Terrell. In on« of the moot notable gatherings ever aeeembled In Georgia near 300 splendid men, representing every walk of life, gathered about the banquet board In the Piedmont Hotel Thureday evening to pay generoue and sponta neoua honor to the etate'a retiring chief executive, Joseph M. Terrell. Looking down the long tables one saw representative men from every part of the state, and representing al most every county. For the nonce all wounds and scars of political stress were laid aside, and men gave to the man who had steered the ship of state for almost five years the glowing eu logies of genuine esteem and affection. No banquet was ever better planned, more perfectly served or freer from the elements that sometimes make such occasions tiresome. The main rotunda and the great dining hall were pro fusely and beautifully decorated with flags and bunting. Flowers for Mrs. Tsrrell. And the speakers In their words of hearty commendation ran all the gamut of human emotion, now moving from whlmnloal humor to deep and tender pathos. But nothing seemed to touch the govornor so profoundly as when Toesti.aster John M. Hinton, in opening the evening, paid exquisite tribute to the love, the helpfulness and the devotion of the governor’s wife, and said that though she was denied the pleasure of being present, a great and fragrant bouquet of roses had gone to her from those who had gathered there. At the southern end of the dining hall the table of the guest of honor was placed, facing ths others. At this ■ table were: Governor Terrell, John M. Slaton, Dr. W. IV. Landrum, Captain J. W. English, Captain H. J. Lowry, General W. H. Edgerly, J. It. Terrell, ■Hamilton McWhorter, Professor M. L. - Brittain, Attorney General John C. ■ Hart; Dr, John E. White, Samuel In man, J. K. Orr, P.

The tenor of t lie post-prandial ad dresses was a tribute not to much to the governor and the man who had served hi* state so long and faithfully, but to the Southern gentleman, the loyal friend and the soon-to-be •"state’s most distinguished private cltlxen." Toastmaster Slaton, in his few Intro ductory remarks, said that the occa sion was proof of Dr. Humu*»l John son's assertion that friendship Is the noblest of pleasures. Hegret was felt that Judge Joseph R. Lamar, of Augusta, was prevented from attending by illness, but his ex cellent paper on "Governor Terrell’s Administration" was rend With fine ef fect by Professor M. L. Brittain. It was a serious treatment of the gov ernor's administration for five years. Unquestionably the hit of the even ing was the "Personal Reminiscence" of Judge A. J. Hinton, the venerable ordinary of Meriwether, the governor’s home county, for over thirty years. It was tilled with homely humor and the tenderest of sentiments, and Judge Hinton was Interrupted many times by the applause and bursts of hearty laughter. So personal allusion to the governor's early struggles won such prolonged mirth as the Incident of his first case. An old farmer employed him to sue for a hog, and a verdict of $fl was rendered. The governor generously turned over fl to his client, .who, ns he slipped the money Into his pocket, said: "flay, bud, whoso hog was that any way?" Drink to Hoalth In Water. Dr. John K. Whlto’a tribute to "A Southern Gentleman'' was an exquisite R rose poem. Dr, White said that the onored guest of the evening was a man without bitterness or resentment, a loyal friend, a Just foe, and one who carried with him always sunshine—the highest evidence of a Southern gentle man. He closed with a beautiful reference to the Chattahoochee, whose waters were tho only beverage of the evening, and a toast was drunk to the governor, standing. Loving Cup Presented. With Hon. P. A. Stovall’s personal tribute be presented to the governor a handsome silver loving cup os a slight testimonial of the occasion and of the lovo and esteem of those present. As tho handsome cup was placed In front of the governor, his eyes filled with tears, and the great hall shook with the applause. Fearful that his emotions would over come him. Governor Terrell had placed his remarks on paper. His brief speech was deeply appreciative of the tributes paid him, and he said that it was com pensation a thousand fold for at} that remembrance held of labor undergone and of anxiety and care endured. There followed three-minute tributes of tenderness and affection from Hon. John T. Bolfeulllet, Judge Hamilton McWhorter, Judge John T. Pendleton, Hon. J. K. Orr, Dr. David Marx, Hon. Dudley M. Hughes and Judge Joel Branham, The talk of Dr. Marx was a poetic gem. Though the ban has been placed on mention of his name, The Georgian Is not content without saying that to the success of arranging all the details of the banquet, largest credit Is due one of Governor Terrell's warmest friends and one of the finest gentlemen In the land—Fred J. Poxon, of Atlanta.
