The Glendale paper mills, located fire
miles from Atlanta, were destroyed by

$25,000, with only $5,500 insurance. The
property belonged to Messrs. W. A. Hemp

The Death Boll.
Death of Miss Leila Echols.
Miss Leila Echols died at the home of
her mother, in Midway, on Monday night
the 8 th of Jwue, after only a few days of
pinaful and intense suffering. Miss Ech
« 1 » was one of the most intelligent, useful
and lovable young ladies in this whole
community, and her death is a loss which
is keenly felt by every one. She was a
noble young lady in every sense —so kind,
so gentle, so pure, so goed. All loved her,
and all are deeply grieved at her untime¬
ly depth. May her pure and spotless life
ever be a living example for the young of
our community.
Death of Miss Addie King.
Miss Addie King, daughter of the late
Richard King, died in Covington on Sat¬
urday morning, June 6 , 1885, after a long
and painitil illness, aged about 37 years.
Mis* King had been an invalid for many
years, but she bore her afflictions patiently,
and nevercomplained of her a iffering. She
was a member of the Methodist church,
and her many Christian virtues were man¬
ifest iu her every-day life. Hers was
a pure and spotless life, and she has now
gone to reap her eternal reward.
Death of Mr. Joseph Griffin.
Mr Joseph Griffin, son of Major J. H
Griffin, of Oxford, died on Friday night,
the 5th of June, from a relapse of meas¬
les, aged about 18 years. Mr. Griffin was
a member of Die junior ela K s of Emory
college, mill w-.es a imuarkabty bright and
promising young man. lie was awarded
a speaker's place iu his class, at the ap¬
proaching commencement, and stood high
iu all his studies. His funeral took place
on Sunday morning, the services being
ctmducted by Drs. Haygood, llopkins,
Branham and Stone.
Death of Miss Irene Wood.
Died, iu Covington, in her 19th year,
on Wednesday evening, June 3, 1885, after
a few weeks’ illness, borne with high
maidenly fortitude. Miss Irene Wood,
the only daughter of Mr. and Mrs. R. K.
Wood, beloved by them greatly according
to the measure of her lo. elintse, the light
and delight of their household, her moth¬
er’s sunny and congenial companion and
joy, and the pride of her father. To them,
she was dear and previous beyond the pow¬
er of expression. Over their willing hearts
she presided, a* of right, a fair young
princess, receiving daily the homage of
their deserved parental love, and giving
back to them in rich return tire service of
her sweet offices. Never was there a more
winsome daughter than she, and never
had any a higher measure of true praise
than the separate declarations of her fa¬
ther and mother to a friend the day before
her death, that they had never cause to
scold her, and that their wishes were the
cheerfully accepted law of her life. How
dear to them she must have been, and
what human heart will not go out to them
now in lively sympathy, akin to the sure
aud all-embracing sympathy of the divine
Savior ?
Not perhaps, in the history of Covington,
has there occurred here a death which so
tenderly and distressfully touched and
saddened the public heart as that of tiiis
lovely girl, “fashioned so slenderly, young
and so fair." In character and manners
so engaging, in person so comely, a beau¬
tiful vision in our midst, we had come to
regard her as one of the cherished orna¬
ments of our society, and to assert in her
an affectionate proprietary interest. She
was our», also. Daily during her sickness
did the whole town make eager and lov
ing inquiry of her condition, and yearn
for her quick recovery. And when, at
last,
“ Death fell on her like an untimely frost
Upon the sweetest flower in all the field,”
there went a pang into every corner of the
public heart, and a cloud of bereavement
overspread us all. A sense of personal
loss pervaded the whole community. But
in the pain and gloom whieh, in this
providence of God, has visited her fond
family and all who loved her, there comes,
with power to soften and dispel, the pleas¬
ing knowledge that she gave her heart to
God, entreating her friends to do the same,
and went through the vallev and shadow of
death leaning undisma'-ad, trustfully and
triumphantly upon the arm of Jesus to
her rightful and happy place among the
an gets. J. M. P.
Mrs. Klmina Whitley, wife of Mr. Na¬
than Whitley, of Walton county, died at
her home near Walnut Grove, on Friday

Editor Covington Star :
Dear Sir : I am pleased to inform you that I
am sti'l in life and once more a free man. I and
ay brother have been charged with a great many
things that we are as clear of as a lamb. I am
hereafter to live a qsaet and peaceable life. And
therefore we want forgiveness for what wrongs
we have done. Brother is now serving for the
murder of Mr. Hardeman, of which crime he is
innocent. I kxnr that we have had enemies
ever since he was accused of that crime, and on
that account we want to make friends with all
our enemies.
I will close by saying : Peace to all mankind.
I remain your friend.

