car expecting some sort of acknowledg
ment of tho tribute which, they sought
to pny him; but, instead, an attendant
put his head out at tho door and an
nounced that Marshal Focli had not yet
risen and cogld not show himself. There
was a ehorus of ‘ 1 Ohs I ” and “ Alls I ” ns

WEST POINT RETURNS 10 PER
CENT. OF NEWNAN’S CON
TRIBUTION.
Wlien West Point suffered so honvlly
two years ago from the flood which
swopt over that town Nowimn raised
$7,200 for t.ho relief of tho Htriukoo city,
mid thought no more about it, regret
ting only that tho contribution had not
boon ’larger. Imagine tho surpriso of
the local committee, therefore, whon a
chock for $720 was received a few dnys
ago from tho relief committee at Wont
Point, accompanied by a statement that
all losses sustained in that disaster lmd
boon pnid and that u surplus remained
amounting to 10 per cent, of t.ho total
contributions received, and that this sur
plus wns being refunded to tho, towns
which contributed to tho relief of tho
flood sufferers. When tho members of the
local relief committee lmd recovered from
their surpriso thoy hold a consultation to
determine the host disposition to be made
of tho $720 refunded, and doclded to
donate linlf of tho amount to the Benev
olent Union. Tlio remainder is in tho
hands of Mr. T. J. Fisher, treasurer of
the relief committee. Any contributor
to the funjl raised for tho flood sufferers
two years ago who desires a refund of
10 per cent, of Ids contribution Is ro
quested to seo Mr. Flshor at once. If
no Bitch demand is made tho remainder
of the sum refunded by West Point will
be turned over to tho Benevolent Union,
which is having more coIIh for .assist-
unco from the sick and destitute than It
has boen able to relieve,with the means
at Its disposal.
