Georgia, Friday, Feb ,t 6 K>2.s 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. FOR RENT— Latimer land in edge of Comer. ' Two Dwelling Houses W. P.

J Tyner 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.
