Signor Filippo Governale Will
Soon Come to Gainesville.
Signor Filippo Governale, whose like
ness is presented herewith', is one of
he most noted violinists in this country.
As stated in The Cracker sometime ago
he has been engaged by Prof. Van
Hoose and Pearce to teach violin at the
Georgia Female Seminary and Conserv
atory of Music, and he will soon arrive.
But it is more gratifying still to know
that he will in future make Gainesville
his home, having been engaged by
Profs. Van Hoose and Pearce-as direc
tor of music at the Seminary. Under
his direction no doubt the department
will grow to Cven greater proportions
than it now is, which is saying quite a
great deal. '
Mr. Shonert- is. - known the Country-
over and the addition to the faculty of
the Seminary is quite_a hit- He will
be the means of drawing n^apy stu
dents to the institution who will come
to get advantages of - his superior in
struction. -

ninety years old, and his days have
been full of good deeds. He has served
his master Well, and deserves the res t

Mified.
