lsix months are wortk more than
the year’s production of pig iron.
In less than two years she could
pay off the national debt. The
hen’s business for one day in one

can be raised and are raised in
this vicinity.
Death of Mr. Asa Playet.
After an illness of about ten
days, Mr. William Asa Player,
of Abba, Ga,, died Thurday the
22, at 10 o’clock a. m. Mr Plyer
‘was a fine specimen of young,
and vigorous manhood having
but recently reached twenty-five
years of age. He was a man of
sterling worth and integrity;
one who held the esteem and ad
miration of all who knew him.
He was quiet, gentle, unobtru
sive in manner, yet firm and un
shaken in his convictions, and
possessed all the eclements that
make a strong chrlstian chara
cter. No storied urn records
the life of this gentle man, but
the hearts of his loved ones, and
friends bear testimony of him.
The burial services were held in
the quiet little church where he
usually worshipped. There was
no pomp and ceremony to usher
him to his last earthly resting
place, but beautifully tenderly,
and lovingly, his friends laid him
to rest. He is survived by a
loving wifeand two little chil
dren, a father and oue brother.
