ville Branch Railroad men were
repairing Yellow river trestle,
Luther Johnston, who was standing
on the end of one of the large
pieces of timber, in some way lost
his balance and fell about forty
feet into the river below. The
others present expected that the
fall would kill him, but to the sur
prise of all, he immediately jumped
.up and stood on his feet again. On
examination, it was found that he
had received no serious hurt. He
was confined to his room for a few
days, but is at work again.

THE GAINESVILLE EAGLE, FEBRUARY 5, 1903.
Chestnut Street Church.
As announced, Rev. J. C. Otwell
preached at Chestnut Street Church
last Sunday on the subject, “Moses’
Helpers.”
The congregation was some larger
than common, the house being very
well filled with orderly and attentive
people, and after the song service,
which was very good, Mr. Otwell
announced his subject and said, in
part:
“If I don’t talk to the unsaved
sinners today it is because I want
to talk to the saved sinners; and if
I make a few caps today that fit
you, just wear them without kick
ing, for you know you can’t kick
a cap off.”
After talking of the leadership of
Moses, he said:
“Did you know that when the
people prosper they claim all the
honor for themselves, but when
they are in adversity they blame
the leaders? The same rule applies
to the church members; If the
church is in a backslidden condition
they blame the preacher.”
In closing he said, in part:
“God says, in trumpet tones, to
every member of this church, you
must get into line in the santuary
and prophecy? What is the mean
ing of this? It is, you must be up
and doing; get up of Sunday morn
ings in time to get the dishes
washed, the children spanked, and
get out for Sunday school and to
preaching. This is one way to
prophecy.”
Mr. Otwell is a live and character
istic preacher and will interest you
when you feel like going out to hear
him. A welcome always to this
church. J.
The Presbyterian Church.
The committee recently appointed
by the Presbyterian congregation
to consider the whole matter of
buying a lot and building thereon a
new church in our city, after mature
deliberation decided:
Ist, That it would be undesirable
to build a new church with money
borrowed and secured by mortgages
or bonds on the church.
2nd, That we could not build at
this time without using some
borrowed money thus secured.
3rd, That for the foregoing
reasons the building of a new church
be indefinitely postponed.
4th, That it would be wise and
proper for us to buy the lot at
corner of Green street and Seminary
Avenue and repair the house and
use it as a Manse till we are able
to build a new chureh; then move
the Manse to rear of the lot front
ing on Seminary Avenue and build
the church where the house now
stands.
Gone to See the Widow.
Luther Langford of Mauldin’s
Mill, son of ’Squire Harrison Lang
ford, left last Friday for Mertens,
Texas, where he has an uncle resid
ing. Luther will try his fortunes
m the Lone Star State. He is
energetic, bright, and a young man
of integrity and promise. His
friends here wish him well in his
new home.
Peter Duncan Forgot.
The stranger whose mind was a
blank, who had forgotten his name,
his occupation, his home and his
friends, held at police headquarters
in Atlanta, began to awake last
Friday as if from a dream and was
persuaded to talk.
His name is Peter Duncan, he
says, a miner in the gold mines at
Buford, and his wife and six chil
dren live at Gainesville. Joe Bell,
of 6 East 10th street Atlanta, is his
father-in-law. This seems to be
correct, for an officer went to the
address given and Bell stated that
he had a son-in-law named Peter
Duncan who was a miner employed
at Buford and with a wife and six
children living in Gainesville.
Honors.
Dr. George Brown of Atlanta, a
relative of Mr. M. C. Biown of this

Col. George M. Napier of Mon

advocate general.
Former Governor Candler is hard

None of these will be sent to the
printer until the legislature appro
priates money to pay for the print
ing. Under the present act only
the compiling is to be paid for.,
