Dr. W. J. Manly.
Dr. William Judson Manly, for
years one of the most prominent
citizens of Dalton, but who for
some months past has been in
failing health, dae seemingly to
extreme old age, died at 4:80
o’clock Friday afternoon at his
home in this city.
Dr. Manly was born in Dorsett,
Vt., August 8, 1817, and at his
death, therefore, lacked but a few
week3 of being 86 years of age.
His ancestors, who were Scotch
Presbyterians, came to America
with the Pilgrim Fathers. Some
years later they settled in Ver
mont, and the little cemetery at
Dorsett is filled with the Manlys
and their connections.
Dr. Manly’s father was a cousin
of Samuel F. B. Morse, the in-

enter of the telegraph. His
rother, Mark Manly, father of
tobert Manly, well-known in this
ity, first opened up the now fa-
ious Vermont marble quarries,
nd was the inventor of the frame
aw for cutting stone, now in gen
ial use with hut few modifica-
ions from the original patent.
Dr. Manly came South nearly
fty years ago, and was a physi-
ian of note. He practiced in
iouisville and Lexington, Ky.,
lasliville, Tenn., and other South-
rn cities. He located in Dalton
hortly after the Civil War, and
lade it his home until his death.
)n account of ill health he gave
p active practice years ago.

ers, Mrs. C. P. Gordon, Mrs.
Gertrude M. Jones and Mrs. Lee

nrs. Letitia Herron.
Mrs. Lettie Herron, relict of
he late James Herron, died at the
lome of her son, H. J. Herron, on
fhornton avenue, about 4:30
•’clock Saturday morning, aged
about ten days, but her age, coup
led with the ravages of disease,
was too great to successfully bat
tle with the grim destroyer.
Mrs. Herron, with her husband
and family, came to Dalton from
Newton, la., in 1875, and was a
well - known Christian lady, a
member of the First Presbyterian
church of this city.
Her maiden name was Letitia
Mc-Kissen, and that family is very
prominent throughout the State of
Pennsylvania, from which she
moved to the West after her mar
riage.
She left three daughters, two
sons and numerous grandchildren
to mourn her departure. Her
children are Mrs. W. H. Agnew,
of Chattanooga; Mrs. W. L. Du
Bois, of Louisiana; Mrs. F. H.
dark, of this city, and Messrs.
H. J. and R. M. Herron, also of
Dalton.
The funeral services were held
at her late residence Sunday
morning at 10 o’clock, Rev. E. W.
Wey, pastor of the First Presby
terian church, officiating. Inter
ment followed at West Hill ceme
tery.
The following gentlemen served
as pallbearers: G. W. Hamilton,
J. W. Brown, T. M. Kirby, J. F.
Denton, J. V. Lafitte and General
B. M. Thomas.

Rev. R. C. Foute.
Mrs. R. H. Baker, of this city,
received news last Saturday of the
death of her brother, Rev. R. C.
Foute, in San Francisco, of apo
plexy.
Mr. Foute was the first rector of
St. Mark’s Episcopal Church in
this city and was for nine years
rector of St. Phillip’s Church in
Atlanta. Besides Mrs. Baker he
leaves four other sisters well
known here, namely, Mrs. W. H.
Craigmiles, of Chattanooga; Mis.
E. H. West, of Rome; Mrs. Gal-
laher, of Atlanta, and Mrs. Rich
mond, of Memphis.
Mr. Foute was a graduate of
the naval academy at Annapolis,
and was an officer on the Merri-
mac in that noted naval battle in
Hampton Roads with the Federal
monitor Ironsides. He was later
sent by the Confederate govern
ment to Paris, France, to take
charge of a vessel being built for
the Confederate navy, but the
Federal authorities kept up such
a vigilant watch that it was im-
possble to bring it upon the high
seas.
While in Paris Mr. Foute met
a Miss De Kanzow, a Swedish
countess, and a niece of the Fed
eral general Phil Kearney’s wife.
A strong attachment grew up
between them. She, hearing of
his capture and imprisonment,
hastened to Washington; and
through the influence of General
Kearney secured his release. She
took him to their home at -Narra-
gansett Pier, where, in September
of 1866, they were married.
Mr . Foute was a man of great
culture and strong convictions,
and was an original thinker. He
is most pleasantly remembered in
Dalton.
Mrs. M. A. Farrar.
Mrs. Mollie Agnes Farrar, rel
ict of William Baker Farrar,
whom she survived nearly ten
years and to whom she was mar
ried May 16, 1866, departed this
life July 30, 1903, at 3 a. m., just
as the new bom day was being
ushered in.
Mrs. Farrar’s maiden name was
Fleshman, she being jthe daughter
of Simeon Buford and Anna
Fleshman who descended from the
Leighs and Ssotts'. both early set-;
tiers of Virginia.
She was born in Appomattox
county, Va., September 29, 1841,

