illness died.

something to stop this traffic in whiskey

best plan is to bring the matte; before

through the Gazette, and appeal to them
to tnke immediate action. Lot us not
wait until some fearful tragedy naults

the people of Macon were Indifferent to

We earnfetly appeal to every citizen
of Tift county who haa positive evidence
of the existence of theee distilleries to.
