I read Bov. Robt. H. Harris’ sketch
‘Little Newnan Boys of the Early Fif

last week, with a good deal of interest,
said Mr, J. W. Cooley, of the Hurricane
district, Saturday. “I noted one mis
take in a name, though. Billy Martin’s
brother was named Ilalllo, not Hollis.
I also recall another one of the ‘little
boys’ as yet living, and that is Dandy
Argo, who has for several years resided
in Carroll county. His brother, ' Gin ’I,
was killed in the fighting around Vicks
burg. Mr, Harris’ rominisences brought
to my iniiuj many of the ‘little boys
whose names were mentioned, whom I
knew well in later years.”
Mr, Wm. II. Banks, whose illness was
mentioned in Tho Herald lust week, pass
ed away Friday morning at his home in

with the old Seventh Georgia regiment,
and remaining in the service until the
cl oho of the war. He was one of Cow

and hod many friends throughout the

DEATH OF JUDGE J. S. POWELL,
After a lingering illness, covoring n
period of nearly five yours, Judge J. S.
Powell passed away at Mb home here
at 9 o’clock Saturday morning, causing
deep griof to tho friends who loved him
and mom-nod by tho entire community.
Judge Powell had n distinguished cn-
reor. Adopting law as his ehoson pro
fession, ho was admitted to tho bar in
tho onrly ’80’s and entered at onco into
tho practice. Time after tlmo he was
called by his follow-citizens to tho offico
of mayor, and his splendid administra
tion of the city’s affairs is yet remem
bered by our people. At tho outbreak
of the Spanish-American war ho was ap
pointed to a capacity by Gov. W. Y.
Atkinson, nnd lator assigned with Ms
command to Cuba, whore he was on duty
about two yours. When tho war ended
nnd the army of occupation was with
drawn from Cuba 1m was transferred
with his company to tho Philippine Is
lands, and saw activo servico thoro until
902. In that year ho was ehoson by
President McKinley to bo judge of nno
of tho six iiiBular courts established when
tho United States acquired tho islands.
Ho hold this position uunitomiptoclly
until the summer of 1917, wlion liiii
health began to fail and ho resigned anil
came homo. Ho did not improve after
his return, however, tho insidious inul-
ndy which lmd wrecked Mb health nnd
the hopes of his family and friends
never relaxing its hold throughout the
long, anxious months that preceded Ids
death.
Ah soldier, jurist and citizen, Judge
Powell measured up to tho high stan
dards attained only by those who put
duty above all things else, und that he
was faithful to every duty laid upon him
is a shining mark in tho record 1m has
loft bohind. Indeed, he was a full-sized
man, measured by every standard, and
his untimely death is a loss to his State
and to the nation.
BosMcb Ids widow, Judge Powell leaves
seven children, viz; Col. Orman Powell,
of Corpus Christ!, Texas; Col. Tom
Powell, of Manila,, l 1 . I.; Miss Lutie
Powell, of Atlanta; Mr. J, 8. Powell,
jr., of Florida; Mr. Elwyn Powell, of
Carrollton; Mrs. Wclborn Davis and Col.
J. W. Powell, of Newnan. He is sur
vived also by two brothors nnd a sister
Miss Annie Powell and Mr, Mike Powell,
of Nownan, and Mr. Rapli Powell; of
Savannah.
The funornl took' place nt the rose
dcnco on Spring street Sunday after

ducted by Rov. J. E, Hannah, the body
was conveyed to Oak Hill cemetery,
