The Norman Park Press has the following worthy tribute to a Fitzgerald man: “One little act often reveals a man’s heart, as was seen the other day when the A. B. & A. was just South of Norman Park near Mr. V. F. Norman’s Resi dence going toward Moultie. Mr. S. E. Booker was at the throttle ahd Capt. Newton was in charge of train. As the train entered a cut near Mr. Norman's a small calf ran on ahead of the train. The train slowed down but the little dumb animal ran on, thoroughly fright ened, yet not realizing how near death it was. ! All at once it became fastened in a cattle gap, and everyone thought that the train would mangle its little body on the rails l but the brave, kind-hearted en gineer looked with pity on the lit tle animal as he would a babe and i reversed his engine and lifted tne helpless little creature to a place of safty. Ail hail Booker! He is a noble man and the A. B. & A. is bless ed in having v such a man in such a responsible position. This one little incident recalls | the character of the man. ” TO THE VOTERS OF BUTTS COUNTY: I am a-Candidate for Your BL, lISIIIIGE Health SJJ. = If you want to sell your real estate I can find you a buyer, or I keep chasing for one.
