Grassy pond, which is a lake covering sev
eral thousand acres, in the lower part of
Lowndes county, is following the example
of the Dchtahucheo lake, and is consigning
its waters to the bowels of the earth by a

eral times before. Seining parties will make
immense hauls of fish in a week’s time if
there is no cheek to the downflow. The Fly
pond, coveriug 500 acres or more, is not far
from tiio Grassy pond, and it had been
known to empty its water into the earth be
low also, and it may soon follow the example
of the Oohtahaehee lake and the Grassy

Last week J. T. Borough, Jr., was hunting

jumped into the river, leaving boat and
clothes on the island and swam back to
Johnson's island, then ran down that island
half a mile ond jumped into the river again,
swam to this side and went off through the
woods for life and death. A few nights
after when he had retired he thought he
hoard someone out of doors, and jumping
up he ran about a mile or two through
swamp and thicket. He talks about it like
it was fun, and said that every time he tried
to go to any house they would bead him off,
and that lus pursuers had a dog with them
that did not bark that would to sometimes
in front of him and then behind him. He

A LETTER FROM THE GOVERNOR
In Relation to the Arrest of the Moore
Lynchers.
From the Macon Telegraph.
The following letter from Gov. Gordon
was received Friday night by Judge Sim
mons: .
“Stateoy Georgia, Executive Dept., i
Atlanta, Ga., April 21, 1 ~>S7. j
“To HoH. Thrown Sinunons, Judge of
the Superior Courts of the Macon Cir
cuit:
“Dear Sir— On t.ho 13th inst. a proclama
tion was issued by the Secretary of State,
in pursuance of an order made in that
office, offering a reward of $l5O each lor the
arrest and delivery to the Sheriff of Bibb
county of Lee James, Fred Perkins, H.
Parker, W. G. Peril and IV. A. Johnson.
These parties had been indicted at the
Oeto'.xn- term, of the Superior
Court of Bibb county, for the mur
der of James Moore, and, though
months had elapsed, wore still at
large on April 13. The proclamation offer
ing the rewards appeared in the Macon Tele
graph. April 14. Within a few hours after
ward three of the above named fugitives
from justice were arrested by different par
ties, without assisthwe of any kind from
any officer of the law in Bibb county.
Their arrests were accomplished with an
ease and an - expedition which was remark
able. There was no danger, no delay, and
very littlo expense attending them. Private
parties, not charged with the execution of
process of the law, in a few hours succeeded
m doing what the Sheriff of Bibb
county, with the assistance of his deputies
and bailiffs, armed with bench warrants,
which he was bound to execute with due
diligence, and with the authority to summon
a posse to his aid, have failed in four months
to accomplish. W. G. Ford was arrested in
Warren county, W. A. Johnson was ar
rested in Spalding county and H. Parker
was, as I am informed, arrested in the city
of Macon, where he had been for months
after his indictment, engaged in his usual
avocations, without disguise or any at
tempt at concealment, under the very
nose of the Sheriff of Bibb county.
This failure has already cost the State of
Georgia $450. Comment on these facts is
unnecessary. Their simple statement is a
condemnation, of the. officer charged with
the arrest of these fugitives from justice. If ■
they ore true, thev present a case, not sim
ply of great carelessness, hut of gross neg
lect of duty; and I would feel that I was
remiss in the discharge of my duty if I did
not call your attention to them. What ac
tion, if any, should he taken in the premises,
I leave to j our better judgment.
“I am constantly importuned to offer
rewards for the arrest of fugitive criminals.
If I granted all these petitions the contin
gent fund would be exhausted by Oct. 1.
Many officers of the law seem to think that
there is no obligation upon them to use any
effort to arrest a criminal who is at large.
When a grave crime has been committed, if
the criminal is not arrested upon the spot,
the next step usually Is to apply to this office
to offer a reward for his capture. This is an
evil which is constantly growing and will
continue to grow unless some corrective is
applied hj- the courts or bj r the legislature.
“Permit me to say in conclusion that in
addressing this communication to j r ou, I
have no disposition to interfere in the busi
ness of your courts, or to dictate to you in
this or any other matter connected with
t hem. I may add that there is no occasion
for me to do so, because I know that you
are prompt, vigilant and able in the dis
charge of your duties.
“I am, my dear Judge, very truly and
respectfully yours,
“J. B. Gordon, Governor.”
A BRIDE AND GROOM SHOCKED.
A Small Boy Creates Consternation by
Objecting to the Ceremony.
Prof. N. Luceock was down in Allegheny

other had been solemnly asked. The hushed
assemblage heard. “If any man knows
aught why this man and woman should not
become man and wife, let him now speak or
hold his peace forever,” when to the aston
ishment of all a little boy ran to where the
ceremony was being performed, and going
In front of the minister said: “I object.”
The bride and groom, nervous and ox
cited, almost fainted. The scene was very
drairtatic. The lad was named Lees and was
adopted by the family and was very fond of
Miss Maggie, and when asked to explain
said he objected to her going away. It re
quired some time for the minister and bridu!
party to regain their equanimity.
