] Thereafter some progress in the development of separate schools inCincinnati was noted. By 1855 the Board of Education of that city hadestablished four public schools for the instruction of Negro youths. The colored pupils were showing their appreciation by regularattendance, manly deportment, and rapid progress in the acquisition ofknowledge. Speaking of these Negroes in 1855, John P. Foote said thatthey shared with the white citizens that respect for education, and the diffusion of knowledg...e, which has ever been one of their"characteristics, " and that they had, therefore, been more generallyintelligent than free persons of color not only in other States but inall other parts of the world.
