THE SHADOW OF GRIEF.
A GOLD SrORY.
Mr. Bolling A. Stovall's Death In Co
lumbia County.
Over the hearts of hundreds of Athen.
iads today there rests the sombreshadow
of sorrow, that followed the announce
ment of the death of Mr. Bolling A
Stovall at the home of his sister, Mrs.
R.W. L&mpkin, in Columbia County.
Only a few days since he left his home
in this city for a summer vacation and
the announcement of his death was a
severe shock to his many frit nds here
He was taken sick last Wednesday
night with a bilious attack, but was im
proving until Friday at noon when he
grew rapidly worse, and his mother
was telegraphed to come to his bedside
Mrs. Stovall left yesterday morning on
the Georgia train, but the arrow of
death sped quicker and at
eleven o’clock Friday night
had summoned the sufferer home.
Mr. Stovall’s remains will arrive in
the city to-day at noon on the Georgia
train where they will be met by the re
latives and f stands of the family. From
the train they will be carried to Oconee
cemetery where the funeral services
will be conducted by Rev. T. R. Ken
dall.
The choir will consist of Miss E len
Mell, Mrs. J. W. Brumby, Mr. T. S.
Mell and Mr. C. M. Strahan.
The pall-bearers will be Messrs.
Marion Hull, T. P. Hunnicutt, Frank
Hardeman, J. D. Mell, Frank Upson,
T. W. Seed,' Tom Gerdine and E. W.
Charbonnier.
Mr. Stovall was twenty-three yea T 8
of age at the time of his
death, and was one of
the rising young business men of Ath
ens. He was an old University boy, a
member of tbe Sigma A’pha Epsilon
fraternity, and one of the most popu
lar young men in the ci'y.
Among tbe mauy duties be performed
in life none attested bis character more
b autifully than that of Librarian of
tbe Presbyt-rian Sunday school, to
wbioh he was fondly attsched.
And now, the writer of ibis article
would add a brief personal tribute to
the friend whose spirit is now beyond
the skies. Tbe close friendship of
nearly seven years has been severed by
tbe band of death. And yet it is
pleasant to remember that never have
I heard a harsh word spoken of
the departed nor one unkind utterance
fall from his lips concerning any hu
man being.
He «ra9 a young man who moved
among his fellows with a kindness and
friendliness that marked him as a
princely gentleman, whom no commu
nity could well affrrd to lose.
A more g dden heart never rested
within a human breast; a more sunny
disposition never adorned a human life;
a kindlier spirit never dwelt within
human frame; a nobler, truer friend
never answered to the roll call of friend
ship.
Among the people who knew him no
words of eulogy or praise need be writ
ten. His life was an open book upon
which, be it said to his credit, there
were no blots to defacs the record. He
was a universal favorite, winning friends
wherever he went, friends who today
mourn bis death with unalloyed grief
For many days we were intimateiy
associated in journalism, and tonight as
I pay this last sad tribute to the mem
ory of one whom none knew but to love,
there comes a feelir g that just ahead
the splendor of thtr eternal dawn
How Two Gallant Soldiers Were Rout
ed During the War.
The recent re-union of old soldiers,
which reflected so much credit upon
the g lod people of Athens, and gave
the survivors such pleasures as they
have rarely known, has turned our
thoughts towards the past, and brought
out from the God given store house of
memory, many esmp and battle scenes,
with all the vividness of yesterday,
Among others, I have been reminded
of one, in which the Mayer of Atlanta,
and the Ordinary of Newton county,
were made the victims of a plot whi.b
it is hoped, they will not think too mean
to tell, after the lapse of nearly thirty
years.
It occurred in tbe early spriFg of ’03,
when tbe Troup Artillery was yet in
winter quarters at Camp Callaway, in
Carolina county, Va.
Two or three mile* from our camp,
lived a gentleman, who had refugeed
with his family fre m Fredericksburg.
In that family were three very intelli
gent and at tractive, young ladies. Two
of them were especially lovely in the
eyes of the aforesaid Mayor and Ordina
ry. Or, perhaps I had better say one of
them, for it was told and believed in
camp that ttey both fancied the second
daughter, and escb tried to make the
other believe that he was in love with
the eldest.
Right here I am reminded that our
brave and stoical Chaplain, C. J O., now
of Atlanta, was led captive by the
charms of this same second daughter.
But to the story.
Ono afternoon while this writer was
by in his tent readirg, Lee Lyle and
Bill Dearing came running in, laugh
ing mischievously, and sayirg: “Jim
we’ve got a trick on hand, and want
you to help us carry it out, will you do
it.” “Let me know wb&t it is and I’ll
tell you.”

