Epworth League
The Epworth League met last
Sunday night at 7:30 in the Sunday
School room of the Methodist church.
Many of the members seemed to
think that the Chautauqua would
interfere with the meetiug, conse
quently, the attendence was not so
large as expected. However to those
present Miss Nell McKown showed
H“ r seif a good leader. Miss Anna
Lou Redwine will furnish the pro-
g.am ior the next meeting.
The following committees were
appointed by the officers.
Second Vice Pres., Miss Nell Mc
Kown—Anna Lou Redwine, Alva
Lowrey, Mrs. Pierce.
Third vice pres. Mrs. West—Alma
Bonner, Kate Martin, Mary Lou
Bledsoe, Alva Lowery, Hattie Gentry.
Fourth vice pres. Miss Redwine
Kate Brown, Mary Gentry, Annie
Martin.
Come, and bring that doleful little
neighbor with you; she isn’t half so
tiresome as you think she is, at leaBt
she won’t be when the Epworth Lea
gue is through with her.

B- B. Thomasson Passes Away '
Col B. B. Thomasson who had
been in ill health for some several
months, died last Monday afternoon
at the residence of his father Mr. J.
J. Thomasson, on Maple Street.
Col. Thomasson was a graduate
of the University of Georgia and
Yale. He began the practice of
law in January 1909 the partner
of W. D. Hamrick who died two
weeks ago Mr. Thomasson was
a young man of splendid business
ability and the prospects for a bril
liant career were universally pre
dicted by friends.
He was 28 years of age, and an
enthusiastic member of the Elks
and Masonic orders, the latter of
which had charge of the funeral
services from the Methodist churh.
He leaves a father, mother, five
brothers and three sisters to mourn
his loss, and to these we join many
friends in extending condolence.
J. J. Holloway Slates Position on
Election of Senator.
First and forepiost I have fav
ored all along the election of United
States Senators by vot^s of the
people.
Inasmuch as it is now up to the
Legislature to make this choice; I
hold it to be the sacred and pa
triotic duty of each legislator to en
deavor to select the best and most
available man who will fill this im
portant position in the interest of
the people.
Considering the fact that it is
very probable that there will be
several other candidates in addition
to those already announced, I think
it would be very , unwise for me to
pledge my support to any one can
didate before knowing who, or how
many may be in the race.
I want it therefore distinctly un
derstood that I desire to go to the
Legislature, untramelled, unpledged
to any one candidate, and entirely
free to do the very best thing I can
for the people.
I have fixed convictions along
these lines, and I would not part
with them to be President.
Respt.,
J. J. Holloway
Mr. Chas. Hammond Dead.
As we go to press we learn of the
death of Mr. Charles Hammond,
which occured suddenly about noon
today at his home three miles west
of town. He had not been in good
health for some time but was able
to get abt^t and had been to town
Thursday morning, He leaves a wife
and three daughters to whom, we,
with other friends, extend our sym
pathy.
Mr. I. R. Harmon Dead.
The many relatives and friends
of Mr. J. R. Harmon were made sad
when on Wednesday morning the
news went forth that he was dead
Mr. Harmon had been in failing
health for several months and had
spent sometime in an infirmary in
Atlanta: tout returned home a few
days ago.
The funeral services were held at
the residence on Longview Street,
Thursday morning, conducted by
Rev, W, E. Dozier, and interment
was in the city cemetery.
The bereaved ones have our
sympathy.
Withdraws From Race
Considering the fact that my
duties as cashier of the Whitesburg
Banking Company are such that it
will be impossible for me to visit
any other part of the county than
my own district, I hereby withdraw
from the race for the Georgia Legis
lature. James A. Kelley.
Gen. Evans Selected Adjutant
Gen. Clement A Evilas. ane of
the most honored Confederate vet
erans, will be appointed as Adjutant
General by Governor Hoke Smith
to succeed Gen. A. J. Scott.
Gen. Evans has been serving as
a member of the State Pri on Com
mission, and his appoint in ent as
Adjutant General will create a
vacancy on the Commissi' n which
Gov. Smith will fill by appointment
of Judge T. E, Patterson, of Griffin.
Gov. Smith has selected one of
Georgia’s most beloved veterans as
Adjutant General. Gen. Evans lias
been in very poor health for some
time, but his host of friends are
glad to know that his condition is
now somewhat improved.
Gen. Scott, the retiring Adjutant
General, has made a most capable
official, and had the endorsement
of practically the entire member
ship of the state military fo*- re-ap
pointment. Quartermaster General
W. G. Obear *will doubtless be re
tained.
