rived in Dawson Penniless
Were Given Aid.
Saturday afternoon two women
with two little children arrived in
Dawson on the Central train coming
from Macon, and appealed to the city
authorities for assistance in going to
an uncle in Alabama.
They said they were from Savan
nah, and had been furnished with
tickets from that eity to the place
in Alabama to which they wished to
gO, but that the transportation was
lost or stolen from them while they
were asleep in the sitting room of
the hotel in Smithville Friday night.
They arrived in that town on the
night train, and not having enough
money with which to pay for lodging
were compelled to spend the night
in the hotel sitting room. Saturday
the people of Smithville made up
enough money to pay their fare to
Dawson.
Chief of Police Paschal sent them
to a boarding house, and took up a
collection for them among the busi
ness men. He secured $13.50 and
they left on the early train Sunday
morning with tickets to their desti
nation and some change in their
pockets.

The following resolutions on her!
death were adopted by the Epworth
League at Graves:
Whereas, God in His infinite wis
dom and power has seen best to call
home to Himself our beloved friend,
and realizing as we do that finite |
minds cannot comprehend the mind
and working of the Infinite, but be
lieving that He doeth all things well,
be it
Resolved, first, That we submit
humbly to the will of our beneficent
Heavenly rather, even though an af
most impenetrable gloom surrounds|
us in the loss of this sweet christian
‘woman, our friend. ’
Second, that we hereby extend our
tenderest love and sympathy to (he |
bereaved children, and pray to God'
to comfort them in their sorrow; also
that He help us to live more like
her who has just left us and gained
that promised home where no loved
ones ever part.
