(INSCRIPTION.)
TO OUR CONFEDERATE SOLDIERS.
Those who fell in fiercest: fighting and sleep beneath
the sod ot every southern state, tor they gave the blood
which cemented a confederation into the Federal Union.
Those who have passed away in the alter years ot peace
and whose ashes now hallow old Henry’s hillsides; those
who, like a benediction, still w. Me m.l ‘’: ;j. in our midst,
all scar ed and maimed; tor these, though in war they lost a
government, in reconstruction saved a civilization.
May God preserve forever in our hearts their memory
and in ail minds a knowledge ot their motives and their
cause.

Court Week,
Judge J-J. Flynt, of Griffin, has asked Judge Reagan to
give him time during the noon recess of Superior Court to
address the voters ot Henry county next Monday, the ißih
instant.
Judge Flynt has a standing invitation to all the oilier
candidates to meet him at any ot his appointments, or to
make appointments to meet him at such times and places in
the district as may be agreed upon.
Mr. Blood w orth has replied that he is willing to meet
Judge Flynt in in every Militia District, provided every
other candidate participates.
Mr. Bloodworth will be engaged next Monday, the
ißth instant, in the Supreme Court arguing ihe Perdue
murder case lrom Pike. lie states, however, that if Judge
Flynt will postpone his speech till Tuesday, the 19th in
stant, or Monday, the 25th instant, he will be glad to meet
Judge Flynt in joint debate at McDonough.
The 18th and 19th are on the first week of Court, and
the 25th is on the second or criminal 'week. We believe
they would have a larger crowd on the 25th than on either
ot the other days.
The people of McDonough and Henry county would
appreciate the opportunity ot hearing these two distinguished
gentlemen, and it is hoped that Judge Flynt will so change
his appointment as to make this possible.
