CORRECTION.
In the article on the first
page deash of this of ‘uncle pa.per John chromcjing Ham- j
the
ilton, an error occurs in the
date of his birth. He was born
December 21, 1824, instead of
1814.
Fitzsimmons punched Car
bett in the region of the heart
in the fourteenth round and
made nearly fifty thousand
dollars. Wasn’t that a stunner?
Bruffey, of the Constitution?
Present! Bruffey was writing
specials for his paper dated
from Shaw’s springs and Cook’s
ranch, two days in advance of
other reporters from Atlanta.
Ho may have been a thousand |
miles short of his post mark,
but his news was of the older
the satisfied the boys.
JAIL CONTRACT LET.
As advertised, last Monday,
thel5fh,was the day set for
opening and considering the
bids for building the new j.ni.
A number of bidders were on
hand from diflerent cities, all
representing good concerns.
The committee met with tin.
Ordinary and the bids uucali
opened and duly conoiden-.l.
At the conclusion of this woi U
it was announced that the bid
of Mr. F. ih Hefner, of Atlanta,
was accepted, ibis bid was
the sum of $4,<50. dust as
soon as all preparations '-an be
made work on the building w ill
be commenced.
Spalding county is also to
have a new jail In speaking
of the matter the Griffin News
says: “The plans selected yes
terday are tliose of Golucke &
Stewart, Atlanta architects, and
are for a two-story edifice.
The plans are the same as those
already adopted for the Conyers
jail.” setting
There is nothing like
the pace and this is what our
ordinary and committee have
done, and when completed we
■will have a jail worthy the
name and worthy the town-
