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.

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 J*_Maso_i_in Pine Log lodge of j THE WEEKLY NEWS, CARTERSVILLE. GA Colored and printed Piques ioc.

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 .” A.

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.
