Smith wishes to express to the people of Carrollton, Bowdon and Route no 1 its most grateful appreciation of many kindnesses and attentions ex tended during the long sickness and the death of him they loved so well. Mrs. T. A. C. Smith L E. Smith W. Russell Smith 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.
