PROF. IV. M. AlLAIIAN.
A man, so deservedly popular at
home, should be known" to his fel
low-citizens everywhere, and so it is
with extreme pleasure that we in
troduce to the readers of The Trib
une Prof. W. M. Callahan, of Bynl,
a man of education, culture, char
acter, energy and ability.
William Millard Callahan was born
July 22d, 1855; received a common
school education; clerked in a grocery
store at Cartersville for several years.
Becoming dissatisfied, he became a
teacher in a backwoods school in
Paulding county in 1879,and he taught
continuously for twenty years, with
credit to himself, and to the satisfac
tion of his patrons. His health fall
ing he became manager and owner of
a country store in 1897, in which
business he has succeeded admirably.
True, he has not accumulated a for
tune, but what he has is legitimately
his. While he could, by charging ex
tortion prices, have accumulated quite
a large sum, he preferred to treat
his customers fairly and justly, and
he is proud of the fact that not a dirty
dollar is to be found among his ef
fects.
Prof. Callahan is very popular with
all classes, especially the poor, whom
he has so kindly and generously aid
ed in times of need, and the least
least criticism of his conduct among
the laboring people of his section
w'ould be taken as an insult. Long
may he live and prosper.—Rome Trib
une.
Prof. Callahan Is blessed with an
interesting and happy family, consis
ting of Mrs. Callahan, a faithful and
devoted wife, and two daughters,
Mrs. J. M. Pullen recently married,
