DEATH OF FORMER RESI DENT OF MONTICELLO The Athens Banner of I"ri-‘ day, Nov. 22nd, contained the following account of a former| resident of our town and a ladyi greatly beloved by all who knew her: ! “Yesterday morning about 7 o'clock occurred the death of Mrs. Ann E. Mygatt at her home on Prince avenue, oppo site the home of her nephew, Major John E. Talmadge. Mrs. Mygatt was in her ninetieth year and though feeble for some time and not able to get out from her house she was up Wednesday and as well as for some weeks previous to that! time. No definite cause could be assigned for her death—the frailties and feebleness of her advanced age proving too much for her delicate constitution. “The funeral services will be conducted this morning at 10 o'clock from the home, her pas tor, Rev. S. J. Cartledge, of the Prince avenue Presbyterian church, conducting the exer cises. The interment will be in Oconee cemetery. “Mrs. Mygatt was one of the oldest women of this city and one of the best known and most generally beloved. Good in her heart her life was full of good works—a long life and useful, touching through the decades hundreds who were helped by her gentleness and love and counsel. Her husband. the late George C. Mygatt, died 30 years ago. Her only son, Joseph Mygatt, died suddenly in the place of business of Tal-! madge Bros and Co., last year. Only one of the direct family remains now—Mr. G. T. My gatt, a grandson, who lives ‘here. Mrs. Mygatt was a sis ter of Major John E. Tal [madge’s father, the late W. A. iTalmadge. She has a number ‘of grand-nephews and grand 'nieces some great-grand-neph 'ews surviving.” A GEORGIA WRITER IS WINNING FAME Atlanta, Ga., Nov. 27.—The name of another Georgian bids fair to be added to the southern hall of literary fame. It is an nounced by eastern publishers that the works of J. B. Frost, a rich Atlantian, will shortly be given to the public in book form. Mr. Frost’'s writings promise, it is stated, to give a new impetus and strike a new note in the literature of the south. Several years ago Mr. Frost produced a book entitled “A Love Feud” which was much discussed at the time. It created a big sensation, and some of the sterner critics; while praising its literary value deemed it a bit risque. The author, however, answered these critics by explaining that the mission of his pen had been misunderstood. It is stated SAFE THANKSGIVING SONG (Tune, “Beulah Land.”) Our voices meet in happy chime At this, the yearly thankful time. I To show our gratitude we sing, | Far sweeter strains we fain| would bring. ) CHORUS. Thanksgiving day! Thanksgiv ing day! "Tis then our nation tries to pay Its heavy debt of gratitude . For bountiful supplies of food | And richest blessings that ex-! pand | To cover all of freedom’s land. | Throughout our country's breadth today Prosperity 1s holding sway, And marvelous events we track| In all its history, looking back. -—-..——-—.——_o‘_—.—.
