A HIGHLY PRIZED RELIC.
in Historic Love Letter Written a
Century and a Half A go.
\ letter written a century ago u a novelty
r Vadays. They are treasures for their
c iaintness of expression. Especially are
t ey highly prized when the original hand
anting. with its erasures, blots and phrase
o.ogy, are prererved just as the author
made them. . ..
Mrs W. IV. Gordon owns one of these
old relics." It is preserved in a glass case,
.md the bold, steady hand is very distinct.
It was written bv Dr. Alexarder IVolcott,
creat-eiea'-grandfather of Mrs. Gordon, to
his sweetheart on the ove of an expedition
against the French at Cape Breton in 1745.
jjJ. Wolcott was a brother of Oliver Wol
cott. signer of the declaration of independ-
M On this expedition against Cape Breton,
the once famous Louisborg was stripped of
its fortifications and made a mere village.
Its name is now changed to Port Hot and.
The Wolcotts resided at t oat time in Hart
ford, where the letter is dated. Dr. Alex
ander Wolcott! was the grandson of
Henry Wolcott, who came over from Tol
land, England, about the year 1040. Dr.
Wolcott’s father, Roger Wolcott, was the
first governor of Connecticut. His brother,
i diver, was one of the signers of the declara
tion of independence, and later on was him
self governor of Connecticut. Dr. Alexan
der H'olcott graduated at Yale in 17:51, and
in 1745, at tho request of his father, he ac
companied him as surgeon on the expedition
ngai:ist the French t Louishorg. He was
then engaged to .Miss Mary Richards of
Connecticut, to whom he wrote tho love
letter. Dr. IVolcott is said to
have bean a man of commanding
personal appearance and great talents. He
iras a justice of the peace and member of
the general assembly. His library was
large and well selected, and ho was accus
r >rued to read the ponderous Latin and
Creek folios in the original. He had a
faithful servant once—a slave, whosi name
was Primus. Tho servant assisted him in
preparing medicines for the sick.
After a while the master made Primus
free. Primus immediately removed to the
ther side of the river, and wn9 at once
recognized as a doctor. On ono occasion
I o was sent for to tho West Hide to pre
scribe for a sick child. Calling at his old
master’s on his way home, he was asked
the reason of his visit, and he replied,
“Nothing particular, master. I called to
-ay that I had told the mother of tlm child
that it was uot necessary to send so Car, as
you would have done just as well. ’
Dr. IVolcott wrote verses, some of which
are quoted. In addition t ) possessing the
love-letter, Mrs. Gordon has the engage
ment ring which Dr. Wolcott gave his be
trothed, and also a pi-coot tlie wedding
gown. The ring is a flaming topaz set in
massive yellow gold, surrounded bv pearls.
The following is the highly prized letter,
just as it was written 145 years ago:
Hartford. March IS, 1743.
Dear Mollt—This Brings tidings which 1 sup
jH-se. if you have that Regard for me which you
pretend, w ill not he verry agreeable—that I am
going to Cape Breton. Tie not ray Inclina
tion to go. but my ag-d father, to whom I owe
my utmost service, is Going, and Insists upon
lay accompanying him. Tis hnjios.sible for me
to Express the uneasiness f have on your ac
count. I find I Love you with a Love almost as
.-irons as Death, for the l’ublick Calls of my
Country. the Voice of Nature, and
ihe Commands of a Father can scarcely
Persuade me to Consent to Leave
you. and even tho Ido consent with my Lips,
yet my unconsenting Heart Dwells with you.
My Soul hovers over you as Loath to Quit its
Hold or part with the Dearest Object of all its
hopes and wishes. * * * * ,* I Con
fess there is Something Bewitching in that
thing call’d Honour.
But what is war or Glory, what to me.
< >r Why Reflects my ratiid ou Aught but thee

