To Colonel Farrow was due, perhaps
more than to any other one man. the
establishment of the state capital In
Atlanta, Instead of at ont of the nu
merous Georgia towns which competed
for the honor. '
In lid. when OenerAJ Pope WSJ or

on the train he waa met by Colonel
Farrow, who prevailed upon him to vis.
It Atlanta, and the post was aubss-
quently established here. A friendly
feeling between Democrats and Repub

which arose over the location for the
capital the Republican vote gave the
seal of government to Atlanta.

by the editor. Governor Samuel Bard.
On enolher occasion. October,-iM*.
