A dispatch to the News ftom Thorn-)
A Thom.asville Boy at Black-
shear.
Mr. R. G. Mitchell, Jr., has just
closed a term, as Principal of the
Blackshear Academy. The Black-
shear Times, in noticing the com
mencement says:
“The nearly four hundred persons
who nttended the entertainment at
the Strickland Hall, on Friday night
of Blackshenr’s Public School,
charge of Mr. K. G. Mitchell, Jr.,
did honor to themselves in illustrat
ing by their presence that this is a
land where “instruction is greatly
prized.” All did well. Tlrerc was
not a balk or a failure. From the
oldest to the youngest, was a success,
and wo first congratulate Blackshear
on the promise of her children; Mr.
Mitchell on the result of his untiring
efforts, and tho faithful performance
of his duties.
“Early in the day the school had
heen passed through the ordeal of a
thorough examination in the diflcrcnt
branches of study ; and Mr. Mitchell
and hi.s children have a right to bo
elated at the result. The session that
closed with last week, as announced
hy Mr. Mitchell at the footlights,
commends our teacher to the approv
al and “well done” of our town, and
when the hour for saying ‘good by’
comes Mr. Mitchell will carry with
hint tlie regard and esteem of our
people, "j
