Much of the Llme Gregory had hls audience laughing ut themselves as mut'h as at him, b1.1t he did not ~esllate to set them rot II ng In the al~les over tho ab•~.trditles of the govet·n· ment.

He cluirned that in hi• chat with the governot•, Barnell had asked him lo make sure that another Negro be sent to Ole Mi$~. bees"'" ht had gained a lot o.t much needed pOpularity rrom the lnl;t one.
