A (a /vAy Tr, / ❖ SATURDAY, OCT. 1897 THE FIRST WEDDING IN SEVEN YEARS. For the first time in years has a marriage taken place at Fort Gaines, Georgia. The courtship of Miss Pearl Brown by Mr. Joseph Culpepper was a delight tempered with anxiety to the entire population of Fort Gaines. The announce¬ ment of the engagement was a public joy. Ti e wedding which took place on Tuesday, was the occasion of a celebration which will never be forgotten at Fort Gains. At this moment Mr and Mrs. Culpepper are quite the most popular citizens of the town and their example is held up to the other young peo¬ ple by press and pulpit as one which is not only worthy of emulation, but one which the public good demands should be followed. Fort Gaines is a typical old South Georgia town of 2,500 people. It stands on the high bluff of the Chattahoochee river and for more than half a cen¬ tury has looked down in sleepy content upon the rushing, mud¬ dy stream. The town was once widely known as, a “wide open,” easy going place, aud as the scene of many famous cock fights. From its situation on the border line of Georgia and Alabama, it was a convenient rendezvous for lovers of this sport in both States, and in the old days battles in the pit were known where much money changed hands and more blood was spilled than was drawn by the steel weapons of rho game cocks. It was then one of the most flourishing towns on the river, a favorite trading place for farmers on both sides of the Chattahoochee, and a cotton market of no mean importance. In late years, however, its glory has been somewhat dimmed, its trade lessened and the popula¬ tion has steadily decreased. Moral reform swept over the town. There were no more cock fights in the Town Hall and prohibition closed the doors of the gin shops. This however failed to stay the tide of advers¬ ity, and most calamitious of all calamities the young people re¬ fused to get togathcr locally ex pressed. There was no marry¬ ing or giving in marriage. The last wedding became a tradition. At this moment the cry of a mother’s ‘first joy’ cannot be heard within the town limits, With the notable exception of last week there is not a bride in Fort Gains of fewer than sev¬ en years’ standing! This remarkable state of affairs was not allowed to become a fact without some protest on the part of those who are always surpposed to have the welfare of a town most at heart. Older heads discused it over their stick whittling, parents advised, preachers delivered weekly ex¬ hortations from the three pul pits, and the weekly paper con¬ tained many a ringing protest. “Young people get married, ? * was ev 0 n the leader when noth ing of State or National interest absorbed the editor's mind. In times of great public need ^ like these it seems remarkable that a benefactor should have been so iong appearing. But j times are productive of the man and, in this case of the woman | too. j AN OPEN LETTER To MOTHERS. .

Mr. Culpepper can have any off¬ ice in the gift of his fellow town men. He is the popular candi¬ date for mayor, and will find no opposition if he decides to enter tne race.
