Friends Found Him
in Bed Last Satur
day Morning.
Friends of Hon. Clias. \V. Snell
were shocked Saturday morning
by the announcement tlia't he had
died during the night, his dead
body having been discovered by
friends Snturduy morning at. his
home in Oconee.
It is supposed that his death
was due to heart disease as he had
been complaining of pain in the
region of the heart for several
days.
Coroner Ainsworth held an in
quest Saturday and the jury’s
verdict was that the deceased
came to his death from natural
causes.
Mr. Snell was very popular in
Sandersville and when he came to
this city, which has been very
rare of late, lie always received a
glad and cordial welcome, the
favors and consideration always
shown to him being notifiable.
He was for five consecutive
terms clerk of Washington supe
rior court and the county never
had a more courteous, capable
and obliging officer.
Many friends here were grieved
by his death and perhaps we could
not better give expression to the
high esteem in which lie was held
than to quote the words of a
friend who remarked, on hearing
of his death that “the biggest
hearted man in Washington coun
ty is dead.”
Clias. W. Snell had his faults,
as have all men, but no one, ac
cording to his means, excelled in
the virtue of charity that “covers
a multitude of sins,” and no one
ever appealed to him m vain when
in need of help.
It is perhaps true that no man
in the county had warmer or
better friends.

In M&moriam.
In the natural event of human
affairs we are again called upon
to record the death of one of our
dear friends, who after many
years of suffering, succumbed to
the inevitable.
In tho demise of Morrii Happ.
we deplore t he loss of a good loyal
citizen, a true companion and n
steadfast friend.
We extend our deepest sympa
thy to tin* bereaved family.
He was a native of Germany,
emigrated with his father Pincus
Happ, when but twelve years old.
He enlisted in the Confedarate
army when only sixteen. He
was appointed commissary by
Major Finley and discharged the
duties of that important position
to the entire satisfaction of his
comrades in the Battalion.
After the war, he and his father
engaged in the mercantile business
and formed the firm of P. Happ
and Son. which firm after several
years changed to P. Happ Son and
Company and which now does
business under the name of Happ-
Paris Company. He made mer
chandising a success. After he
moved to Macon Ga., ho was en
gaged in the wholesale dry goods
business.
He was a most esteemed citizen
of Sandersville and at one time
was earnestly solicited to accept
the Mayoralty of the city which
honor bo declined.
He was a F. A. M. and belonged
to Hamilton lodge No. 58, over
which he once presided us Worship
ful Master.
He was for many years a mem
ber of the city hoard of education,
and at one time its honored presi
dent. Many of our successful
young men are to this day wear
ing the Happ modal, in his mem
ory of the happy dav* of yore,
and which through his munifi
cence, he pledged as an incentive
for good scholarship even after he
became u citizen of Macon, which
city appreciating his value elected

in which position, as the records
prove he took a leading interest.
He was connected with all the
leading interests of Macon at the
time of his death.
He was congenial and made

Peace be to his ashes.

Judge Covington Con
cedes Browns Election.
Judge Covington, one of the
joint authors of the Prohibition
bill in a letter recently to the Ed
itor of the Georgian concedes Mr.
Brown’s election as Governor in
these words, “Really Mr. Brown
lias Mr. Smith beaten at this mo
ment.”
1 There are hundreds and thou
sands of prohibitionists who are
satisfied with Mr. Brown’s strong
stand for prohibition and they
are not agreeing with Judge Cov
ington’s cry of alarm over the
matter. The fact is, sin ce ‘ r 'l
Brown is so sure of election,
liibitionists had better tun' 11
