Mrs. Churchweil Dead.
Mrs. Theodosia Churchweil, of
Bloomfield, Ga., died at her home
last Monday at 12 o’clock. She was
an elderly lady and had been a suf
ferer for several months. She en
dured her suffering with great pa
tience, and was resigned to her
death.
She was a noble lady and by her
noble life had endeared herself to all
whose privilege it was to know her.
The Sentinel sympathizes with
Mr. Churchweil in his sad bereave
ment.

NOTES AT UNADILLA.
A lot of guano has been sold
here. A great deal of cotton seed
was sold here, and this causes
more guano to be used. Farmers
will use guano on their corn in
stead of cotton seed.
Every bind of farm work is
greatly behind. But very few peo
pie have any garden seed up yet.
The smallpox scare seems to be
about over. Only two new cases
in five or six weeks. Neither of
the new cases had been vaccinated,
Although the peach trees were in
bloom, the knowing ones say that
owing to the dryness of the atmos
phere and the ground, the peach
crop is uninjured.

Error Corrected.
We take pleasure in correcting an
error that appeared in The Sentinel
last week. It is not our intention
to purposely make errors, and when
we do, it is always with pleasure that
we correct them. When we correct
errors we try to do so in the spirit of
fairness and tiusl tint the public will
believe us sincere. Among other
things the Sentinel last week said:
“In other words the grand jury
presentments that are of so much in.
terest to every resident of D >ol»
county were being retd in the Senti
nel by thousands of readers six day
or 72 hours before they appeared in
any other paper in the county.
But that is nothing for the Senti
nel. It is simply our method of do
ing business and it is no fault of ours
if it is stale reading when it appears
in other papers by reason of the fact
that it has already appeared in The
Sentinel.”
We shonid have said that the pre
sentments appeared in The Sentinel
two weeks, instead of one, before
they appeared in any other paper.
We make the correction in order
that we may do no other paper an
njustice.

It Is Alderman Weisige-.
As per a call o! the mayor an
election was held at the City Hall
yesterday for one alderman to fill
the unexpired term of Col, J. G.
Jones,
The election was a quiet affair, a
great number of voters not khowing
that an election was going on.
There were only two candidates
in the race—S* C. Weisiger and Dr.
W. B. Marshall. There were only
eighty votes polled. Mr, Weisiger
received 51 and Dr. Marshall 2d.
While the vote was small yet one
of Cordele’s best citizens was elect
ted. Alderman Weisiger is the
head of the firm of Weisiger Whole

was until recently agent for the S.
A. L. Ry., at this place. He will,
we believe, make an excellent ofli-.
for the city.
