He was the oldest son and was. after two court trials, hanged for the murder he cgium of circumstantial evidence agtdnst him. f The South Carolina negro, in the memorandum, says hwkllled the Wool folk family and ww» fkpedally suxlons trt kill Tom. In the Mast line of the memorandum Is the sentence; “Tom wns too slick for me that night, but I’m even with him as last.” This Is supposed to refer to Tom's execution. A great many people have always believed Tom gulltleek. and also thst his lawyer, John Rutherford, was sin cere. when during a ten-hour speerh in the court house, he exclaimed: “t swear before Almighty God I hel'eve Tom Woolfolk did not kill those peo ple.” In view of those facta and also the circumstance tin t Mr. Young knows the negro was about Macon during the year in which the murder was commit ted, the memorandum book will cause n big sensation. The negro was one of the most notorious criminals ever run to cover in the South. He is known to have killed uo lees than ten people besides the Woolfolk family.

The charge In a wagon yard -a Augusta la 5 cents per day per team. In thta wagon yard there are troughs for water, shelter from the sun and comfort# for stock against cold weather. A wagon coming into the streets leaves his team for a dny without water, making him liable under 8. P. C. A. ordinance* to fine or imprisonment. In the wagon yard* there are trough* prepared for feeding purposes. The food U placed therein and none of It Is wasted on the street. Hut when a wagoner feeds upon the *tre«t, 20 per cent of the food provid'd Is wastod— certainly 5 cents worth, all us which would be saved at the wagon )'&rd. Then there Is the liability of danger to and from an unhitched and feeding trnm on the streets. Me Willett re lated an incident which he witnessed a couple of weeks ago. There were a dozen teams cn Jones street, unhitched unattended And unbridled. An alarm of Are was sent In and the Are appara tus dashed down the street, passing the teams. That there was no damage snd wreckage to both the visiting teams and the Are apparatus is a wan der indeed. Ac it was a stampede was nearly averted There wore other incidents like this recited, to show the danger of such unhitched teams to themselves uml to other teams and other interests. Mr. Willett explained that the League had no hope or end to attain anything in the world except the beau tification. the sanitation and the clean lloess of the city. There was no hope of future reward In any way, except that ioeured In the knowledge of hav ing tyoiked tor Augusta Mr. Willett here testimony to,the effective result* from the ordinances already made laws at the suggestion of the League, He made out a strong case before rouncil and achieved a victory for the organi zation he represented, Tim A* IWkfSifVtAttUki rffiffjf* r»l i%> 4i4>J rn 099 4 #44449 to# el^lTna#^ *Mg f ( tf t art t ? 4#4»*fl 4 ’** I f | I«iffl|t|tlri I * 441 MO% 4T4»41f ««imt tka twat a# tk# t*gt*lrtoey fcosM a*d #*v# thrtr per 4m legislation Ay ram us.
