ANOTHER HfSTORIG 1 AND MARK
YIELDS TO THE RAVAGES
OF TIME.
The old Nolan law office on the
west side of the public square be
tween the Dunn House and Weleh-
Hnnt Supply Co., has been torn
away this week.
When the workmen began the
work of pulling down this old build
ing naturally the da's tt.gone were
recalled by the older citizens of tDo
town and much that is now almost
forgotten was recalled, n«>t only of
tln> incidents dealing directly with
this building but many other his
toric matters of the county.
'Fltis old house was the building
in which the first Baptist, church of
the town was constituted. Hon.
R. Nolan, in a historic sketch of
the town has the following to say
about it: “The first Baptist church
ever built in town was erected near
the road and in front present edi
fnce" (Old Baptist church). “It
was subsequently sold and rolled
up to the public square where it
now stands.”
Mr. Nolan bought the house in
1852 and has remained in that fam
ily since that time.
The exact date of the erection of
the building is not known but, it
was sometime between 1820 and '3O
In the early thirties there was a
groat deal of discussion among the
Baptist and finally a division of
this denomination, one wing form
ing the Primitive Baptist and the
other the Missionary Baptist.
In this house occurred many of
the first discussions that resulted
finally in the split of the Baptist
churches, and prominent among
the leaders in tli >so discussions in
this old house was Rev. Jesse Mer
cer, one of the greatest and most
beloved ministers of the Baptist
denomination.
The house since it has been on
the public square lias been used for
almost every kind of a business ev
er carried on in McDonough. For
many years it was used by Col. T.
(’. Nolan for his law office. In re
cent years it lias been used as a
barber simp and the town marshal’s
office.
It is very probable that in the
near future a modern brick struct
ure will be erected on the site of
I old historic building.
Farm For Rent.

dwelling, out buildings, tenant
houses, good water, convenient to
school, four and half miles from

What To l)o.
There is comfort in the knowledge so
often expressed, that Dr. Kilmer’s
Swamp-Root, the great kidney remedy,
fulfills every v ish in curing rheumatism,
pain in the back, kidneys, liver, bladder
and every part of the urinary passage.
It corrects inability to hold water
and scalding pain in passing it, or bad
effects following use of liquor, wine or
beer, and overcomes that unpleasant ne
cessity of being compelled to go often
during the day, and to get up many
times during the night. The mild and
the extraordinary effect of Swamp-Root
is soon realized. It stands the highest
for its wonderful cures of the most dis
tressing eases. If you need a medicine
you should have the best. Sold by drug
gists in fifty-cent and one-dollar sizes.
You mav have a sample bottle and a
bo k that tells all
about it, both sent f ree aSfe
