There is a story connected with the re
cent change in the management of a well
known family hotel in Atlanta which has
not before found its way into print. At
the time there seemed nothing out of the
ordinary in the failure. It was simply an
nounced that the house had been closed
by impatient creditors, and as such things
frequently occur no particular notice waa
taken of the event The people most sur
prised were the guests of the hotel. To
them it came with startling and rather
painful abruptness. The first intimation
they had that disaster had overtaken the
management found them ill prepared for
the blow. One bright morning when the
hungry ones came trooping down to break
fast they were confronted by a placard
fastened upon the dining room door. It
bore this legend: “Goodby. God be with
you till we meet again.”
It was the proprietor’s adieu. He had
departed in the night, and thus was the
end newa broken to his hungry guests.—
