Mr. C. O. Goodwyne, in Monroe
county,, near Goggansville, Miss Ella
Goodwyne was married to Mr. C.
Homer Wolcott of Griffin, Dr. J. M.
Brittain of Barnesville performing the
ceremony in a most beautiful and im
pressive manner. After the ceremony
the party came to Barnesvilje and took
the afternoon train for Griffin, where
a reception was tendered them in the
evening. Miss Goodwyne was one of
Monroe county’s most beautiful and
lovely young ladies, and she was ex
ceedingly popular throughout that sec

highly esteemed young man of Griffin.
Friends feel that each of the parties
is entitled to congratulations in this
union for it is considered a very hap
py marriage.

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.
The League Delegation.
A big delegation from Barnesvillc
is expected to attend the Epworth
League convention which convenes

will be in session for several days. It
will be a religious convention of great

And besides, the cream is kept in such constant
agitation by the throng—who know a good thing when
they taste it—that a refrigerator is unnecessary to keep
it from becoming sour. Last, but not least,* it is a
