BOONE-STRIPLING COMPANY Herald and Hdwrtiscr. NEW NAN, FRIDAY, AUG. 2 7. | Locals Brought Forward. || At the annual meeting of the North and South Georgia Conferences last year a joint committee was appointed to select a permanent meeting-place for both conferences. It is reported that the Warm Springs camp-ground, in Meriwether county, has been ten dered free of charge to the North and South Georgia Conferences as a meet ing-place for those gatherings, as well as for all Methodist assemblages of a general nature. The tract proposed to be donated consists of 104 acres, and is almost on a line between the two con ferences and midway between two fa mous Georgia resorts—Warm Springs and Meriwether White Sulphur Springs. The location is ideal, and besides the meetings already mentioned, an exten sive chautauqua will be held each year. The trustees of Warm Springs camp ground will malce a tender of the proprety to the joint conference com mittee at the meeting of the latter Aug. 30. and it is thought the offer will be accepted. The semi-annual convention of the Twelfth District Knights of Pythias of Georgia will convene in Griffin on Tuesday, Sept. 14.

The meeting there will ad journ at 5 o’clock and the visiting brethren will be given an automobile ride to points of interest in the city, after which a fine barbecue will be served at the Experiment Station, which promises to he a very delightful feature, as the wives and lady friends of the Knights will be invited to attend and eniov the barbecue with the visit ors.

For the third time within a compara tively brief space The Herald and Ad vertiser is called upon to chronicle a death in the’ family of Mrs. Georgia A. Ransom—first it was her husband, then a beloved and promising young son, and now it becomes our sad duty to note the oassing away of the good woman herself. This sorrowful event occurred Sunday, and, while not wholly unexpected, the end came so suddenly as to greatly shock even the members of her family, who for weeks had been watching at her bedside. She had been in failing health for several months, and a few weeks since suffered a stroke of paralysis. She never rallied from this shock, and thereafter death was regarded as a question of only a short time. Mrs. Ransom was 79 years of age, and one of Newnan’s oldest residents. Although confined to the seclusion of her home in recent years by bodily in firmities, she continued to receive her friends, and retained to the last the in terest and spirit which, in her younger days, had rendered her so charming a companion. She was the oldest mem ber of the Presbyterian church, and so long as her physical condition permit- Card of Thanks. As it is impossible for us to see each one personally, we take this method of thanking the good neighbors and friends orr their kindness during the illness of my wife and our mother, and also for their words of condolence and sympa thy in our bereavement.
