WILL HAVE TO WAIT.
The Old Soldiers Cannot Get
Their Pensions Until the
Legislature Meets.
The old soldiers will not get then
pensions under the indigent pension
law until after the legislature meets.
The following letter from the exec
utive department to the ordinary
will explain:
To the Ordinary: There have been
filed in this office more than 4,000
pension claims under the Act of 15th
December, 1884, and a careful exam
ination shows that it will be entirely
impracticable to pay any of them
until the General Asserat-lv take
some action. As you are aware, the
appropriation made to cover this law
is $30,000.00 which takes tu only
500 claims, whan it is now certain
that it will require a very much larger
sum. While all of the claims now
of file have not been passed on, it is
reasonably safe to say that at least
2,000 will be approved. It has been
suggested that the money iu hand he
paid out prorata but there is nothing
in the law which will justify this
course. It has also been suggested
to pay it to those most in need, but
a moment’s thought will show that
this could not be properly done,
besides every approved claim stands
on the footing with another. Again
it. has been advised to pay it to those
whose claims were first filed, when
that would likely defeat the object
.of the law as it would provide for
those most active, or most diligent,
or best able to care for their own
interest —to the conclusion of the
most helpless. The matter will he
referred to the Genera! Assembly,
and in the meantimes all applications
should be forwarded as soon as pre
pared so that those entitled to the
pension may be enrolled, and provis
'or. made for them by the Legisla
ture.

A Dell toil Fishing Rarfy.
On Wednesday May 29, thro
wagons, crowded with merry young
folks, made their way to the golden
Chattahoochee for a day’s fishing.
The destination was the new county
bridge where Mud creek—almost a
river itself—unites its waters with
the Chattahoochee. The party ar
rived at the river about nine and
toon tun began in earnest.
There was fishing, boating, / hoot
ing, etc., for those inclined that way.
The river banks abound in lovely
shady nooks, where lovers could en
joy love’s young dream to their hearts
content. The mountains abound in
flowers and a more picturesqe spot
can not be imagined anil ’tis useless
to attempt to describe it. Dancing on
the bridge was also the order} of the
day to a great many who had
resolution enougli to dance in
summer time (which I confess
I did not have) Dinner was eaten
about noon, and was one of the most
important events of the day, and if
there is any thing we enjoy more
than a picnic dinner it is more din
ners of the same kind. After dinner
more fishing, boating, eonrting, etc.
went on until after six, when with
our faces set homeward we began
our merry ride, reaching home after
sundown, tired, but wishing we could
spend the day over again. The
party consisted of Messrs. VV. M.
Jones, Charlie Scoggins, T. A. Ech
ols, Oscar Head, R. 11. Harrinton,
F. W. Tallent, Frank Jones, John
Lipscomb, Perry Echols, Richmond
Pouncy, and Walter Jones; Misses
