During his brief visit to Charleston, Bishop recalls collecting his mail from the African American postmaster, and notes the hospitality extended him by members of the Chamber of Commerce, the Carolina Club, Mr. James L. Frazer of the South Carolina Regatta Association, and the Rev. G. R. Brackett, with whom he lodged.
