Petition for New Militia District
G EORGIA I lartow County:
To Hon J A Howard, Ordinary of said
County: The undersigned, resident citi
zens of the 827th district, Georgia Militia,
Bartow county, Georgia, residing in the
northeastern portion of said Miiitia Dis
trict respectfully represent to your Honor
that a large number of the residents of
said part of said District are eight miles
from the justice court ground and voting
precinct, and are compelled to cross the
Fine Log mountain and Salacoa creek,
and said creek when swollen is unpass
able, making it inconvenient as well as a
burden to them in going to the court
ground and voting precinct. And your
petitioners conceive it to be necessary and
expedient to lay out anew Militia District
off of said 827t1i District, G. M., and your
petitioners further represent that being
near the county line of Cherokee they can
reach no other convenient place to vote.
Youir petitioners further represent that
within the said portion of said district
there is sufficient population and persons
subject to militia duty to authorize the
es ablishing anew district as provided by
law. Wherefore your petititiouers pray
that Your Honor appoint three commis
sioners, citizens of said 827th district, to
lay out and define the lines and boundary
of said New District, and such other order
and proceedings as are necessary and law
ful to cary out the objects petitioned for,
and your petitioners will ever pray, &c.

WiLLIE AND LOVE. /
Madame, my neighbor, is very rich.
Her mansion is large and tine.
Dainties with her are common food,
Her drink is the finest wine.
Our house is sm* ; L, our food is plain,
I'm only a girl of twenty,
But I've sense enough to feel and say:
“ Willie and love are plenty.''
Madame lives on her hoarded gold,
She's rich wherever you put her;
Willie's a trade in his willing hands.
And works for our brea i and butter;
In the summer’s heat, and winter's cold.
If weather be line or rough:
But I often say. as he goes away:
“ Willie and love are enough."
Fine visitors come to M.idame’s house,
They come in every season;
They dress, and dine, and dance, and ride,
And perhaps without any reason
I envy them now and then an hour,
For I'm only a girl of twenty;
B it only an hour, and then I say:
“ Willie and love are plenty.”
Would I give up Willie for Mad ante's gold;
My heart has a sudden fear
h t the very thought: and I softly suy:
“ Forgive me the thought, my dear!”
For I know the worth of an honest love,
Though I’m only a girl of twenty,
And I say to myself: “ I’m very sure,
Willie and love are plenty.”
Into all lives some sunshine comes;
Some have fashion and wealth,
S rate have pleasure and changeable days,
Same have beauty and health.
I iuve a husband, tender and true,
Tuougli I’m only a girl of twenty,
So I look at my ring, and happily say:
Wdlie an 1 love are plenty.”

CHAPTER XVII.
TTIE SUFFERINGS IN THE POOIt-nOUSE.
The unfortunate being's who are sent
to the poor-house deserve the pity of the
entire human family. They are always
treated to the plainest, coarsest food
and wearing apparel, and frequently
not enough of that. The poor-house is
usually let out by contract to the low
est bidder, and the contractor who
takes it as a job tries to make the most
out of his job. Poor-house contractors
are not always humane men. They
often abuse their helpless victims, and
as they get so much per head for every
member, it is to their interest to have
many, and feed them as cheaply as
possible.
In the case of "Bill Jones’ contract,
like many others, it was, what is some
times called, a political job. Bill fur
nished Arnold’s man for collector of
revenue all the votes in his school
district, and Arnold, who had elected
the county justice, just as one or two
men sometimes do elect every officer in
their county, had Bill appointed poor
house keeper. We fear the county
justices did not look to the interests of
those in.fort unates who depend on them
for the little comfort they require in
this world. They did not study the
physiognomy of those brutal features,
or consider the suffering he might
cause. But they rather considered
whether they would gain the most
votes by appointing him or the benev
olent-looking man recommended by
his pastor as a suitable person. Preach
ers are not usually good electioneers, and
consequently their recommendations
are hardly ever considered in the dis
tribution of public patron ago.
“Old Blaze can preach like blue
blazes,” they thought, “ but he didn’t
help us to our office, and he can't do
any work to re-elect us.”