Observations on the Wing.
Jokcsboro, Ga., June 1 , 1885 .
Editor Covington Star :
Dear Sir : I believe I promised you 1 would
write you a letter, when I settled down for lest.
My rovings, and what I have seen, felt, heard,
thought, imagined and experienced, while roving*
are very interesting—to me ; but, I do not know
whether or not these things will entertain you
and your numerous cultured readers. However,
I will give you a few Jottings, gathered on the
wayside.
I left Covington for Conyers. I spent quite a
pleasant while at the Rockdale Paper Mills, at
the hospitable residence of Mr. and Mrs. Mc
Knight, I being the guest of courteous Mr. Wil
ie McKnight. The paper mills, under the man¬
agement of this excellent young man, are pros¬
perous, with no likelihood of shutting down, as
many mills over the state have done.
From Conyers I went to Stone Mountain. I
found the people there quite pleasant, social and
hospitable. I went up on mountain, on a cloudy
afternoon, just before sun down. Of course, as
you well know, the scenery is grand beyond dis¬
cretion ; hat, having been once before, on a fair
summer’s day in June, it was the atmosphere and
clouds that commanded the greater portion of
my attention and observation on this occasion.—
After viewing the motions, shiftings and changes
in direction and appearance of a heavy, black
thunder cloud, near Atlanta—after noting these
and various other things to partial satisfaction, 1
grew suddenly intrepid, and proceeded with my
friend, host and companion, Mr. Harry O dd
smith, to traverse the steep side of the mount) in,
via the “cut road.” 1 tell you, Mr. Editor,
“them was squally times—they were and had
it not been for the kindness of my boon compan¬
ion, who allowed me to walk abreast of him and
on the upper side of him, and, at the same time,
to hold to his arm, I could not have brooked it.
All in all, my stay at the mountain was fraught
with pleasure, and I will long remember my visit
there.
Thence I went to Marietta, the sprightly sub¬
urban little city of Atlanta.
Marietta may welt lay claim to the siguifican 1
nomen of city, for she is backed by whole.ouUd,
hospitable, high-minded, far -seeing, shrewd and
hightoned merchants, not 'he least ol which
is the firm of McKenzie it Wairen—my warm
personal friends ; by wealth and capital, which
is highly evidenced by its numerous palatial res¬
iliences ; liy it mills and factories—vide Check’s
famous flouring mills. Brumby's celebrated
chair factory, from which we get the wift ly
known red-painted, varnished, and rustic rocking
chairs, the hrgest, cheapest, easiest, and the
most luxurious rocking chair in America, or in
the world, as far as my knowledge and observa¬
tion goes. I need not mention the $ 1 , 000,000
Georgia Marble Works building, which is being
erected in the outskirts of the town, between the
W. & A. R. R. and the M. & N. G. R. R., and
near by the above mentioned Brumby chair fac¬
tory. This gigantic building is being put up
for the sole purpose of working the rich, inex¬
haustible, and incomparable Tate Marble Quarry
up in Pickens—that famous North Georgia
county. Marietta, which is well known, is loca¬
ted favorably (quite soj to health, and is quite
a resort, at all seasons of the year, for invalids,
who come mostly from the north. It is, I think,
the prettiest town in North Georgia, being built
around one of the shadiest, neatest and loveliest
parks I ever saw ; and she keeps abreast with the
times in a commercial, mercantile, business, me¬
chanical, manufacturing, religious, asthetic and
literary sense, the last of which is evidenced by
her sprightly “Journal,” edited by the brilliant
and talented Col. Noah Neal.
But I must turn my thoughts to the Gate CitT,
to which place I proceeded from Marietta. The
chief attraction there was the religious services
—faintly a la Sam Jones—held in the warehouse
of Messrs. Maddox, Rucker A Co., and conduc¬
ted by Rev. L. W. Munhall Atlanta is being
shaken from centre to circumference, by this most
excellent divine.
But I must pass on. I have already spun this
o*t four times as long as I intended when com
mencing. At present I am in Clayton, which is
my native county. I find the people here cheer¬
ful and hopeful as regards religion, politics, pro¬
hibition, government, society and “craps.”—
Speaking of crops, like the other places where
I have been, the dry weather and the rains have
had effect here ; but, on the whole, I find the
prospect for a bountiful yield of the soil very
flattering.
Jonesboro, besides being a dry town, is a re¬
ligious and an educational town. The Middle
Georgia College, under the management of Prof.
Ashmore and Mrs. Crawley, is in a very flour¬
ishing coadition. So, also, is Mrs. hield’s High
School in a prosperous condition. These insti¬
tutions are now preparing for their annual com¬
mencement exercises, which come off shortly.
At that time a grand jubilee is expected. Jones¬
boro rightly feels proud of her educational ad¬
vantages, and she always joint in heartily with
her educators to make the commencement occa¬
sions one of joy, amusement, entertainment and
benefit.
I shall remain here until the latter part of the
week.
Respectfully yours.
