[Ads-l] Nominal ugly

[Joan Hall]

DARE’s first citation for “God don’t love ugly” is from 1899:

1899 Stevens Point Daily Journal (WI) 1 Feb [3]/5 (newspaperarchive.com), Chicago IL [Black], God don’t love ugly, dat is de reason he’s goin’ ter destroy de white folks an’ save only dose cullud people who flee de wrath ter come.
