H. J. McCrary, Sec’ty
Mr. Davidson’s Acceptance
Mr. Chairman and Members of the
Senatorial Committee:
1 am not a public speaker, but the
spirit of gratitude grows as well in
my heart as in any man’s, and I wish
to express to you, and through you
to the people of Taylor, Crawford
and Houston Counties, my deep
sense of appreciation for the honor
conferred upon me in my selection
as Senator from this District.
And while I made the race on the
single and sole issue that if elected
1 would seek the creation of a new
county, with Fort Valley as the Coun¬
ty Site, I will endeavor to serve all
the interests of my people impar
tially.
Twice this year the people of
Houston have said that they desire
a division of this county, and in the
Primary of September 8 th., by a
majority vote, they selected me to
seek the passage of the legislation
necessary to secure a new county,
and this will he the first work that
will engage my attention. When this
been accomplished, and when
my services as Senator shall have
ended, I trust and believe that the
people of this District, regardless of
how they voted, on September 8 th.,
will endorse my acts while holding
this honorable position.
It is no light honor to represent
the people of three such counties as
Taylor, Crawford and Houston, and
it will be my earnest endeavor to re¬
flect credit upon you, and I thank
you again for the honor.
