Hannah Elias

““I have all my life made white people my friends and never had much to do with my own race.””

““I have no fear. I have done no wrong, and every one of the poor people I have helped is praying for me in the time of my affliction.””

““I have read in the newspapers that I have been [blackmailed], and I am frank to say that there must be some truth in a story which is given so much in detail.””
