THE GlUVE OF LOKD|IIOWE UISCOVEREI).
Recent excavations at Tieonde-
roga have led to the discovery of
the grave and remains of Lord
Howe, who fell at the attack on
Fort Ticonderoga when the British
army, under Gen. Abercrohibie, was
so signally repulsed by the French,
under Gen. Montcalm, in 1758.—
Gen. Howe was the second in com
mand, and his death and the defeat
of the English forces greatly dis
couraged the colonies in their war
fare against the French and In
dians. This repulse at Ticonderoga
and the capture of Fort William
Henry, and the massacre of the gar
rison by the Indian allies, were mat
ters of much concern to the early
settlers, and added to their hard
ships and sufferings. In this, our
day of ease and many comforts, it
requires almost a stretch of imagi
nation to take in only a conception
of the hardships and dangers en
countered by our forefathers, both
from the invasion of the French
and the barbarous warfare of the
Indians. Gen. Howe was a gallant
soldier, who fell in the prime of
early manhood, haying apparently
a bright future andagloriou3 career
all belore him. During his brief
sojourn among the colonies as the
rising young general “of his ma
jesty’s” forces, he made the most
favorable impression, and though
131 years have elapsed since he fell
in leading his forces to battle, his
gallant bearing is often dwelt upon,
and the people whose homes are
about the spot where his remains so
long rested will be glad to honor
his memory by a tender preserva
tion of lus grave.

Judge Trumbull wa9 among the
number of the Chicago delegation
at Atlanta. He is an old man, and
in his address, when the House
tendered a reception to his party',
his voice at first was weak, and
showed those quiverings peculiar to
old age, but the encouraging, listen
ing silence of his hearers soon gave
strength to his lungs, and his sen
tences flowed smoothly, and his
well worded thoughts bore the im
press of a practiced speaker and a
ready talker. He served for 18
years in the United States senate,
and was ever a staunch Democrat,
carrying always about with him a
broad, expansive patriotism large
enough to take in every section of
his common country. Though his
locks are as white as snow, and the
physical man shows that his pil
grimage has beeu long and wear
ing, yet his entire get up shows
that his career has been successful,
and the impression that he has liv
ed for some purpose is fixedly stamp
ed over the whole man. Atlanta
gave him a warm welcome, and be
cause he came from Chicago went
a long way towards making our
people lend a willing ear to the
praises of the City of the Lakes, and
sometimes even wish that the
World’s Fair might go to them.
Judge Trumbull once lived in
Georgia, and read law under Judge
Hiram Warner. He spoke of At
lanta when he knew it fifty years
ago, only a few straggling houses in
a wide, uncleared forest. Only a
few of the men he then knew are
now among the living, and lie finds
amid his old haunts another gene
ration and altogether a different
country. The places that then knew
him only live in his imagination,
and the Georgia of that , day has
grown into the empire state of the
South. Many of its forests have be
come cities, and progress and civili
zation are pressing her still upward
and onward.

To the officers and members of Poy-
thress Council, No. 61, American
Legion of Honor, Waynseboro,
(fa.
We, the committee appointed to
draw up suitable resolutions on the
death of Companion Samuel Levy,
beg leave to make the following re
port:
We pause in the midst of our
usual ceremonies to pay'a final tri
bute to the worth of one of our old
est companions.
Samuel Levy, born in Hamburg,
Germany, Sept’ember 11,1821, died
in Augusta, Ga., September 14, 1889.
Such is the brief record of an event
ful life, lacking but a few* months
full attainment of the days of our
years, “the allotted three score
years and ten,” the feeble old man
was spared the “labor and sorrow,”
that would have been experienced
if, “by reason of strength,” his days
were prolonged to the four score.
For this we are gratefui to the
Giver of all blessings, while we de
plore our own loss.
Judge Levy’s life was rather
eventful. Born in a distant land,
In the early years of his manhood
he cast his lot with the people of
Augusta, where his worth was soon
recognized by his fellow-citizens.
This confidence early bestowed upon
him he never forfeited, and their
appreciation of the man was show n
by his election as judge of the court
of ordinary for Richmond county,
which responsible office he held for
a long period of years.
Not only in his official capacity,
but in all matters that mark the
valuable citizen, Judge Levy was
ever foremost in good words and
deeds.
He was pre-eminently a chari
table man. Ilis charity ended not
in giving alms liberally, but was
ever kind, speaking no evil, think
ing no evil. The lives of such men
always adorn and bless s.iciety.
He was an esteemed member of
several secret orders, but it was
plain enough that such associations
were formed purely from benevo
lence. These orders revere his
memory.
Among his own,“peculiar people”
Judge Levy was a leader. His
word was authority. As president
of the Jewish congregation, he went
in and out among his own chosen as
a patriarch, guiding them by his
knowledge of the “law and the
prophets” and the purity of his life.
But in the innermost sanctuary of
home he was tenderly loved. His
family lavished upon him a wealth
of affection, and he more than re
paid it all by a long life of devotion
and sacrifice. His family and kins
men rise up and call him blessed.
In this bevevolent order Judge
Levy seldom mingled with us in
our social meetings. Old age and
residence in a distant city deprived
us of Ihe advantage of his wise
councils and the inspirations of his
daily walk.
But, in this brief memorial, we
record our veneration for the aged
companion. We set apart a page
in our minutes suitably comemorat-
ting Jhis virtues, and send to iiis
stricken family assurances ot our
sympathy with them in their sore
atflicli .
liesotved, That a copy of the fore
going memorial be forwarded to
companion Levy’s family and pub
lished in The True Citizen.
Respectfully submitted.

Dr. W. M. Pitts, Thomson, Ga.—
Dear Sir—I can cheerfully testify
as to the intrinsic merit of your
Carminative. In the latter part of
the spring our little girl, in the
process of teething, was suffering
from cholera infantum,and was fast
becoming a mere skeleton, when
fortunately my attention was called
to the curative properties of your
Carminative. After using a few
doses, she commenced to improve,
resting sweetly at night, and soon
regained her natural bloom of
sweetness. You are at liberty to
use my bumble testimonial as you
think best. Trusting that God’s
blessings may rest upon your labors
in disseminating your Carminative
to the alleviation of the troubles
consequent to teething children. I
am gratefully and respectfully
yours. Jno. L. Nance. ~
