A LETTER OF INTEREST
TO MADISON COUNTY.
Editor Danielsville Monitor;
With you> permission
1 should like to present a matter in
which Danidsville and Madison coun
ty should be deeply interested:
Feme yeans ago, a commission ap
po’nted bv Goy. Centller selected Dr.
Crawford VV. Long as one of Geor
gia's illustrious sons to represent
her in the National Hall of Fame,
the purpose being to place a statue
, f Dr. Long in Statuary Hall of
Fame, the purpose being to place a
statue of Dr. Long in Statuary Hall
in the Rotunda of the National Cap
itol at Washington.
After a good deal oi delay, a i
movement is now on foot to raise by j
popular subscription the sum of ten J
thousand dollars to carry th!;; pur- j
pose into effect. Clarke county,
where Dr. Long spent the lattci part
of his life, i.s trying to raise one thou
,*nd dollars, and more than one half
of this amount has been subscribed
Dr. Long was born and reared in
Danielsville. Many of Ins family
sleep in Madison county soil, and
their defendants are among your
best people today. Daniels
ville and Madison county will want
to have a part in helping to perpetu
the memory of her most illustrious
son.
As you, of course, know, Dr. Long
fame: rests chiefly on the fact of his
discovering the anaesthetic proper
ties of sulphuric either, a discovery
that has meant so much to suffering
humanity.. This claim has been dis
puted, as you no doubt know-, and
monuments have been erected in
the East to honor rival claimants;
and so long as Georgia, and especial
ly this section of Georgia, fails to
furnish some public endorsement of
his claim in the shape of some monu
ment to bis memory, her silence may
be interpreted as an endorsement ot
the other man.
Dr Lo?ig’s claim to priority is now
recognized by practically all the
world, and this movement to place his
statue in the Hall of Fame should
be speedily pushed to completion;
and as one whose Father was born
and reared in Madison county, and
as one who has many warm friends
and near relatives there, 1 want to
see your good people take their full
share in this most worthy enterprise
Other sections of our state are
looking to Madison, Jackson and
Cliarke to take the lead. Are wn?
going to dissapoint them? Will not
some of your public-spirited men, or
women, appoint themselves a commit
tee to organize the work, and make
the canvass?
Hereby tendering you my services
i to assist you in any way I can, I re
jmain, Very truly yours,
S. J. Cartledgo.

A TRIBUTE TO THE MEMORY OF
WILLARD PARKER TABOR
Willard Parker Tabor, the second
son of Mr and Mrs J . C. Tabc r was
born at Fort Lamar, Madison County
twenty eight years ago and died
Jan 19 1923, after a lingering illness
His length of life as we regard years
was short, yet there was a great deal
of time worth lived in those years.
Parker was never any other than a
good boy, possessing a sunny cheer
ful disposition, and being so unsel
fish in bis legard for others, he easi
ly inadt friends wherever his lot was
cast. During his school years his
bright mind enabled him to make
such rapid progress that he was a
joy and an inspiration to his teachers
During the High School period in
the teen age which is so trying to
many boys, he never gave his loved
ones one moments uneasiness for
he was the same trustworthy, depend
able boy that he had always been.
In a quiet way he made life worth
while for many people. When he on
:ercd College he studied very dili
mtly, winning many honors. He
made friends among the best people
and those friends were held through
out the years. So many of them say
now : “What a fine fellow has gone”
“His life meant o much to me” “I
loved him like a brother”- etc etc.
He graduated in 1917 and gave two
of the best years cf his life in the
service of his country. He did not
hesitate when he faced a duty, nor
shrink when he encountered danger.
He knew nothing about putting tivu
| a job half done and despised sham
I work of any kind. During his long
; stay overseas, he did much trying,
j taxing work and it was probably
j while over there he contracted the
| disease from which he died.
After coming 1 :<me he seemed con
tented to settle down to the quiet
life of farming in his old community
Here he found many opportunities
for using the talents God had given
him. The trustees of his home school
requested Idm to teach for them,
which he did for three successive
years with good results, as so many
of his patrons ami pupils testify. He
brought the school up to a three
teacher school and prepared the
High School pupils very diligently for
their life’s work. He not only filled
the Prin. of the High with its much
work and responsibility, but was a
S. S. teacher, Steward in the church
Dfet. S. S. Supervisor, Pres. Kp
worth League and member of the
Board of Education. Besides all
this, lie was seeing after his fanning
interests also.
Those closest to Mm idealized that
be was working tor hard was letting
his buoyant spirit and indomiriable
[energy tax lis strength many times
! too much and they realized too late,
[that the dread disease lad already
[ made much progress before Parker
considered that he even needed at
tention. Parker was very loyal to
his friends, he was especially tender
1 hearted toward those who are “down
and out” No one of that kind ever
called to him in vain. Truly he was
| one < f Natures noblemen and lived
ti e religion that he professed. He
has lived a beautiful life- so gentle
in nature with never any attempt at
! display- nothing artificial, but whol
ly genuine. ID* has loft us nothing to
regret in the life that, be Lived, ex
cept that, it was cut short.
One who knew and loved him.