been quite sick at his residence on
D)uglierty 8 r:et. His friends knew
that he was very ill. but tbey didn’t an
ticipate any serious re u'ts.
Test rday morning his disease sud
denly passed into congestion of the
brain and at eight o’clock Mr. Snead
passed away.
Tbe announcement of bis drath cast a
gloom over the city, and his many
friends were shocked to bear of . hi
death.
Mr. Snead was originally a Virginian
and for nearly fifteen years had been a
citizen of Athens. He was one of our
most respected merchants and was
h g’ily esteemed by all who knew him
His disposition was of a quiet nature,
and yet he made many friends readily,
and was one of the most upright citi
zens of Athens. For many year he had
been a devout member af the Baptist
church, and was a most consistent
Christian gentleman.
He leaves a wife and one child to
mourn his death, and to them and all
bis bereaved relatives the Eympathie 1
of all are extended. He was insured
for several thousand dollars in different
societies.
Tbe funeral exercises will be conduc
ted at tbe First Biptist Church tbi'
morning at ten o’clock by Rev. L. R
Gwaltney.
Tbe following gentlemen will act as
pall bearers, and are requested to meet
at the residence of Dr, H. M. Edwa ds

ITS STRENGTH IN JACKSON.
The Vote of The Third Party in The
County.
The strength of the Third Party in
Jackson is shown br the vote on tbe
P.ckett-Winn contest.
According to the secretary of the
meeting only two hundred and sixty-
seven votes weie oast.
Tbe Jackson Herald commenting on
this vote:
No excuse why every Third party
man in the county should not have
been here. We will not say they were
all here, however.
Say tbey have twice as many as
voted, then they only have 631. Say
they have three limes as many, they
only have 801. Say they have four
times as many, there will only be
1,008. Say they have five times as
many Third party voters as were here
Saturday, then the number will be
1,335 votes, and tbe Democrats can beat
that. We don’t believe they have three
times as many as were here and voU d
We have no reason for thinking bo.
We think the vote here on Saturday
was a very fair test of the Third party’s
strength.

APNENOMENON.
Witnessed In the Skies Yesterday.
A gentleman was in the Banner
office yesterday who told of a remarka
ble phenomenon of nature witnessed in
tbe eastern heavens yesterday mrrning
about four o’clock.
He was lying in bed when sometbir g
flashed suddenly like lighting. He
arose and went to the window and there
saw a wonderous sight. In theeas
there was a large meteor with a comet
like tail and behind it were two stars
and behind them two more stars.
These five stars darted across the
skies, not so rapidly as usual, but mak
ing a large amount of light.
This gentleman said it was the grand
eat sight he has ever seen in the heav

GLENN LODGE ANNIVERSARY.
The Enjoyable Entertainment Friday
Night.
Tbe anniversary of Glenn Lodge No.
7s, I. O. O.F. Friday night, was most
appropriately celebrated at the park.
This lodge was organized July 29,191
with a membership of twelve. It now

men in Athens.
It was named in honor of the late
Jndgi Luther J. Glenn of Atlanta, and
is worthy of Ps nam.e.
Mr. H. S. West presided ov.r the ex
ercises and made the opening speech.
Mr. T. W. Reed made the address of
weloome and Mr. J. E. Gardner fol
lowed with appropriate remarks.
Then, after music by the band, eler
gant relresbments were served, con
sisting of watermelons, lemonade, cake,
sherbet, cream, etc., which were highly

The Nest Egg of Democracy In Brat
berry’s.
The primary showed ap only one vote
cast in Bradberry’s district.
And that vo’e was cast by Mr. J. J
McLeroy.
Mr. McLeroy is therefore the nes!
egg of Democracy in Brtdbfrry’s dis
trict, and the disticcdon is an honor to
him.
It is a great mistake to think, bow
ever, that only one vote wid be pol e
for Democracy in Bradoerry’s dis’.ric
next. November.
There are many citizens of that place
who will return to the ranks before tt
election and around tlat lone vote
many mire will cluster.
Bradberry’s district will not consent
to be tbe only Third party district in
the county and by election day the skies
will clear in that direction.

