Yoinq Female College Commencement.
Our reports from day to day have
given in detail the exercises that have
attended the commencement of Young
Female College that has just closed.
Now that they are of the past, and
looking at them in their entirety, it. is
sale to sav that the daily programme
exceeded in attractiveness any that
has been idven at any preceding com
mencement. This was to be expected,
and might he said to lie a natural sc-
qucnce following the most prosperous
term the college has ever kuown.
It is always pleasant to hear testi-
to work well done, and in this
ctake the agreeable opportunity
’ that the graduation papers,and.
xercises participated in by the
undergraduates of the institution, gave
of thorough work on the
teachers, aud time well
the pupils themselves.
I always he something in
attitude with which
commencement audi-

greVit world, t)\t appeals with strong
power to the sympathy of those that
havq passed from under the shadow of
morning he went forth, like unto
three year ota7bui even before noon
tide, ere the sun had passed tite me
ridian, while walking around in a med
itative way, reflecting, maybe, on
past shortcomings, . the end
came. As he munched the
green grass and chuckled, perhaps,
at thoughts ot his numerous escapades
and runaways; even in the .midst of
these reflections, he disappeared—
disappeared down into a deep, x aban
doned well on the judge’s lot—and
from it he came not forth alive; but
lifeless and limp the old family horse
wa§ drawn out with block and fekle.
There was a humorous vein, so to
speak, mellowed by age and experi
ence, in his make up A friskiness, at
limes, which comported not with his
venerable years and carelul training,
characterized him. It is proper to
add, however, that these attempted
youthful frivolities, like an April show
er, a woman’s tears, or an old woman’s
dance, were socn over.
When feeling his oats, which was
very frequently the case, he would,
without regard to tightened rein or
bearing bit, strike out on his own hook.
But he always kept the road. After
receiving a lecture, in which his ad
vanced age was generally alluded to
as a reason why he should behave
better, Stogy would jog along in the
mos» orthodox manner—unless some
horse in front of him tried to leave
him behind An episode of this kind
always roused him and pul him on his
mettle. He never-, in the history of
his many trips to Moultrie, failed to
kee p his nose in reach of the vehicle
in front of him, especially if the latter
had any provender in it.
Like men, he had Ins faults; of them
'wc will not speak, and, like men, lie

and convinccrl the large audience
that it was iudeed welcome.
The first essay of the even
ing, “Woman, Her manifest Des
tiny,” was read by Miss
Aiwa Dekle. It was a fine concep
tion of the sweet aud homelike duties
that make up the manifest destiny of
the fairer sex, and was well received
by the audience.
The charming little Misses Fleisher,
Carroll, Cassels and 'Winn rendered
“Little Orphant Annie” in a touching
way, that went straight to the hearts
of the audience.
The second essay of the evening,
The Tongue, Its Power and Influence,
by Miss .Mamie Jcr|^r, was a gem.
The essayist took occasion to say that
it came with a good grace for a wom-
to speak of the tongue, since pop
ular prejudice had assigned to her a
some time inordinate use of this mem
ber. Miss Jerger gave some whole
some advice ou the subject of talking.
At the conclusion of the essay,
: • Livic Pittman sang
charming little song,
“Going to Market,” in a way that did
her great credit. A pleasant incident
of this song was furnished by a tiny
kitten that iound its way ou the
stage, and while the sweet little
singer walked hack arid forth aud
sung, it kept her company. It gave
like, realistic air to the song.

cd by them to be an infallible

Wc give much of our space this

'andstriking. It took off the weak
nesses that all incu and mo3t ladies
have for seeing their names in print, in
a capital way. At its conclusion a
pun that embodied the names of all
the editorial aud business force of the
Timeh-Enterpries, was very happi
ly gotten ofl. The essayist may
rest assured that the Irtmo of
her discontent will never rest
heavily on her for lack of a Trij/ldt
of compliments aud may she open the
fountain of success as easily as a fully
ripe Ilurr is opened when autumn
sheds her mellow tints over the world.
iiittlc Miss Annie Roberts recited
“The Dead Doll” with a pathos that
belongs to childhood.
The lie*t essay, “Which shall it be,”
by Miss Eloisc Thomas, was full of
id sense and wise counsel. Whether
shall be drones or workers in the
world, jias the subject of the query,
and it i3 safe ^o say that from the pro-
fioucj' the reader showed during the
evening, that sho will take her place
long the workers of the world.
Following tliiii came the song,
“Visions of the Olden Time,” by Miss
Annie Carroll. While its tender pa
thos rose and fell there came to many
of the audience pleasant visl
the time when they faced commence
ment audiences ou the eve of biddin
adieu'to the happy, school days.
After this song came the Valedic
tory to Trustees, Teachers and Clas
by Miss Alma Dekle, which was
splendid tribute to the care of the
Lloyd, CL S. Bondurant, S. A.
Smith, W. H. Bibb, Cabin Carroll,
D. C. Blanton and W. IL Rogers.
It .was developed by several witness
es that the deceased had been a great
sufferer from neuralgia, and had been
in the habit of taking morphine to re
lieve the pain. About 10 o’clock
Tuesday night she sent a negro girl
after morphine and it is supposed
took nearly five grain* of the deadly
drug.^ Dr. Taylor- was called
in and found her in a stupor.
He administered antidotes. They
seemed to have the desired effect and
he left her at 2 o’clock resting quietly.
He gave instructions to a woman that
was present to rcmaiii with her.
Betwccu 4 and 5 o’clock yesterday
morning Mrs. Hutto, who lives near,
oame in to sec the woman. She found
her dead.
After hearing the evidence, the
Jury found the following verdict:
Georu.ia, Thomas County.—“Wc,
the Jurors, as aforesaid, find that
Jessie I«ewis came to her death on the
19th of June, 1889, in the said state
aud county, from an overdose of
morphine, administered by her own
frauds.”
The dead woman had frequently
expressed herself as tired of life, with
in the past few weeks, and a note,
without signature, hut identified ns
tho writing of the deceased, and writ-
tenJTuesday night, was found,
which she sjKikc of her last night
earth. It is therefore quite certaiu
that she look the deadly drug to end
an existence that had grown unbeara
ble.
In speaking of her intention to kill
herself she expressed a desire that her
baby should have her watch and
Lain. The child is three or four
years old and is with an aunt of the
deceased, Miss Lou Campbell, of
Quincy, Fla.
Coroner Johnson took charge of
the effects of the deceased and yester
day evening she was laid to rest. Not
many mourners followed the
of this “unfortunate.”
