ff Locals Brought Forward, j
Postmaster Atkinson has been noti
fied by the Fourth Assistant Postmaster-
General that on and after Feb. 15 R.
F. D. carriers will not be required to
scratch around and hunt loose coins
that may be dropped into the mail-boxes
for the purchase of stamps or money
orders. The department has been forced
to adopt this policy because of the re
sulting delays in the delivery and cot-
lection of mail. After the date named,
therefore, mail carriers will not take
loose coins from the mail-boxes along
their routes. Persons in need of stamps
must see the carrier in person and make
such purchases as may be required for
letters or other mail matter to be .dis
patched.

The Herald and Advertiser regrets to
note the death of Mrs. H. A. Martin,
which occurred on Wednesday of last
week at her home near Moreland. De
ceased wsb a most estimable woman,
and will be sincerely mourned by a wide
circle of friends. She was a consistent
and faithful member of the Baptist
church at Moreland, and at the time of
her death was president of the Woman’s
Foreign Missionary Society of her
church—a cause in which she was al
ways interested, giving much of her
time and means to this great work of
the Lord. The funeral was held Thurs
day, Dr. S. B. Cousins conducting the
services, and a large number of friends
were present to pay their last sad re
spects to the memory of this good wo
man.
Oh, how sad Is death, especially to
read of the death of ones life-long friend,
brother and comrade. Such was the
news conveyed to the writer of the
death of Dr. A. C. North, of Newnan.
Over half a century the writer has
known this good man and all these
years Dr. North has seemed to the
writer “a man after God’s own heart,”
ready and willing at all times and un
der all circumstances. He was a true
friend to suffering humanity as a pi.
sici-rn, a comforter indeed as a soldier
of Christ. He was an ideal Christain.
Gone home to rest, good-bye brother
’till we meet again on the happy golden
shore. To his loved we extend our
Mr. Ira L. McCord, of New York,
the contractor who has undertaken the
work of construction of the Western of
Georgia Railway, spent Monday last in
this city, conferring with the directors
of the road, and with others, regarding
the work on the railway. It developed
that a part of the right of way is yet
unsecured, and Mr. McCord is very
anxious that the entire course be se
cured at once, as he is now in position
to commence the actual work of con
struction just as soon as the complete
right of way is in possession of the
railway, and some few other prelimina
ries are arranged. It is very important
for the success of the undertaking,
therefore, that all parties whose landB
are crossed by the line of the proposed
road make deed3 to the railway for the
right of way. Just as soon as this is
done, the officials of the road are con
fident that work will be commenced,
and the construction of the road will be
pushed to completion.
is now with his uncle, Major Grace, in
Newnan, having been wounded. ”
Charles Grace is long since dead, as is
his uncle, Major Thos. Grace; but his
cousin, Mr Walter C. Grace, is yet liv
ing;, being a resident of this city.
Even the temperate compositor fre
quently sets ’em up.
The disgrace of poverty lies in the
inconvenience thereof.
Information Wanted.
Mr. R. E. Simms is in receipt of a
letter from Mrs. David Bates, of Lees
burg, Ala., in which she asks Mr.
Simms to aid her in establishing proof
of her deceased husband’s service in
the Confederate army. Mr. Simms is
anxious to get all the information ob
tainable, and has written the following
lerter, which he asks The Herald and
Advertiser to publish :
“Newnan, Ga., Feb. 2, 1910.
“To all Confederate Veterans : I re
ceived a letter a few days ago from
Mrs. David Bates, the widow of an old
Confederate soldier, asking me to aid
her in getting up proof that David
Bates was a soldier in the Confederate
army. Now, all I know about Mr. and
Mrs. Bates is that they lived with us
on the farm back in the 60’s, whgn I
was a boy, and I remember them as
good and industrious people. Of course
I would glad to see her get the help
she asks for, as she is getting old and
feeble and is very much in need of it.
She lives now at Leesburg, Ala.
“Yours with best wishes,
“R. E. Simms.”
Who Killed Gen. Sedgwick?
The LaGrange Reporter has been
shown an old copy of that paper, print
ed during the Civil War, in which the
following item appears:
“It is believed that Charlie Grace, of
the LaGrange Light Guards, detailed as
a sharpshooter, is the man who put a
period to the mortal existence of the
Yankee General Sedgwick, who was
killed in one of the recent battles in
Virginia. It is known that on the day
Sedgwick was killed Grace took a fair
aim at sow® general officer of the Yan
kee army, who was riding up and down
his lines, and the said officer was seen
to fall. We have seen it stated in an
extract from a Northern paper that
Sedgwick was so riding when the fatal
missile reached him. Charles Grace had
been a gallant soldier, and had been in
service ever since the war began; and if
; ny man deserves promotion for gal
lantry and bravery, he is the man. He
