Big Day at Bowdon.
Last Thursday—Thanksgiving—
was truly a great day for Bowdon.
Before “Old Sol" began to show
his beaming face aboue the eastern
horizon, people began to come into
town, and by noon they were here
from the four winds of the earth.
The real gist of the occasion was
the coming of the first train over
Bowdon’s new railroad. The first
train met the early train from Ce-
dartown to Griffin at the junction
and brought down a number of pas
sengers, but the “most principalist
train” was the Atlanta special com
ing via Newnan and Cairjllton get
ting here about 11 o’clo 'K. The en
tire train was loaded down with
passengers, and upon its arrival it
was met by several thousand peo
ple and Bowdon’s splendid Brass
Band, (who were assisted on this
occasion by Holloway Brothers from
Clem, and some players from Car
rollton) and the whole school in
procession by grades and many of
the students in uniforms.
The Band rendered some very
fine music, the procession marched
to the College grounds and the large
College auditorium was soon filled
to overflowing. Prof. V. D. Whatlny,
President of the College, acted as
master of ceremonies.
Prof. J. A. Poole delivered the ad
dress of welcome. Speeches were
made by Congressman W. C. Adam
son and Rev. G. D. Harris after which
adjournment for dinner was an
nounced
The "dinner was served on the
college campus, consisting of about
4000 pounds of {barbecued beef, 1
besides the pork, mutton, and Bruns
wick stew. |
In the afternoon speeches were
made by Hon. Frank Hooper, of At
lanta and United States Senator,
Joseph M. Terrell.
All the speakers paid glowing
tribute the untiring energy of our
fellow townsman, Dr. Jas. L Lov-
vorn, whose keen foresight and busi-
acumen made the road possible,
as there had been quite a number
of unsuccessful efforts made to get
a railroad here, but heret afore each
effort had met with failure.
The road, as it links Bowdon with
the outer world with strong bands
of steel, opens up for this town vast
opportunities, and lays at our
doors, the opportunity to build up
one of the best towns in Western
Georgia, for we have an imme ise
amount of the finest farming terri
tory at all South, South-west aud
West.
Bowdon has already won the dis
tinction of being the best trading
town in all this country without a
railroad, and with the improved
facilities we now have we can go
on to greater heights of success.
