PICKENS-GILLENWATER.
Miss Jennie Irene Pickens, of this
city, and Mr. Joseph R. Gillenwater, of
Selma, Ala.. were married on last Sat
urday evening by Rev. J. M. Gable.
The bride is the daughter of Mr. and
Mrs. G. A. Pickens, and is a very beau
tiful young lady and of a most estima
ble family. |
The groom has veen in onr city but a‘
few weeks but is well-known to the |
family, and is an industrious mechanie. I
Our best wishes for happiness and
prosperity ! l
There is no greater charity than the
sort which consists in withholding
words, in keeping back harsh judg
ments, in abstaicing from speech, if to
gpeak is to condemn. Such charity
hears the tale of slander, but does not
repeat it; listens in silence, but for
bears comment ; then locks the vapleas
ant secret up in the very depths of the
heart. Silence can still every rumor;
it is epeech that keeps a story alive and
dends it vigor.
The automobile aceidents are multj
plying in number and horror, The
chief causes do not seem to be inexperi
ence and machinery breaks 8o much as
the speed mania and reckless lack of
care. Many of tha worst accidents
have occurred with trained and expert
chauffeurs who have learned to laugh
at danger instead of avoiding it, and it
is daily becoming apparent that the
chief peril of the automobile is the
reckleseness it breeds.
BADLY TREATED, :
Railroad Commissioner Joseph M.
Brown was Wednesday suspended fromn
office by Gov. Smith, and Hoo. 8. G.
McLendoun, of Thomasville, was ap
pointed railroad commissioner in his
stead for Mr, Brown’s unexpired term,
wnich ends Oectober 15th next. This
action camie as a big surprise at the
close of the legisiative session and upon
‘the organization of the new Kailroad
Commisdion whieh has just been pro
vided for. Gov. Smith gives no reason
whatever for his action, nor will he;
make public his reasons at this time.i
The section of the code relating to the |
‘matter provides that reasons shall be
given to the General Assembly, and it
is said that the Governor will give his ‘
reasons to that body at its next session. ‘

DEATH OF MR. GEORGE H. CAMP.
George Hull Camp, son of George and
Elizabeth Hull Camp; born in Utica,
N. Y , 1818, his parents afterwards re
moving to Sacketts Harbor, N. Y,
On his father’s side he was related to
the first and most conspicuous member
of the Hale family; on his mother’s
side, he was related to Admiral Foote,
Commodore Hitcheoek and Commodore
Howell, of the United States navy.
The blood that tells splendidly was
evidenced in Mr Camp’s character.
On eccount of ill health, he removed
Sonth in 1822, accompanied by his
friend, Charles Quintard, afterwards
Bishop of Tennessee, and located in
Roswell, Cobb ecounty, Ga., where he
entered the employ of the Roswell Man
ufacturing Co.. (Mr. Roswell King,
president, operating the pioneer cotton
mill in Georgia.) After fourteen years
service, he was elected president to sue
ceed Mr. King, and this office he con
tinued to hold for twenty-four years.
|So greatly did the Company prosper
under his able direction, that when his
resignation became known, he was pre
sented with a petition signed by every
‘stockholder urging him to remain in
office.
He was married in 1850 to Jane Mar
garet Atwood, daughter of Henry and
Ann Meclntosh Atwood, of Meclntosh
county, Georgia. She still survives
him after 57 years of wedded life.
Five children were born of this union:
George K Camp, deceased :Dr Walter
A Camp, Springfield, Mo: Mrs R N
Field. Kansas City, Mo: Sarah A Camp,
and Mrs John I' Brantley, of Black
shear, Ga.
Upon resigning his work at Roswell,
he removed with his family to Mariet=
ta where he since lived, loved, esteem
ed and honored by all who knew him.
He was a consistent Christian and a
member of the Presbrterian chnreh,
but he was too modest to aceept &n *of
fice at the hands of the chureh he loy
ed. He was generous to the poor, just,
fair and courteous to al!. Full of sym
pathy for the young he was devoted to
young people, loving and trusting his
fellow mman as few men do. His eon
sisrent Christian walk and his upright
ness of heart and purity of purpose, his
generous deeds, won him the hearts of
all, and Marietta mourns his loss
After a short illness he passed peace
fully away on Monday evening last at
11 o’clock, in the 90¢h year of his age.
The funeral will be conducted jat the
house Wednesday afternoon at four
o’clock, by Dr. J H Patton, assisted by
Dr. I W Waddell.
