To whom it may interest: In view of the fact that tbiw winegef our home, has been misrepresented Toccoa in certain articles in the News of Dec., I 3 and Nov., 28, we deem it just to say in : the issue 1st. The allegation insulted of Nov. 28 that “ladies are by remarks of gray haired loafers, when passing by stores” and “that Demorest has more street laofers and tatlers than any three towns of Northeast Georgia” and other similar statements as well, are un¬ founded and untrue, and it .seems to us, malicious. > ~ 2nd. Concerning the personal standing of the two correspondents that involved, it is but just to say above the person writing the statement under the nom de plume of “Yankee” is unknown to us. Mr. G. S. Hunt, the subject of the attact in the issue of Dec. 12, is a sober, courteous citizen of several years residence among us. He has this week been elected by our peo¬ ple to a position of trust and honor.* / We feel constrained to make this statement because if re¬ flects upon ourselves and our neigh¬ bors inconsiderately and unjustly and feel we voice the seniment of the best people here.
