Goodwyne, in Monroe county,, near Goggansville, Miss Ella Goodwyne was married to Mr. C. Homer Wolcott of Griffin, Dr. J. M.

BARNESVILLE, GA., THURSDAY, APRIL 22, 1897. A MAMMOTH ENTERPRISE o 40,000 SQUARE fEET UNDER ONE ROOF. o • Mr. Jackson G. Smith began work on an another addition to his buggy factory which will make his by. far the largest buggy factory in the south. The new building, or addition, is 95X 105 feet, two stories high, and is built of brick. It extends the building on west, almost the full length of the building on the east side, and con nects the building on the lower • ends for the length of ninety-five feet. All the building, for this adilition vir tuall makes one building, is of brick and is two stories high. This affords a floor space, in the brick building, not counting lumber sheds, coffin house, and other similar space, 01 40,000 scpiare feet. Few people who have not examined this establishment have any idea of its mammoth proportion. It is well equipped in every way. and there are now being turned out 140 buggies a month, or at this rate, 1680 per year. When the new, building, just begun is ready for use, Mr. Smith can easily, turn out 3,000 buggies every year. It is a great enterprise and no body can really tell of its value to Barnes ville. Mr. Smith, and Barnesville, are to be congratulated on his suc cess. The Gazette wishes that he may live long and prosper. ft Handsome Residence- The plans and specifications for the handsome two story dwelling of Mr. and Mrs. J. M. Cochrane have been received, and all who have seen them have been greatly pleased with them. It will be one of the handsomest and most convenient homes in Barnesville. Mr- Cochrane has purchased the va cant lot between the residences of Mr. H. P. Myers And Capt. E. J. Murphey on Thomaston street, and will begin work in a very short time. The location is a good one, in a splen did community and it will be a very valuable home. Every body is glad to know that Mr. and Mrs. Cochrane will be occupying their own home in a short time. They are certainly val uable citizens for a cultured and pro gressive little city like Barnesville, and are greatly appreciated by the people. Sundays Services- Sunday was a lovely day, and as it was Easter, the people were at the church es in large numbers. Many new suits were worn for the first time by males and females, At the Baptist church no special services were held, and only a few flowers furnished the decoration for the church. Dr. J. M. Brittain preached a beautiful syrmon from the the text: “I am the rose of Sharon and the lily of the valley.” Miss Mary W. Lovelace sang as a solo, “Behold the lily,” and it was very greatly appreciated by the congrega tion. The seivices throughout were pleesant. At the Methodist church a splen did service was held. The' church was very prettily decorated and a large congregation was present. Rev. W. S. Stevens, the pastor, preached a very fine sermon from the text: “Except a corn of wheat fall into the . ground and die, it abideth alone, but if it die it bringeth forth much fruit.” The music also was appropriate and added much to the service. Be sides other appropriate music, a duet by Miss Nannie Howard and Mrs. J. F. Neely, and a quartet by Misses Nannie Howard, Clifford Burr and Mittie Rose and Mr. Frank M. Staf ford were sung. At the evening meeting, the Kp worth League had a song service. Many songs and hvmns were sung and read and the novelty of the ser vice added to the occasion. 11 was a good meeting.
