THE WAYCROSS HERALD, SATURDAY, MAY 20, 1893.
From Monday’s daily.
A Town Sorrow.
Rev. John M. Marshall died last night
at 8.30 o’clock.
The announcement has brought sor
row to many homes and hearts, and this
office shares in the common sense of the
bereavement.
His sickness was of a brief but painful
character, and the city was not prepared
for the final announcement. Over four
months ago he had a severe attack of
acute heart trouble, and, having rallied
from that, the hope was cherished that
he would again recover, and that his
venerable face and form would again be
seen upon our streets. In this disap
pointment we feel that we shall suffer
only less than those will suffer who will
miss him from the home; and than those
who from long association will miss him
from his place in the church.
The following is a brief review of his
life, eventful chiefly in its steady and
faithful devotion to his duty and high
calling as a Christian minister : He was
born in Augusta February 26, 1822.
Here lie lived until he reached young
manhood; and here he dated the place
of his conversion to Christ and union
with the church, which occurred in his
sixteenth year. He several years at
tended Emory College, and came out
from the halls of preparation to enter
the active work of the ministry. He
joined the Georgia Conference in 1845,
only one of the Conference class, Rev.
George C. Clarke, of Perry, Ga., surviv
ing him. Only three men outranked
him on the seniority roll of membership
in the Conference, our remaining and
venerated brother, W. H. Thomas, while
older in years, being of more recent con
nection with the itinerant ministry.
From the time of his entrance in 1845,
Mr. Marshall continued until, because of
an attack of nervous prostration, he was
compelled to ask a superannuated rela
tion in 1886. Since then Waycross has
claimed'and enjoyed him. For four
years as presiding elder he had lived in
our town, and the warm welcome he re
ceived on settling permanently with us
has never worn out or grown cold. The
town .is surely better for his citizenship
He had l»een for years an active member
of the Board of Education of which, at
the time of his death, he was president.
As a grateful tribute to his love and ser
vice the schools suspended to-day.
It is a pleasure to know that with
only one exception his children were
with him at the hist. If aught more
than the divine consolation and the con
fidence of the resurrected life were need
ed by the bereaved circle in this trial,
they would have all that man could give
in the sincere and loving sympathy of
an entire community.
The funeral is appointed at the Meth
odist church this afternoon at 4:30
o’clock.
Turtle Story From St. Marys.
Editor Herald :
On Friday last our friend Iverson Mil
ler started out to catch a drum fish,
which is a very popular amusement at
this season of the year. After catching
one of these fish, he hooked an enor
mous turtle. He succeeded in getting it
near enough to the surface of the water
to see that its size would make it imposs
ible for him to take it into his boat.
Being unable to free it from his hook
without cutting his line, which he did
not wish to do, he determined to tow
it to shore. Accordingly he ordered the
boy that was with him to hoist anchor.
The feat was no sooner accomplished
than the turtle struck out foi* sea carry
ing the boat and occupants with him at
a rapid Rite.. Mr. Miller having his gun
with him put two loads of shot into the
turtle which caused him to flounder in
the water, thereby breaking the hooks
and releasing himself. Mr. Miller
thinks he would have weighed 500
pounds, and says its back was 'covered
with large barnacles. Doubtless if he
could have been captured he would have
been worthy of a place at the World’s
Columbian Exposition.

The S. F. & W. Railroad has already
commenced to distribute cars at the va
rious stations and turnouts for the melon
business. The freight train yesterday
afternoon carried about 20 empties to
Pelham. The railroad men say that it
will be only about four weeks now until
shipments commence, and the crop
promises to be an unusually large one.
The young vines are doing nicely every
where and small melons are found on
some. The railroad people await the
coming season with dread.—Thomas-
Ville Times.
South Georgia ought to be allowed to
name the next governor. The demo
crats of that portion of the state have
been the truest of the true. Indepen-
dentism and republicanism have never
gained a foothold there. Let the gov
ernorship go to some true, able, repre
sentative South Georgia democrat That
will be right—Ishmaelite.
Among Our Exchanges.
The Kissimee City Bank, of Kissimee,
Florida, has been levied on by the sheriff
and closed.
Ingersoll Wade, late of the Macon
News, has got a $1600 job under Secre
tary Hoke Smith.
The Augusta Evening Herald thinks
“quick legal trials and swift punishment
of condemned criminals is the remedy
for lynch law.”
A wagon load of watermelons was sold
on the streets of Plant city Fla., day be
fore yesterday.
If extreme partisanship were a final
crime under the laws of Georgia, boss B.
would be working in Joe Brown’s coal
mines.
It is rumored that Harry Hill, of At

papers, obtained the money and left the
city.
To-day Atlanta decider the question
as to whether the city shall issue $182,
000 in bonds for the completion of the
new waterworks.
The survivors of the old fourth Geor
gia regiment have determined to erect a
monument to the memory of General
George Doles at Milledgeville.
The plaining mill of Christian C.
Hartfelder, Savannah, was burned to the
grouud last .Saturday and J. C. Hartfel
der, one of the owners, perished in the
flames.
Yesterday’s issue of the Macon Tele
graph is a perfect dandy. Twenty-four
pages and all replete with the latest and
best news and editorials. The Telegraph
is in the front rank with the best of
them.
The Darien Gazette says it was the
first paper in Georgia to request the re
moval of old boss Buck. The whole
state owes thanks to the movant, and a
monument to the party that accom
plishes the fact.
Georgia’s Air Castle at the world’s
fair is the loveliest ever dreamed of, but
her exhibits are said to be the most
beautiful deluge of atmospheric nonenti

