2 As a pul'lic servant he was
exact, prompt and cautious, ever
bareiul of the minutest detail of
tiis public office. He dealt mercy
with justice, and our city is better
for his having lived in it. His
administration as Mayor was, we
feel, satisfactory to all, and had
he completed his term of office he
could have retired with the res¬
pect, confidence, and esteem of
all, with the full assurance that
HIS was a public trust. To the
members of his council he was
considerate and kind, aiding us in
oui labors and our associations
were pleasant and harmonious.

The Unveiling of Jefferson
Davis Monument at Richmond
Monday at 1 o’clock the unveil¬
ing of the monument to President
Jefferson DaviB, of the Confederate
States of America, occurred at
Richmond, This event was cele
bruted throughout the South in a
manner which has never character¬
ized any similar occasion.
On request of General Stephen
D. Lee, commander in chief of the
Confederate Veterans, Governor
Terrell, of Georgia, issued on Sat¬
urday, a proclamation calliug on
the people of this State to observe
the occasion by stopping all in¬
dustrial activity for five minutes.
In accordance with the procla¬
mation of Governor Terrell, Mayor
Pro Tem S. P. Thompson, reques¬
ted that all business cease for five
minutes, beginning at 1 o’clock,
and every business house on the
public square closed its doors and
all industrial activity stopped for
five minutes; thus a fitting tribute
was paid to Jeff Davis, who must
be given a place in the history of
America that will be unique and
one that is now regarded a3 honor
orable even by those who fought
the short lived government under
his administration.
Such was a fitting tribute to the
memory of the only President of
the Confederacy. The memory of

Royal Arcanum Pays Death
Claim of Mayor L. A. Clarke.
Mr. R. R. Fowler, Treasurer of
Hendrick Council, Royal Arcanum
here received a check for the pay
ment of the death claim of Mayor
L. A. Clarke.
This was among the first pay¬
ments made on the death of Mayor
Clarko and the distance the papers
have to go to the different offices
proves that the Royal Arcanum is
one of the best managed and most
prompt Fraternal Insurance com¬
panies m the United States.
The Hendrick Council of this
city is in a flourishing condition
and growing every day. Hardly a
meeting passes that new members
are asking for admission into this
order.
The Royal Arcanum insurance
is the cheapest and best straight
insurance in America. It is an
insurance that every man is able
to carry and should carry. It is
purely and simply fraternal.
Below we give copy of receipt
for the amount paid.
