CONTINUED FROM FIRST PACK.
Near the end, when the ice cream
was to be served, all the lights
went out and in marched the wait
ers, the odd ones carrying large
round Chinese lanterm mounted
on empty bottles which were set on
the table. The even ones carried on
trays human figures of Ice cream
surrounding a ring of ice in which
burned a candle. The effect was
very pleasing. Flags of different
nations were then run on wires to
all central parts of the dining room
•-and little electric lights flashed
out from amongst the flowers over
head. Then some American offer
ed a toast to Capt. Englehart, to
which he replied in German, much
to my sorrow, as I wanted to know
what he was talking about. And
lastly a large rectangular box
three by four feet and three inches
thick, with cloth sides, swung out
over our heads and we saw the
words. “Au Revoir, But Not
Good-Bye,” and the cc rresponding
German, illuminated by electric
lights inside. Altogether a very
nice way to tell your passengers
good bye, and something they
don't have on the English and
American liners.
March nth—before breakfast.
We’re nearing land which a few
minutes ago came in sight. The
water is green instead of blue, and
there are all manner of small craft
about and steamers also. I’ll add
more later. 6 p. m. —We’re now
away from Cherbourg and on our
way to Southampton. That land
this morning was the Lizard.
Then we saw no more land until
we reached Cherbourg. There is
a magnificent breakwater at this
place. It was built entirely by
prisoners taken from Germany by
Napoleon. The channel is open
through the center and there is a
large fort on each side of the en
trance and several more along the
top of the wall at regular intervals.
Inside the harbor we saw two fine
battleships and while we were
looking at them along came a
“submarine,” cutting the water
like a knife. I tell you what, that
harbor is pretty well protected.
We have been in a nasty fog for
several hours but it is a little thin
ner than before we reached Cher
bourg, when the whistle blew once
a minute for two hours. There is
another American personage on
board, a jockey, by name of Gus
Scherer, who got lett when seven
vHbers sailed on the Oceani. last
This afternoon I met Mr. Ed
ward Breek, M. A., Ph. D. of Bos
ton, who iived for several years in
Leipsic and Berlin and knows my
uncle Rene very well Nothing
more to tell now, so good-bye,
Rene Granger.

JUDGE T. N. STANFORD.
To Cartersville Lodge, No. 63,
F. & A. M.: '
The undersigned committee ap
pointed to prepare and present to
this lodge a memorial of our late
Brother Stanford respectfully
submit the following report:
Theopholus Newton Stanford
was born in Newton County,
Georgia, Feb. 4, 1830. At the age
of ninteen, his father’s family
removed from Newton to Bartow
County, then called Cass. Here
the greater part oi' Brother Stan
ford’s life was spent.
On December 29, 1853, he was
married to Miss Mary Jane Baker,
a daughter of the late Jesse Baker,
Esq., who lived in Pine Log, in
this county. Mrs. Stanford " died
in December, 1885. Brother Stan
ford never remarried.
When the tocsin of war sounded
its terrible alarm throughout our
southland, he became a confeder
ate soldier and. as one of Wheel
er’s cavalry, fought under the
Stars and Bars.
He was in General Joe John
ston’s army and took part in the
bloody fighting during the memo
rial retreat from Chattanooga to
Atlanta. He surrendered with his
command under Gen. Johnston at
Jonesboro, North Carolina, April
26, 1865.
Soon after the war he was made

shipful Master: Removing to
Whitfield county in 1875, he was
affiliated with Dalton lodge while
there. In 1885, he moved back to
Bartow and took up his residence
in Cartersville, becoming a mem
ber of Cartersville lodge and re
maining such until his death, No
vember 19, 1900.
Brother Stanford related to the
writer the following incident:
“During the war, when the army
to which he belonged was on the
march and the rivers were swollen
from excessive rain, one of his fel
low soldiers was swept down
stream by the surging billows and
in imminent danger of drowning.
Brother Stanford heard this sol
dier give a cry which he did not
understand, having never heard
anything like it before. At once,
a sturdy Tennesseean leaped into
the raeing waters, though the act
seemed certain death to both, and
managed to save the drowning
man. Brother Stanford learned
that both the rescuer and the
rescued were Masons though per
sonally strangers to each other.
Brother Stanford was not then a
Mason; but on seeing how one
stranger risked his life for another
because they were both Masons,
he became deeply impressed and
resolved to become a Mason if he
could. This he did as sdon as
possible after the war closed. For
many Veai s Brother Stanford was
a member of the Methodist church
whose doctrines and principles he
thoroughly believed. Indeed, it
was characteristic of him to believe
strongly what ever he believed
at all. He was a man of deep
conviction, resolute in maintaining
his views, open and trank in con
fessing them. He would not bend
the pregnant hinges of the knee,
that thrift might follow fawning.”
Fora number of years before
his death he was Justice of the
Peace. In this office he exhibited
a clear discernment of legal princi
ples, quickness of perception,rea
diness of decision and an uncom
promising resolution to decide ac-1
cording to the principles of justice
without regard to legal technical
ities or meretorcious surroundings.
For weeks before his passing away
he was enfeebled, and the end'
came gradually and by almost im
perceptible graduations of weak
ness. Thus this upright citizen,
faithful church member and loyal
Mason, passed from labor to re
freshment.
We would not lift the veil which
the public gaze. But we may prop
erly record the fact that in all the
relations of the hearthstone he was
loving tender and true. Those
who see the vacant chair and miss
the pressure of the father’s hand
know better than we what a void
his absence leaves in their hearts.
In obedience to his wishes his
body was buried by Cartersville
Lodge in Oak Hill Cemetery, witq
Masonic honors.
And now, in commemoration of
his virues and in token of our
respect and affection tor his mem
ory, we do present to our lodge
this sincere and truthful tribute to
his virtues as a man and a Mason.
We recommend that this memorial
be spread upon our records and
published in our local papers;and
that a copy be furnished the family
of our departed brother “whose
loss we deplore and whose memory
we revere .”

THE WOFFORD ACADEMY.
Editor The News:
The academy recently burned at
Cass Station, was known as “Wof
ford Academy.” It was built in
early seventies. It was a monu
ment to the public spirit, the enter
prise and the desire to build up the
community—the county and the
state —to the desire of being closer
to the se unable to send their chil
dren away, the opportunities for
educational advantages; ves, a
small monument to these high and
noble motives in the breast ot one
of our most prominent and public
spirited citizens Gen. W. T. Wof
ford. He, it was, who had it be
gun and completed. He, it was,
who largely supported it for years
after its completion. It was a
boon and a blessing to the neigh
borhood, a monument to his
memory. It is burned. By cruel
liames Wofford Academy was
leveled to the ground. Nothing left
save that which was indestructible
by fire. Let us, citizens of Bartow
county, re erect this, not costly
monument. Nay, will not the
