Glovpr fof Jonos County Ga, which occured oil the 26th day of January 1889 at 1 o’clock ]>. ni. at his residence in sa'd county. It •was my earnest desire, that some other able pen would write appro priate Eu'ogics lo his memory. He was several times a member of tho L^giHlutuie from his County and twice a member of the , Senate, and a Sheriff of Ins county for muny years and a .staunch democrat all through life. Ile.was a member of the J2th Ga regiment during the Confederate since when he con tracted Rheumatism, of which he never rocovored, tboiug over fifty years of age when he entered the service. lie amassed an immense fortune before and after the war, nnd became a largo money loaner, never oharging over tho legal rate ol interest for his money, and many are the men of this County today who ate’indebted td him for .the homes which they own. Ho ain ply povided for ell of his children during Ijfe, was twice married, leav ing a wife to mourn his loss, for he yus a.devolod.husband, kind ..father and a good provider. Ir, was my good fortunp to only know him in lii3 latter days and liis motto was, “Energy will do anythin that can be done in this world and no talents, no circumstances, no opportunities, will make a man without it.” He was a number of the Primitive Bap tist Church at New Hope, and Charity was one of his most promi nent characteristics, for I have known him to help his greatest enemies. llishonoiB survive, him He was called away from a loving fireside and associations most dearly prized, from a confiding constitcncj and from the enjoyment of every favor offortane. He was born in Edgefield District, South Carolina on May Uth 1813 and moved to Georgia when quite a youth aud did his first plowing with hickory withe traces ami at one owned a whole District of land. A Christian genitor, true and devout. He is entitled to tho Honors which wo are now awarding to his memory. But in the more endearing charac ter of friend and comrade. The silent tribute of a tear moistens the eye of the grateful poor, to utter higher praises than wo can embody iuaMemoriam. Let him rest in pence for he has nobly earned his li}gh*reward. “IKK.” Pippin, Ga , March 10th 1889. FOR GOD AND HO MR ANp NA TIVE LAND. A Call for a State Convention of the Georgia W, 0. T, U.

EGCENTRIC BOYS. “I wish I knew what to do with my boy Dan,” said Mr. Brown, with a worried look on his face. “What is the matter with him?” asked liis friend, Mr: Jones. “Is he a scamp?” Well, no, was the slow reply, 1 can’t say that She is disobedient, saucy or mischievous, but he'don’t act like other boys, somehow. In what way? Well, ho don’t take much to books, although he keeps up iu his class pretty well; but he don't hank er af.er book-learning. He’s the greatest boy to prowl around the woods, bringing home bugs and roots and rocks, fhen he has a whole lot of gimcracks in his room, and he’s alw*yp pecking through microscopes, fooling with chemicals and making experiments with one thing and another, I declare i don’t know what's going to of him, and I hate to punish him because I know he don’t mean any thing wrong. It’s just Dgn’a ec centricity, I suppose, Mr. Jones laid his hand kindy on his neighbor’s arm. “I don’t know what you w id do,” he said, gravelybut I Know what I would do if I had such a boy. I’d buy In m a fine microscope, all tho chemicals ho could u«e, and all the books on natural history he could read. I wouldn’t mind if ho was the tail end of liis class if ho was a genius,” “A genius, Mr. Jones! “Yes, sir You never saw an ec centric boy in your life who didn't develop into something out of the ordinary, unless his parents crushed liis boyish aspirations, and made him believe that the was nothing to be learnd outside of books. Mr. Brown was only half convin yet Mr. Jones was right. The mere idler ot a boy may grow up a shiftless man, but the eccentric boy, who studies nature and seeks for knowledge outside of the school-room, has in him the making qf an inventor, naturalist, geologist or learped man. Such boys stand in nped of en couragement, rather than reprooi. FOU DYSPEPSIA I’M tlrsira’i Iron Hitter*. ’ PhyslcUna recommend it. All dealers keep It. It.CO per bottle.