and was 62 years, 10 months and
1 day old at her death. She joined
the Baptist church at Red House,
Va., at the age of sixteen and had
a bright experience. She was the
mother of six children, namely:
Lizzie Leigh, who died in infancy,
Mrs. Anna Scott Williams, wife
of J. Ollie Williams, Chattanoo
ga, Rev. E. B. Farrar, of Louis
ville, Ky., and J. K., H. B. and
F. F. Farrar, of Dalton.
She possessed a most beautiful
Christian character, not one of
pomp and outward show, but, like
her Master, she went about doing
good, especially among God’s
poor.
She led her children to Christ
and in the paths of righteousness,
and today they rise up and call
her blessed.
Truly a good Samaritan has
gone to her reward, and her
Christian influence will live on
forever. Her funeral will he
preached at the First Baptist
church Friday, July 31, 1903, at
3 p. m., by her former pastor, Rev.
W. C. McCall, of Keene, Ky.

DALTON’S ADVANTAGES
SIX TO NOTHING
Is What Dalton Did to Talladega
Yesterday.
Dalton is keeping up her gait
on the baseball diamond, and yes
terday she “didn’t do a thing to
the Talledega boys but roll up a
score of 6 to 0.
Following is the score :
FIRST GAME. Time. 1:10.

Shut out!
Cottingham!.
Three straights—make it four!
Dalton played errorless ball yes
terday.
Hits? Well Dalton has about
as good a bunch of sluggers as
any.
Scott is back in the game—he
played as if he had never been
hurt.
Cedartown defeated Carrollton
Tuesday, 14 to 0. What will
Dalton do?
Isou—well he can catch—throw
to second, knock home runs and
steal bases. How’s that?
Snodgrass gets all that comes in
left garden, and then throws to 1st
and makes a double play. He hits
for home runs and gets them too.
Neal Hamilton fourth in batting
and fielding almost perfect, he will
make an extra good player yet. He
hits well and steals bases some too.
Is there any team that can show
as good batting averages as Dal
ton ? Whitaker batting 475, Dil
lard 409 and four others over 320
and nine men over 250.
Dillard still covers 3d—he stops
all balls and base runners and
throws to 1st? Well, a Dalton
pitcher said when he gets hold of
one he knows the man is out.
General Whitaker stops all; you
can’t get one past him. He falls
down on impossible ones and then
gets his man ont. When yon need
hits to score men, he can land out
some extra nice ones.
The attendance seems at a
standstill. Come out and bring
all your friends and root for the
best baseball team ever seen on
the Dalton grounds—none ex
cepted.
South Pittsburg, Tenn., will be
here next Tuesday, Wednesday
and Thursday. We get all three
games, snre; so come out and
bring your friends and root for
Dalton.
Cottingham is certainly pitching
good ball these days. They only
get six or eight hits off of him and
then they are all scattered and
don’t amount to anything. Truly,
he is the “Rube Waddell” of the
south.
Kilpatrick is in fine form—he is
playing league ball now. He
handles every thing, and makes
some lovely throws to 1st base.
You can’t get a ball through the
infield at all. Keep it up boys! We
must win every game now.
Talladega being short a man
Reynolds Herron was assigned to
them yesterday. Reynolds played
the game and got all that came in
right field. He has a good eye aq
hitting too, and if given a fair
trial, will, no doubt, make a good
player.
Little Spencer will catch them,
any old way, single-hand or two.
And steal I Did yon see that boy
steal home off of Poole ? Just as
slick as an old league player could
have done. Spencer has also done
some good stick work too—a good
player, pitches good ball, has some
curves and speed and fools the
batter too.
Circulars to be Sent Out in the
Mails
TELLING ABOUT THIS CITY
The Citizen, Ever Working for the
Upbuilding of Its Home, Will
Furnish Them.
Believing that one thing neces
sary to the further growth of
Dalton is abundant advertising,
The Citizen is printing and will
furnish to the business houses of
this city a vast number of circu
lars, which will be sent forth
through the mails and scattered
over the different states and terri
tories covered by Uncle Sam’s

The Citizen does this because it
believes in the future of Dalton.
Dalton, with her wealth of re

resources patent to the world*

progressiveness. No false mod
esty withholds the statement that
The North Georgia Citizen is now
the best and livest newspaper this
city could boast in many years—
we know it; the people declare it
in no uncertain tones—and if Dal.
ton were not one of the best towns
in the south such a newspaper
would be impossible within her
limits.
And because the new Citizen
has mat with such a kindly recep
tion; because Dalton and Whitfield
county as a whole have so un
stintedly praised its efforts, it in
tends to labor unceasingly for the
welfare of the town and surround
ing country.
One of the circulars above men
tioned will be placed in every en
