Then came the spec ai invited orators of the dav, Prof. Pollock, of Senoia Baptist & S-, and Col. JsR. L- Brow^ of the Newnan Herald and Advertis er These gentlemen went far be yond our imagination. Oar souls as an audiance It aped heavenward un der the dropping inspirations seem and ingly as they lell from the lips hearts of the speakers. The edifying impressions as they e .me dripping seemingly from the lips of iCspim tion were exiliarating to onr souls. The impressions were. I trust, indel libly implanted in the hearts of the vast multitudes of attentive hearers. Too much cannot be said of these gentlemen: the ; r success is sealed. We hope that at the next reunion one short year hence we may listen to you again. Next came dinner. I dislike to brag on home folks, but would prefar some of onr visitors to express their opinion on that subject; but that one hundred and sixty feet of table groaned under the weight of good thiogs aad as I have already said, was twenty feet too short. Af ter dinner and while the rain was gently falling, the crowded house was edified by two other noted S. S- workers and speakers, Rev. Mr. Cline, of Oakland, Ga., by whom nn der the trying circumstances of a crowded house, loving youDg hearts making love to each other and a big dinner just consumed, we weie high lv favored with some rate wholesome advice, for which we return thanks. Next came Coweta's next represents tive in the legislature, the Hon- W. Y. Atkinson. He was caught on the wing, but was wide awake all the same and with his towering mind that we as Democrats of Coweta in tend to have developed, farfetched delivered one of those sound, deep speeches that carries everything be fore it- After a good deal of persua sion, Mr. Otis Jones, of Senoia Bap list S. S., made ns the closing speech without a particle of preparation and only a few minutes notice. The three last gentlemen did what I con aider powerful well, take it all in all.

Note the distinction- To “Muggins” from the “Cabin," here’s my left hand (.nearest my heart, i Your bead is level. Col. D. Glesaner should be 6ent to St. Louie, and by the time he returned home shonld find his name hoisted at the mast bead ofGriffia newspapers as the Democratic nominee of Spald iDg county for the legislature. You may sift the “sands“ of Spalding and you can't Cud a sounder Democrat, with purer motives and more honest purposes than Douglas Glessner. of the Griffin Daily and Weexlt News. As you well know I am not of Spald ing, but I am a liner. Where is the newspaper man that has done more for his country and town or city than Douglas Glessner? He is editor of the soundest and by the way the cheapest Democratic paper in Geor gia. Unlike the “rooster, 11 the At lanta Constitution, that waits till the hens (the big side) all collect and then chooses, bat like a longheaded, sound, deep, far seeing anti'fame seeker that he has proven to us. your sister, (Coweta), he immediately sends a bullet into the rings, cliques, bag tooters, Ac., and packs half dozen more ballets around the first before the rooster up in Atlanta makes the first crow. The next leg isiature should compose our very beBt, our purest, our soundest and our most unselfish men, and Colonel Douglas Glessner. of the Griffin News, is booked ou my list as one of that calibre. A hint to the wise is sufficient. Laet Thursday I accompanied the Angling Club, Messrs D. E. Smith and Charlie Nixon, by special inv;ta tion to Sullivan's mill. We fouDd President Jim Harrison, Vice Presi dent John Dunbar and Secretary Jack Pryor of the Hollonville club there: bad been there from early Monday morning till high twelve rsoon Thursday with fisherman's luck and a great deal of unwhole some advice to our club Our crack fisherman “called and qualified" sa such, well prepared with a good fish ing tackle and stood report (Charlie N.) said “The wind is shifting," and sure enough by 5 o'clock r'ridav morning we had strung twelve pounds of as fine cats and eels ns an angling club desired. Boys, when you wish to fish agaiD, call out the President of Haralson Anglrng Club, Maj. Charles Nixon, if you wish to be successful. President H. propos ed to sell us his stock in the Hollon ville club, but we always decline bur ing sinking stock. Saturday evening the wished for rain came to delight of a!!, for which we are very thankful to the Giver of all good thiugs.
