Hay on an Honored Gue^t. i ■' *? • mm - M 1 ✓ A S® \ Ws x < N VI ill X V J The day set apart for the inauguration of a new Governor came in cold, rainy and thoroughly disagreeable. This may account in a large measure for the fact that the crowd of out-of-town yisitors was much smaller than had been expected by the managers of the occasion. Still there was a fair crowd in attendance, and the streets of the busy city of Atlanta for a time took on a holiday appearance. Whitehall The procession formed on street, opposite Trinity church, about 10:30 and shortly after 11 o’clock moved down Whitehall to Alabama, up Ala¬ bama to Broad, up Broad to Marietta, down Marietta to Pryor, thence up to Peachtree to the intersection of Forest avenue, where the infantry came to a halt. The Governor’s Horse Guard, com¬ manded by Captain John Milledge, pro¬ of ceeded out Peachtree to the residence the late Walter 8. Gordon, corner of Peachtree street and Ponce de Leon Cir¬ cle, where they halted and saluted Gov. Gordon as he entered a carriage drawn by four horses, lion. W C. Glenn, mem¬ ber of the House from Whitfield, and sixth district, occupied -8 .sL'ivic-L-PL scats in the Tl'jjlyr car¬ riage with Governor Gordon. The pro¬ cession then moved down Peachtree to the Arriving at the capitol, the infantry formed on Marietta, opposite the build¬ ing, and the Governor’s carriage, followed by the Confederate veterans, in command of Col. Lovick P. Thomas, the Govern¬ or’s Horse Guard and the Ilill City Cadets of Rome, Captain Charles Coth¬ ran in command, who arrived at 11 o’clock, moved up Marietta street to the entrance. The streets were lined with people who cheered lustily as the procession moved, and Governer Gordon, ever and anon, rising in his carriage and lifting his hat in acknowledgement. After the address Chief Justice Jack son admini-tercit the usual oath of oflice. The President handed to the Governor the great seal of the State, who in entrusted it to the custody of the Secre t a ry of State. President Davidson then proclaimed the Hon. John B. Gordon Governor and commander-in-chief of the army and navy of the State of Georgia for the en suing two flic years. When ceremony was over quite a number of distinguished personages gathered around Governor Gordon and expressed their congratulations. ex-President Con spicuous among these were Hayes, who shook him warmly by the Jiand and complimented the inaugral ad dress. Immediately the joint session wa» dis¬ solved, and as soon as the Senate retired, the House outside, adjourned. Marietta On the on street, be tween the capitol gathered and the custom house, a large crowd to witness the last of the military display. But they were doomed to disappointment. The rain bad band dispersed the military and driv en the to its quarters. Still the crowd waited until the carriage drawn by four white horses, which had been standing for some time waiting for the Governor, was driven rapidly away, and the platoon of mounted police foil wed. The occasion came to an end without display, and all went home mi the rain and with little ceremony. The Governor’s Horse Guard scored a : grand success in the dining given by that command to the local military and the State troops who took part in the inan gial exercises. The dinner was given in one of the stores in the Brown block, on Wall street, opposite the depot. The three floors of the store were used, and long capacity tables were placed in them. The seating of the three floors was six hun dred, and while the feast was in progresf every chair had an occupant. The grand military ball at the Kimball house was one of the most brilliant af fairs of the kind ever given in Atlanta. The Kimball, at 9 o'clock, was in a blaze of light. Every floor of the arcade was illuminated. The ball room never looked more beautiful. guests, who began to arrive al 9:30 o'clock, were so numerous that they not onlv tilled all the ball room, but thev filled all the floors of the arcade aud I many of the adjacent halls. The uni of the sold cry added much to the brilliancy of the scene, as also did the marrnificent toilets of the tadie« Tr looked as if everybody 1 was * present, Huii jfe of noted public of A1 lan ! men ther cities mixed with the throne I am itly whiled away the hours as if | no 1 ® questions of state had ever j VI hem or would ever vex them j lilitary feature was not brilliant ' but itable, and the few military or- !
