Wilson Advance, 28 September 1883.
——
- Prof. E.E. Green of Wilmington — Eustace E. Green. This accomplished man deserves his own post, which is coming soon.
- E.C. Simms — Edward C. Simms. Simms was newly graduated from Wilson Academy, the rival private school to the public Colored Graded School.
- Lucy Robinson — Lucy Leary Robinson.
- C.M. Jones
- Alfred Robinson — though newly arrived in Wilson, Alfred Robinson quickly found a place within African-American leadership. He was a Wilmington native and surely drew Green to Wilson on the strength of a personal relationship.
