SYLVESTER, CA.
Her. W. I. Patrick wu born in Buena
Vista, Marion county, Georgia, June 22,
1842, and died April 24, 1910. When a
boy eleven yean old be waa converted
and united with the Missionary Baptist
church, in which he lived an active, de
voted, and faithful member until he waa
called up higher to be with hia Lord.
He tvas married to Miss Fannie Jane
Smith, of Muscogee county, Georgia, by
Her. G. 0. Willis. God blessed this union
w|th five sons, and four daughters. Dur
ing tho War Between the States he left
bis home town with the first company,
made a valiant soldier until he was woun
ded and had to be sent to the hospital.
Later he was sent home, and while there
the-war ended.
He was ordained to the Ministry in
which he spent the remainder of his life,
in preaching and teaching the Gospel of
is Lord by precept and example. He mov
ed from Atlanta, to South Georgia trav
eling as a Missionary for several years,
He found no place too humble to preach
the love of bis Master. In school house,
log cabin, or convict camp, he was delight
ed to tell the same old story.
In his church work he had the unboun
ded pleasure of adding mony stars to his
celestial crown as an instrument in the
hands of God in the salvation of many
precious souls.
The funeral services were conducted in
the Baptist church at Enigma, by Rev.
G. W. Durden, in the presence of his
family and a great crowd of relatives and
friends, who brought the most beautiful
floral offerings as tokens of thei r affec
tion and bereayement. May grace be
given by our Father in Heaven to sustain
his loved ones i n this seemingly untimely
separation and irreparable loss, but
thanks be unto God, his loved ones nor-
not as those who sorrow without hope
for they know where to find this patient
and kind brother, this devoted father, and
affectionate husband, and they know it is
well with his soul.
Resolved: First—That as a church
? bow in humble submission to His
will.
Second:—That we extned to the family
our deceased Brother our heartfelt sym
pathy in their great bereavement, and
pray that the Higher Power on which he
confidently leaned may sustain them in
this hour of sorrow.
Third—That a copy of these resolutions
be spread on a page of our minute book,
a copy sent to his family, and a copy sent
the Index for publication.

ALAPAHA JUDICIAL CIRCUIT.
Willacoochee, Ga., July 31, 1919.
Editor Gazette:
I saw by yesterday’s Gazette that the
State Senate had passed the bill creating
the Aiapaha Judicial Circuit That re
minds me that the Legislature of 1879
created the Aiapaha Judicial Circuit
and the Legislature of 1871 abolished it.
J. W. O’Neal was judge. He was a resi
dent of Thomasville, I think. I do not
remerabgr who was Solicitor-General.
Perhaps Col. B. T. Allen, of the Pearson
Tribune can answe r that question.
Yours Respectfully,

COLQUITT COUNTY’S GRAND JURY
The grand jury in Colquitt Superior
Court finished its labors Friday, says the
Valdosta Times, returning a numb* ef
true bill* and scoring many laxities in the
enforcement of the laws. The violation
of the Sunday-store-closing law came la
for sharp criticism. It was said that
many of the country stores pay no at
tention to the law and keep their storgs
open as long as they please. Another
matter to which the grand Jury called at
tention was that regarding children under
16 years of age who are allowed to drive
automobiles. The . presentments also
touched oa road conditions and asked that
some steps be taken to improve the high-
ways. > ' ■