J.oug us the Vital Spirits move my heart
If in the Melancholy Shade below
’Ph i flames of Friends and Lovers Cease to Glow
Vet mine Shall Sacred Last. Mineundecuyed
Burn on thro’ Death and animate my Shade.
But why pretend to Describe a passion
too big for words. If you nave felt what the
vent,Love imports and the Dear Disquietude.
Ihe Kind tormenting uneasiness, the Care, the
b ars, and anxiety which a Breast filled with
i hat Tender passion suiters You may guess the
is esent state of my mind nndwnar. my Soulsuf
t-.Ts for you. t trust our Cause is just aucl that
we have indeed a call from God, arid if we go
: ■ Tth in his name and trusting in his power 1

v. ill be Done. * * * * * * *
What Designs God may have in thus Hedg
ii g in our way aud Checking our'prospects
of Happiness I know not, nor what farther Try
aiis we are either of us farther to meet with,
but ’tis worthy of our Observation that 1 should
happen to be Called away just at the Time we
had appointed for our Marriage * * *
but 'tis the Lord. Let him do what seemeih
him Good, aud Let neither of us murmur at his
Dispensations, this Disappointment may turn
out finally to both ouradvantage. * * *
Ply Dear iny verry Soul Yearns lor you

will give me opportunity to Requite, if not may
tie Good God pmiself Requite sevenfold into
your own Bosom all your Kindness and Labour
of Love. May he have you continuallv ju ms
keeping and Crown all your future Days with
honour and happiness. May he confirm his
Covenant with your Soul and finally admit you
t" the complete Enjoyment of himself in Glow.
So wishes and So I’rays your Sincere Friend
and Faithful Lover till Death.
Alex. Wolcott.
Dr. Wolcott returned to Connecticut
tmscarred and in a few week; married Miss
Richards, who made her “faithful lover’’ a
most devoted and exemplary wife.
GUYTON’S NEWS BUDGET.
The Day's Happenings in Efflnsrliam’a
Prosperous Metropolis.
The pupils of the Guyton school did not
let the first of April pass without creating a
little sensation in school circles, which
proved a genuine “April fool” to the teach
ers. The bells were rung as usual in the
rooming and the teachers, as is their cus-
I ton , were on hand at an early hour ready
for the day’s duties, hut no scholars put m
an appearance. After waiting some time
it occurred to them that something was
wrong, and an investigation revealed the
Programme, which turned out to be a big fish
fry at Tison’s landing on the Tattle Ogee
ehee river. While the teachers were tem
porarily upset by this unexpected change in
•he school programme of the flay, they
took it good naluredly, and on the promise
“ good lessons for the future overlooked
the lit;le liberty assumed tty their charges.
Rev. J. E. Wray, pastor c f the Methodist
church,will b'gin j, lie spring revival to-day,
phi 'h will he protracted during the week.
Rev. T. T. Christian, presiding elder, and
■ Bascotn Anthony of Waynesboro will
assist the pastor. Mr. Wray is one of the
youngest ministers in the South Georgia
conference and is very popular with h:s
charge and the public generally.
Several prominent gentlemen of Savan
nah visited Guyton during the week
and took a survey of the town and its sur
roundings, and it is said they were well
' 1 used and contemplate forming a svndi
ato with the view of making purchases
and building.
The chief engineer of the North and South
i hurt Dine has been in Effingham securing
ti e right of way for the road, but before
1 caching Guyton it is said ho suspended
' rations, so as to give the pooplo of Guv
n an opportunity to confer and make the
' "id a proposition. This action on the part
1 ' , orgineer is viewed a; a little unusual
n Guytomans, who have been led to lev

BETTER MEATS COMING IN.
Inspector Desvergers Turning His At
tention to the Butchers.
Inspector lies vergers of the Citiz ms’Sani
tary Association, i t his report of inspec
tion of food produce in the Savannah mar
ket for the week ending last night, reports
a marked improvement in the average
quality of dressed meats of ail kinds, not
withstanding the fact that a considerable
quantity of wid ern cold storage be-f ex
hibited evi lencC of at unsparing applica
tion of the trimming knife preliminary to
its transfer from the cars to the market
house.
rile iaspactor says that such meat, as is to*o

■Bfif the trimming . ntfe is pn.vide uly
u tdr-rgoiiig transmogrification from beef
into pork, as it is damped to a drove of

The inspect tr also reports the necessity for
the enforcement on the part of the sanitary
authorities of measures to prevent the de
positing of animal carcasses lu the vicin
ity of the city, aud the removal of
a number of cows which have die! in the
bog to the westward of the Kiser farm,
south of the city. He reports a large num
ber of carcasses now in dangerous prox

rotting nnd freighting the atmosphere with
a most offensive effluvium.
