Response of the Committee of Colored Citizens81
81 Later in life, Armond Scott claimed that the letter he wrote was not the letter reprinted in the papers. He indicated
that the letter he wrote for the CCC acknowledged that Manly’s paper had ceased publication two weeks before the
election and, as such, the “ alleged basis of conflict between the races has been eliminated.” Sue Cody appropriately
concluded that “ if the other version of the letter had been published, even after the violence, the mob’s actions might
have drawn more criticism.” Edmonds, Negro and Fusion Politics, 176; Cody, “ After the Storm,” 33; McDuffie,
“ Politics in Wilmington,” 686. The original of the letter Waddell claimed was from the CCC ( image above) is in the
Alfred Moore Waddell Papers, Southern Historical Collection, University of North Carolina Library, Chapel Hill.
