One of the teachers in the City ; school was up before the Board of Education last week for correcting one of the pupilj. After an iuves- i tigation, the teacher was exhon orated, and the obstreperous pupil has been withdrawn from school by his parents. There seems to be no disposition on the part of our leading farmers for a fair this fall, nor for making an exhibit of Gwinnett’s resources at the State fair. The backward season has convinced everybody that this is to be a year of hard work, with little play. Dr. W. J. Rowe, of Buford, was here Monday. While he reported that smallpox in a mild form ex isted in his city, he stated that there was no alarm felt and the excitement had about died out. Twc or three new cases developed this week, but none of the pa tients are dangerously ill. Judge John P. Webb ig proving to be one of our most wide-awake and progressive citizens.

Lawrenceville, April 24. — To my friends in Gwinnett Coun y: There appeared a very humiliating item in The News-Herald against me last week.

Sexton, better known as Aunt Margaret, died at her home four miles east of Lawrence ville Saturday, April Bth, after a short illness. The body was in terred at old Prospect cemetery on Monday, before a large concourse of relatives and friends. Aunt Margaret was well advanced in years—perhaps about 80. She was the mother of four children, two daughters and two sons. One son and the two daughters preceded her to the spirit land, She leaves behind one sou and an aged hus band to mourn after her, who have the sincere sympathy of all who know them. I have known Aunt Margaret since I can remember. A better woman never lived. I have al ways loved her. Many times when I was a little bov I have eat upon her knees and heard her tell “the old, old story of Jesus and His love.” But Aunt Margaret is no longer among us. She has reached the end of her journey. She was a faitbfpl member of the M. E. church,South, at old Prospect, and loved her church, her family and all good people. I thank God for my own satisfaction that Aunt Margaret is today clothed with a spiritual body like unto Christ, resting, sweetly rosting in the Heavenly throng. Thank God for the memory of this good woman. Thos. A. Hasi.ett, Landers—Burges. At the home of Mr. and Mrs. Noah Wiley on last Sunday Mr. James F. Burges was happily mar ried to Miss Linnie Landers.

This is the second time that one of these men have goue to Mr. Perry’s home and abused him that way without auy cause whatever, and it vrill be the same thing over again the first time they get to drinking unless they are ar rested and dealt with according to law.
