Leads The Van, While Others Follow On In Vain !
The people know where to go. They know who it is that is fighting high prices, and they show their apptecia
tion. The record of the New York Store has always been “The Most Goods for the Least Money,” and erstwhile an
ambitious competitor, green with envy, will bark, make faces and shake their hoary locks, abuse and cuss us. We have
neither the time or disposition to listen to their little croakiug, being satisfied with the Verdict of The People, that The
NEW YORK STORE is the Cheapest Place in Middle Georgia to Buy Goods !
Then Let the Welkin Ring! Let the good news go forth. Tell the Children at the fireside. Blazon
every hilltop and vale with gilt and golden letters that The New York Store stands head and shoulders above all
competition ; are the Leaders always of Low Prices ; the Friend of the People, and the Gulliver of the situation.
For the Next Thirty Days Lookout for Them to Hum. Come 'to see us, and buy your winter goods of us and we
will save you money. Don’t yer forget it!

McDONOUOH INSTITUTE,
■tegular Spring Term, Opens Mon
day, January Ist, IK!*4.
Promptly with the opening of the
new year, the above Institute will
again enter upen its missiou of educa
tiug the young.
The regular spriug term for 1894
will begin Monday, January Ist; and
it is earnestly hoped that the usefulness
of the school may be increased by the
continued encouragement of the sur
rounding community.
For the liberal patronage of the
past year, sincere appreciation is re
turned, with the assurance that every
effort possible shall he renewed for the
continued improvement of McDonough
Institute the coming year. It is the
pride of the principal; its work her
love ; its success her ambition. Parents
who enter their children in the school
may rest assured of theic utmost care,
not ouly iu the pursuit of their studies,
but every humble, patient effort within
the power of their teachers to fit them
for the duties of life.
The faculty will remain the same as
last year, aud with this brief announce
ment they enter upon their labors,
trusting to merit the confidence and
liberal support of the community by a
faithful discharge of duty, and conse
quent benefit to pupils.
Respectfully, etc..

Principal.

Mr. Nolan Retires.
We regret to anuounce the retire
ment of Mr. J. Q Nolan from the
agency of the East Tennessee depot at
McDonough.
For seveial years past Mr. Nolaii
has found the duties of the office and
his private interests combined quite a
pressure upon his time, a L -v since the
death of his brother, Mr. T. C. Nolan,
he finds it almost imposssble to contin
ue in his piesent position. Hence his
decision.
No more popular and efficient agent
can be fonnd iu the service of any road
than Mr. Nolan, and his retirement
will be a source of general regret to
the community. It U a notorious fact
that railroad agents have perhaps more
annoyances to contend with in their
services to the public than any class
of men. Throagh all, however, Mr.
Nolan has never failed to maintain a
pleasant courtesy and ready accomoda
tion in every duty. Consequently,
his general popularity could not be
otherwise than what it is. The East
Tennessee depot will seem unnatural j
without his genial presence.
The resignation goes into effect
about the middle of January, and al
though it is not definitely settled yet,
Mr. J. B. Newman of the Georgia
Midland, will in all probability succeed
Mr. Nolan, remaining in charge of
both depots.
Mr. Newman is known to everybody
around McDonough as the clever agent
of the Georgia Midland depot ever
since its establishment here, and no
one could fill the place vacated by Mr.
Nolan more acceptably to our people
than he.
Sheriff Glass executed a fine piece
of work iu the capture of an eecaped

A. Norman Wednesday. The convict

A freight train was slightly wrecked

Rev. K. Reed, a well known former
citizen of Hampton, but who has been

Coroner Pritchett requests us to
state that he has moved over on the
Mt. Carmel road, adjoining places of
W. li. Rowan and G. G. Weems,
where he can hereafter be found when
his services are needed.
An unusually large number of ad
ministrator’s sales are advertised for
the first Tuesday in January, and the
new year will bring about considera
ble changing in the settlement of these
estates.
The McDonough Cornet Band is a

Mrs. Nancy Speer Dead.
The sad news of the death ol Mrs.
Nancy Speer reached McDonough last
Tuesday, she having that day passed
away at the home of her son, Mr. W.
A. Speer, at Lovejoy.
Mrs Speer spent nearly all of her
life in this community, having but re
cenlly moved away, and leaves many
friends here who will revere her memo
ry. She was a prominent lady in the
society of her day, useful in her sphere,
and raised a large family, all of whom
were men and women of a high order
of intelligence.
The Weekly is unprepared to fur
nish an appropiiate tribute to her mem
ory now, hut hopes to be able to do so
in a future issue.
Her remains were laid to rest in the
old burial ground at Mt. Carmel.
Peace to her ashes.