Btrange story from Watson connty.
A short while since there was a young
man in the employ of one of largest
firms in the county.
He become infatuated with one of his
employes and was jealous of any one
who spoke to him
He kept a constant watch on his
employer and sought a quairel with
every one who spoke to him.
The matter beoome so s?rion3 that
the employer was forced to discharge
the young man in order to preserve
peace and quiet in bis store.
Thro© years ago my wife, four little children# and
myself were afflicted with a crusty, scaly disease
of the skin. It tormented us all. Such a plague I
hope will never again visit ray family. My
children's ages were respectively nine, seven, and
four years, eseept the youngest, who was only
two months old. Of all our suffering, my wife
suffered the most. It almost drove her mad. f lhe
disease first made its appearance on my wife a
back between the shoulders, and spread across to
her breast. It looked like it was covered over with
little scales. I first bought of a drug store
medicine for skin disease, which failed to do any
good whatever. I neat employed a doctor who
gave relief for a short while. After trying him for

THE MASTERS QUEST.O.L
Have y« looked for sheep in the desert,
For those who have missed their way?
Have you been in the wild, wast places,
Where the lost and the wondering stray?
Have ye trodden the lonely highway,
The foul and darksome street?
Iutnay be ye’d see in the gloaming
The print of my wonderful feet.
Have ye folded home to your bos un
The trembling neglected lamb,
And taught to the little lost one
The sound of the shepherd’s name?
Have ye search for the poor and needy.
With no clothing, no borne, no bread?
Tbe Soul of man was among them—
He had no where to lay his head.
Have ye carried Hie living water
To tbe parched and thirsty soul?
Have ye said to the sick and wounded,
“Christ Jesus makes tbe whole?”
H*vu ye told my fainting chliding
Of the strength of tie Father’s hand?
Have ye guided the totteiing footsteps
To the store of the “golden land?”
Have ye stood by the sad and weary,
To smooth the pillow of death,
To comfort the sorrow-stricken,
And strengthen the feeble faith?
And have ye left, when the glory
Has streamed through the open door.
And flitted across the shadow,
That where 1 had been before?
Have ye wept wilb tho broken-hearted
In their agony of woe?
Ye might bear my whispering beside you
“Tis the pathway I often.’go!”
My brethren, my friends, my desciples,
Can ye dare to follow me?

There shall the seravnt be!
WHAT CAN WE DO FOR THE SA
VIOUR?
By way of encouragement I will tell
you what a little afflicted dwarf is doing
for the Saviour. When little Sallie Grif
fin was six years old she was seized with
rheumatism and was afflicted for life. S!
nee then she has been a cripple, and her
only way of getling about is by means of
a small ehair with rollers. She cannot
walk a step. She is now over thirty years
old but a dress made for a six years old ch
ild would tit her. Her head is the only
part of her body that is developed, but for
tunately she is blessed with as much com
mon sense as any woman of her age.
When the Womau’s Missionary Society
was organized in Temple last September,
she sent the society word that she woulc
like for her name to be enrolled, and while
she could never attend the meetings, she
could send in her dues. Not long since she
told the writer that she made her missio
nary dues by crocheting trimming for any
one who would give .her work to do.
While her little hands are all drawn by
rheumatism, she is doing all she can by
crocheting for the Lord to help send the
Gospel to the heathens. Though five
miles away, she says she always remem
bers the society the evening it meets; and
no doubt tbe success of the society is
partly due to the prayers that are offered
up by that afflicted member. How many
of the more fortunate women are doing as
much for the Savior as this little dwart?
Shall she in the day of judgement rise up
to condemn any of us for neglect to im
prove tbe time and talent which God has
given us.
How the slothful and indifferent mem
bers of the missionary society should trem
ble, when they think of the zeal and
courage with which she labors to obtain
her dues, and the interest she takes in the
society, which she ever blesses with her
frayers, if not her presence. “And let ue
not be weary in well doing, for in due sea
son we shall reap if we faint. not.’’—Wes