Mr. Eugene Mitchell, of Albany, died
in that city on Saturday. Mr. Mitchell
was well and favorably known through
out southwest Georgia and at one time
was a member of the firm of Welch &
Mitchell. _
The Original Man.
If the South Georgia editors are . at a
loss to know who were the original Ben.
E. Russell men they will find their
name to a telegram sent from this city
the day after this gentleman’s speeeh
at L’Ariosa opera house in the interest
of Hon. Henry G. Turner, directed to
Capt. Hobbs, chairman democratic ex
ecutive committee of the Second Con
gressional district. This is the first pub
lic mention of his name in this connec
tion—Brunswick Advertiser.’
Before the Brunswick Advertiser was
in existence and years before L’Ariso op
era house had been thought of, when the
city of Brunswick was in its incipiency
and the eleventh Congressional district
was a waste howling wilderness, the
writer of these few lines, then editor of
the Quitman Free Press, suggested,
nominated and endorsed Ben. Russell as
a future representative in Congress from
the 2d district. There are a few men
yet living, tho’ somewhat antiquated,
who remember the circumstance. We
claim to have found the redoutable
Benjamin first, and our claim we will
maiutain with proof, with force of arms
and against all odds. We never expect
to achieve anything in this life that we
will be prouder of, and the man who at
tempts to shear us of the honor will
have a hard road to travel. Now!
The financial depression in the United
States may he largely ascribed to the re
flex influence from the kingdom of
Great Britain, which is the central in
fluence in the money system of the
world. Great Britain has been over
speculating. The crash in Argentine
was hardly old enough for recovery to
be fairly under way, before the Aus
tralian inflation began to collapse. Some
idea of the over investment or develop
ment in that quarter may be had from
the simple statement that the whole
population of Australia is only 3,182-
137, while the colonial debts are $780,-
000,000 in round numbers. The debts
of the cities and of individual holders of
property under mortgage make some
thing over $1,250,000,000, or abou
$1, 500 for every family. Small wonder
that recent Australian bank failures
aggregate the enormous sum of $160,-
000.000.—Ex.

ADVICE TO FARMERS.
|Hr. Knapp Heard From Again.
Editor Waycross Herald:
After reviewing my paragraph in the
last issue of your valuable paper and re
ceiving the flattery of my neighbors, who,
in mass meeting assembled, passed a
rising vote of thanks for the public spirit
exhibited, in condensed form, entirely on
one side of the paper, as evinced in my
first correspondence. Mrs. Krupp, too,
lends her gentle approval in this matter,
and says she will abide by the general
satisfaction, hence, you see, as previous
ly announced, I have the support of this
neighborhood in fee simple, as it falls
within the scope of literature and finance
eminating and appearing under the
head of “advice to farmers.”
Now, the farmers of this section, as a
rule, are keeping close track of their
employment, prosperous, happy, and,
vice versa, every man under his own
fig tree in the sovereign capacity of mon
arch of his immediate survey.
The weather is fine, bolstered up with
an ample supply of refreshing rains and
occasional gushes of soft, sighing
zephyrs. The fishing season, too, is
receiving its share of patronage. If
Kettle creek is noted for any one tiling
more than another it is the enormous
schools of red fin pike that come up
, with the ebb tide at this stage of the
moon. Mrs. Krupp and myself were
down to see the Jjoys catch a few last
evening, and was surprised at the con
stant bite and rapid catch. Wm. Krupp,
“lie is my oldest boy,” found it neces
sary to get behind a tree to bait his
hook, otherwise the rascals would jump
out of the water and take the worm be
fore it could he placed on the hook.
“Garding suss vs. spring chirkings,”
will be the next subject»for the debating
society over at the school house on Fri
day evening. Friday evening is a big
day with us; our professor is all science
in the matter of education, and lias
everything graded as the law directs.
Inclosed please find one dollar as a
guarantee that I want your paper. I
never like to spunge on anybody and
trust you will give me prompt credit
with the dollar, and hold it as collateral
agaiust any dues that may emanate from
your office against me.
Officially yours,
Bill Knurr.
The Thomaston Times quotes a friend
as saying that the Columbian postage
stamp ought to be used only by ladies,
because they only have tongue enough
to do the necessary licking, but the edi
tor adds that he does not wish to be un
derstood as endorsing that sentiment, as
he is a married man and doves a quiet
home.

went to the bad place, didn’t he, pop ?”

The Wrong Coon.
The report that the negro who mur
dered Mr. Blitch near Willacoochee re
cently had been arrested, turns out to he
false. The negro caught is the wrong
coon. A strong posse is in search of
fhe murderer and the probabilities are
that he will be captured.

35 Years of Misery With
Chronic Diarrhoea.
A Perfect Cure by HOOD'S.
** About 38 years ago I got overheated
while at work in the harvest field,’and was
sick abed for three months. When I got
on my feet again I found that I had a had
kidney trouble and chipnic diarrhoea,
which has drawn on me for over 35 years.
Just Think of My Misery.
I dared not eat anything more than would
barely keep me alive. For years I felt that
my stay on earth would be short. I have
times without number been in such distress
ful pain and aching that I could not turn my
self in bed, and I would have to ask my
Hood’s — Cures
wife to take hold of my hands and turn
me. In all these years I employed the best
physicians but nothing gave me permanent
relief. I bad an iron constitution, or I
could not have stood the drain upon me.
“In the fall of 18871 was so weak I could
not work. I concluded I would try Hood’s
Sarsaparilla. To my surprise and great
joy I soon found that it was doing me good
and when I had used 7 bottles I was per
fectly cured. It is now 4 years and the
Cure was Perfect and Permanent.
“ For the past four years I have enjoyed
life and felt better and younger than in any
of the 35 years preceding. I endured every
thing a human being could and live, and
I will recommend Hood’s Sarsaparilla long
as I live." Wm. Osborn, Gibson City, Ill.
