| Description: |
Henry J. Brown is a resident of Frederick County, and is a retired employee of the Frederick School district. He told me information on the Civil Rights incidents that were occurring and of the incidents that happened to him. For example of the time that his school was closed because there were not enough students, so they offered him a job on the Eastern Shore. The only reason that he turned it down was because Negroes were still being lynched over there.