Bill Jones and a gallon of cheap
whisky would carry more votes on
election day than all the sermons Old
Blaze might preach in six months, so
they gave the poor-house, at Arnold’s
suggestion, to Bill Jones, whom vve
find the proprietor when little Amos
Lakeman is entered. l>y order of Ar
nold, a pauper. The little fellow sat
for a long time in his hard chair, after
his piteous call for his sister, lie was
silent now. Those wretched creatures
had snarled at him like wolves when
they heard him, and it seemed as if
they had claws with which to tear out
his eyes, lie could only groan and
sob, while his Hushed cheeks dried up
the tears before they fell. He dared
make no outcry, though his head was
so dizzy and his side pained him so
much that he could scarcely maintain
himself in his hard seat, lie saw other
creatures around in the yard who were
equally as wretched, dirty aud helpless
us those in his room. Bill Jones, with
a large whip more like a slave-driver
than a poor-house keeper, was beating
tin old man because he could not hoe
in the garden.
“You lazy dog,” he thundered, “d’ye
think we’re goiu' to keep ye here like a
lord, and ye do nothin’?”
“Oh, don’t, don’t!” cried the old
man, trying lo escape the keen lash of
the whip ; “I’ll report ye, if ye don’t
quit.”
“Report me, ye rascal,” crack, crack,
crack came the whip about his body
and almost bare legs. The pauper
could only scream with pain. lie
backed up in a fence corner and then
crouched down, buried his face in his
hands and arms, while the keen lash
was laid upon his almost bare shoul
ders.
“You'll report on me, will ye? This
is for reportin' on me.” Crack, crack,
crack, came the whip, tearing up the
spare llesh and clothing.
“you’ll REPORT ON ME, WILL YE?”
“Does anybody else want to report?”
he said, looking around.
The old man had fallen upon the
ground, and day there begging the
brute to spare his life. Having satisfied
himself, the brutal keeper desisted.
The poor-house stood off the main
road, and was completely isolated from
any other farm. There were never any
visitors, and consequently no danger of
a witness to Bill’s brutality.
Supper was announced at last, by the
ringing of an old cow-bell, and little
Amos saw the wretched creatures,
whom he had held in such fear, run
ning 1 out of the house into a long, low
shed where there was a long table. The
table was made of rough oak boards on
v, hich were rude dishes, bowls and
plates of wood, pewter, tin. and earth
enware, all of the cheapest and coars
est kind. Around this rude table,
which was greasy and devoid of cover
ing of any kind, were hard, backless
benches for the paupers to sit upon.
“Ain't you goin to supper?” said a
woman, with an idiotic giggle, as she
peered in at the door, putting her dis
torted face almost against the terrified
child. One side of her face was drawn,
and one eye almost closed from the
effect of epileptic fits, which produced
partial paralysis and idiocy.
“Where is supper?’’ asked Amos.
“Over there; an’ if you don’t go soon
they’ll not be any left. They eat a
race,” said the simple woman, gig
gling.
“Who are you?” Amos asked.
“They calls me foolish Nancy; I
ain’t so foolish as they think. It’s
because I larf; but I larf when I can’t
help it. There’s nothin’ here to make
any one larf, an’ I guess I’s got to do
laifiu’ for all the others.”
She paused, because she was giggling
in a most hysterical mafiner. After a
few moments, she said :
“Ye’d better come now an’ get
sutliin’ to eat, cos’ they don’t wait here
on any body,” and again she fell to
giggling, until her distorted face was
almost dark.
Amos looked at that low, open shed,
which answered for a dining-room, and
saw those wretched creatures there
struggling, lighting and snatching at
the food, more like hungry dogs than
human beings, and felt that he did not
care to lie among them. But at this
moment Bill Jones, passing the door,
said :
“Why don’t you go to supper?”
Feeling sure he would displease the
cruel man to refuse, the child said:
“I’ll go, sir, I’ll go.”
lie began to climb down from the
hard chair, and with much difficulty
found his crutches.
“Ye'll not git nothin’ to eat, ef ye’re
(coin’ to be that slow,” chuckled Bill,
whose grammar was as bad as his
morals.
The woman who had called herself
simple Nancy was waiting for him, her
face distorted with a giggle.
“Come,” she said, “come with me.
Ye shall be my boy. I heal a little boy
like you once.”
Disgusting as this poor creature was,
Amos found that she was a beam of
sunshine in that place of horror, llis
infantile mind could distinguish in her
less selfishness than was in many
others. Her mind, dwarfed and clouded
as it was, had yet some faint gleams of
humanity, and lie accepted her proffered
friendship. As he hobbled along oil
his crutches, at her side, he asked:
“Is sister here?”
