WAS GIVEN IMPRE8SIVE AND
RITUALISTIC INTERMENT—REAL
CASKET' DID NOT ARRIVE UN-
TIL NEXT DAY, WHEN MISTAKE
WAS* DISCOVERED.
It is very seldom that a deceased per
son Is accorded two fitting and Impres
sive funerals. It is not the fate of
mankind to bo so honored, even ufior
death. Still less frequently are young
apple trees Interred—set out. as It
were-with funeral and ritualistic
ceremonies. Hut such were the oc
currences at tBallngbroke, fifteen miles
from Macon, only this week.
When Tooger Adams, a negro wo
man. was stabbed and killed here Sat
urday night. t!ie news created some
thing of a sensation among those of
h**r race at Rollngbroke. her home, hut
they recovered from tho shock and
prepared to give the body a tilting
burial. Telegrams were exchanged
with the authorities in Macon, and
from them it was learned that the re
mains would arrive Monday afternoon
ut 1:30 o’clock.
So Monday afternoon there was a
largo concourse at the small depot
when tho train came In. The long
white pine bpx that was roughly
thrown from the express car received
great couslderat'on from the assem
bled negroes, who beeJme very indig
nant at tho manner of its treatment
by the railroad hands. It was tak«*u
to the home of Tom Moore, the closest
relative of the deceased, and put In
the front room, never being opened.
There was a ''setting up" Monday
night In which nearly every negro In
the community participated. There
appeared to be very general grief and
sorrow at the sudden and untimely
taking away of Tooger Adams, Judg
ing from til© weeping and. mourning
Indulged 111 throughout the vigil.
Morning came and found the mourn
ers still sincere In their sorrow and
lamentations, and afternoon brought
the church services and the funeral.
At the church the negro parson
preached a masterly sermon, one that
thrilled his hearers. He took as his
text. "The tree Is known by Its fruits."
and thrilled the bereaved congregation.
The scenes at the grave were Impres
sive as well as heart-breaking. A
bur'al society carried out Its ritual and
ceremonies, while relatives and friends
manifested their woe m various and
unmistakable' ways, as true mourners
should.
The party, numbering about forty,
were returning from the cemetery hap
py In the knowledge tint the beloved
Tooger Adorns lmd been fittingly con
signed to her last resting place, when
the 5:20 trn'n arrived at tho depot,
which was directly on their route.
They watched the arrival and depar
ture of people, and were Interested la
-the careful and deliberate unloading of
a long white pine box similar to the
one they had just handled. Every
mourner was aroused to a high pitch
of exe’tenvnt, for there was possibly
another funeral In prospect. Accord
ingly. a committee inspect' d tho box.
and imagine their astonishment, al
most fright, when they rend the ln-
scrintlon. "This box contains the body
of Tooger Adams.” Then they re
membered that they had not rend the
writing on the bottom of tho other
box. For n minute they wore com
pletely duinfounded, thou fright and
superstition got the bettor of them,
and they rnn.
Their rout, complete as It was, was
halted by Station A sent Hill, who sum
marily halted the tenders and demand
ed the box containing "'Mr. WJoshlp
Cabaniss* apple trees.” "You took It
away from here yesterday." said tho
agent, "and If you don't bring It back
It'll cost you n hundred dollars." When
confronted wjth stern reality, the ne
groes regained I he I" lost nerve ami
collected their shocked senses. The
fact hit hard and deep that they had
buried a box of young apple trees!
Then they thoughtfully .and solemn
ly filed back to the cemetery end dis
interred the saplings. Yesterday there
was another funeral, less Impressive
than the first and the casket behind
which the mourn) rs trailed contained
the remains of Tooger Adams.
