as you understand now any better what I mean by what I was just saying
to you. But you certainly do know now Miss Melanctha, that I always
mean it what I say when I am talking."
"Yes I certainly do understand you when you talk so Dr.
