A SCHEDULE FOR
Kichland farm, the place bought and
operated by Hallman Sims, the default
ing bank clerk of Atlanta, was sold yes
terday at public outcry, on the premises,
iu Greene county.
The land, amounting to 1,938 acres,
aud all houses an the land, was sold to
K. P. Boswell, c» l'enfield, for $10,500.
Man* mules aud a .lumber farm im*
plemeats were sold at liw prices, and a
laage number of cows, which had been
adver'ised to be sold yesteaday at the
Public sale, were not sold on account of
the low prices for wl ich the mules and
implements sold.

Phinizy and A. H. Hodgson, who at*
tended the sale from this city, returned
last night. Tfiev went with the inten
tion of baying some cattle but were un
able to make any purchases ou account
of the sale of the cattle being called off.
Mr. Chas. Phinizy, speaking of his
trip to a representative of The Eanner
last t ight, said :
"Tfi j place brought all it is worth.
From all that had been published in the
Atlanta newspapers about this place I
was nuder the impression that
it was one of the finest- farms in the en
tire state, but I found it the most over
rated placo imaginable. It is true that
the place is very well stocked, but the
stock is nothing like what has been
claimed in the newspaper acoounts of
the farm,”
There were present at the sale about
150 persons from Atlanta and the ad
joining counties.
Cord Mill to Whitehall has been the
talk of the town.
The gentlmen who are interested in
this movement decline to say in so many
words that it will be a go, bnt
those who are in a position to know say
that there is no doubt about these things
being done, and there are intimations
that there are other important move
ments behind thiB one that will mean
much for the upbui’ding of Athens and

any dangerous consequences from it.
She says: "Our three children took
whooping cough last summer, our baby

to onr giving them Chamberlain’s Cough
Remedy, they lost none of their plump
