The photo is Bogle's

THE EDITOR, Sir:

The Jamaican Historical Society has been following the controversy surrounding the photograph of Paul Bogle which appeared in an issue of JET Magazine as being that of Thomas Jennings.

We wrote to the editor of JET and he replied, admitting that the photograph was that of Bogle and not of Jennings. He also stated that he had run a correction some time ago. He also listed some websites which made the same error. We intend to contact these websites to point out the mistake.

JOAN VACIANNA

President, Jamaican Historical Society