“Yes, yes; I’m your sister,” the
woman answered, with a giggle. “I’m
your sister and mother both.”
“But my sister Helen, is she here?”
The woman seemed puzzled. She
reflected in her stupilied way, and then,
with a giggle which seemed to decide
the matter, said:
“Oh, yes—yes, yes, I am your sister
Helen.”
When the table was reached there
was nothing on it lie could eat. He
had watched his father's pigs eat swill
far more wholesome and palatable than
the mess before him. There were
a few broken loaves of dark corn-bread,
Cooked hard, some boiled pork and
leaves of weeds which they called
“greens.”
The helpless creatures grabbed with
their hands, ignoring the few rusty
knives, forks and spoons they had. A
piece of corn-bread which had fallen to
the ground was picked up and given to
the child, but lie was really ill, and
could not eat. His face Was flushed
with fever and the pain in his side and
back continued to increase.
“My child is sick, my child is sick,”
said simple Nancy, taking the boy in
her skinny arms. “Til take him to
bed.” Giggling, she bore the little suf
ferer to her miserable, dirty cot, and
laid him upon it.
“Now you will be well soon.”
“Where is sister Helen? Oh, sister,
why don’t you come?” cried the siek
boy.
“I am Helen—l am her*,” said the
idiotic woman, striving to console tho
little sufferer.
11c fell into a feverish sleep and
awoke at midnight to find all darkness
and silence, save the snoring of the
idiot on the floor, having given up her
bed to him. His fever was raging
high, and he burned with thirst.
“Helen, I want a drink! Oh, sister,
sister, why don't you coino?”
CHAPTER XV'III.
PDUIJC SKNTI Jdli.VT.
Thero exists :i peculiar abstract non
entity called public sentiment. We hard
ly know how to define it. It seems to be the
general running of minds in one direc
tion. Usually there are one or two per
sons in every community, neighbor
hood or society who are local magnets;
and draw about them a class of inferior
persons who follow their thoughts, and
are said to be molders of public senti
ment. If they are right, public senti
ment is right, if wrong, public senti
ment is wrong. The great molder of
public sentiment in the Sandy Fork
neighborhood was Judge Arnold. lie
was authority on all questions, either
social or political, and when he took a
stand the other people, or a majority
at least, were sure to be with him. The
very fact that the Judge had tiled com
plaint against Helen Lakeman, charg
ing her with grand larceny, was
enough to convince nearly every per
son in the Sandy Fork neighborhood
that she was guilty'.
“She’s a poor girl,” said Mr. Taylor,
when discussing the matter with his
family, “but then she has fallen. It is
not the first girl who has fallen. The
temptation was great and she was weak.
The Judge was, perhaps, a little too
severe on her.”
“1 don’t pity her much,” said: Mrs.
Taylor ; “she was always a little ‘stuck
up’ I thought, and it may be this will
lower her a notch or two.”
Helen’s pretty face had caused many
to envy her. l’lie prevailing opinion
was that she was guilty. Not a voice,
save Clarence Stuart’s and her attor
ney's, was raised in her defense. Clar
ence was loud in his protestations of
her innocence. He tried in every way
he could to get his brother's address, so
that he might write to him, but his
father was careful that he should not
have it.
Clarence was plowing in the field one
day when Will Taylor, son of Mr. John
Taylor, the farmer whose farm joined
Mr. Arnold’s, passed down the lane.
Will was omi of those indolent fellows.
who enjoyed sitting on the fence and
talking on any subject better than
work.
“Well* Clarry, they've got that gal in
jail yet,” said Will, when he had made
Clarence pull up in the fence corner,
and stop his team. It was only a day
or two after the visit of the young
farmer and his sister to Helen, and the
youth was in no amiable mood.
“It's all a blamed lie,” said Clar
ence.
Will Taylor grinned. Will was a
red-headed, freckle-faced youth, of
about Clarence’s own age, and Clar
ence was ready to “whip him for two
cents.” When Will grinned he was a
most hideous person to behold. His
teeth were large, and face sharp.
“Ye can’t buck agin’ public senti
ment, Clarry,” said Will. “Public
sentiment is agin’ her, and she's sure
to be convicted.”
“I don’t care a cent for public senti
ment, Will; she's innocent.”
Again Will grinned triumphantly.
“People are jist like sheep,” said
Clarence. “There’s always a bell
wether that all the rest fuller. If you
want them to go through a gateway,
and tlie bell-wether starts another di
rection, then every doggon sheep goes
after him. It’s jist so with people. Old
Jitu Arnold is the bell-wether, and, al
though reason and humanity' says he’s
gone wrong, every fool will follow him.
Now, sometimes you see a sheep that's
got more sense than tho bell-wether.
He sees green grass to the right and
goes there. It makes no difference how
much the old bell-wether may ring his
bell and bleat. You call that sheep
CLARENCE AND TIIE JUDGE,
stubborn and contrary, but lie's right.
That sheep is just as smart as the bell
wether, but he didn’t have the bell on.
Old Jim Arnold wears the big bell, but
I’m not fool enough to follow him to
purgatory for it. I’d rather be right
than be Jim Arnold.”
“I suppose you think y T ou’ve got more
sense than aW the rest of us put
together,” said Will, a little nettled.
“I say I’ve got more honesty than
Jim Arnold. Nobody but him stops to
think about this matter at all. He
thinks, and they all do as he say's. Any
one who says Helen Lakoman stole
that bracelet is a liar, an’ I kin liek
’em out o’ their boots.”
Will did not fancy a light with the
youthful Hercules. To use Clarence’s
own simile, he was “jest as strong as
an ox.” •
“Oh, well, ye needn’t be gettin’ on
your muscle about this now,” said
young Taylor, “nobody’s goin’ to fight
about that gal, I guess.”
“I am. 1 don’t think much o’ fightin’,
only when l see a doggoned, red
headed, freckled-face pup, like you,
trying to slander a poor girl who has
no protection, I feel like pulverizin’
him.”
“I am not trying to slander her.”
“You lie ! what did you come hero
for with your hlees and public senti
ment? Cuss public sentiment. It’s
hung many an honest man an’ let
many a thief like you an’ old Arnold
go.”
“You’d better hush”—
“Why?”
“Because, you’d better,” his face
growing redder.
“I’m sjxulin’ for a light, blast you !”
Will looked up the l ine, and was
not a little relieved to see a no less per
sonage than Judge Arnold coming
down the lane on horseback. The
Judge rode his old sorrel pacing mare,
and his short, roan whiskers were ele
vated. lie was on llis way to Newton
to see the prosecuting attorney- and
help “work up the case,” which was to
be heard by the justice the following
Monday.
“There comes somebody,” said Will,
considerably relieved, “that you won't
dare talk that way to.”
“I'll talk that way to any livin’
man,” said Clarence, perfectly- furious.
“That’s Judge Arnold now; if ho
wants my opinion on tho ease he can
have it.”
“Judge Arnold,” said Will.
The Judge reined in his horse and
rode up to the fence corner.
Clarence was boiling with rage, but
silent. There was a smile on the
Judge’s face, for he felt that his plans
were all working to perfection. He
was no hypocrite, but the embodiment
of business and justice.
“Well, boy's,” said he, “how do you
both do? This is a nice morning.”
“Yes,” said Will, his face beaming
with a triumphant smile. “Clarence
says Ik* can give you his opinion on the
Lakeman case.”
The Judge smiled as though he knew
already what the youthful Hercules
thought in the matter, and then said:
“You will hear Squire Bluffer's opin
ion on it next Monday.”
“Yes,” said Clarence, unable to con
tain himself longer, “an’ you will hear
a precious lot o 'lies, too.”
“I didn't know you were going to be
a witness,” said the Judge, with a cool
ness that comes by experience.
The youth was dashed not a little at
the wit of the Judge, and Will Taylor
laughed immoderately.
“I will not be a witness, Judge
Arnold,” said Clarence, “but there will
be enough there to lie that poor girl
into the criminal court, you need not
fear." ’
“Oh, I have never had any fears in
the matter,” said the Judge, coolly. “I
am not seared, even now.”
“There w ill be a time when y r on w ill
be,” said Clarence.
“When will that be?”
“When you come to die, and the con
sciousness of the many crimes you have
committed will open the gates of a
smoking hell to your eyes. Then,
blackest of all, will stand out the per
jury you committed when you swore
that innocent girl stole that bracelet.”
The Judge sat stern and unterrilieda
moment, and then said :
“I thinlc you had either better go to
preaching or to a lunatic asylum. lam
in a hurry, however, anil can not wait to
hear the rest of your harangue. Come
over to Newton Monday and give it to
Squire Bluffers—it may help your girl
out.”
The Judge rode down the lane, Will
went back home, and Clarence resumed
his work.
