We had determin'd io . conirlbutlons for the Jefferson j>,n. r nument early In the evening md t no more subscriptions.

Vslna eald chat had there been such another period of excitement as marked the day when the project for the cri-tion of a monument to Jefferson Da vis was llrst mentioned, there would have teen lltlie difficulty tn securing the full amount needed.

"Every delegate to the t, onin; wis determined that he ahould haw the office, and w© gave film no tlm to think. We all felt that he was the one man In the state who united ail the attributes that the commander of the di vision ought to pomes? "However," said Col. Ustna. "had Gen. v vans persisted In hla declination. Gen.

A* Oen. Mc ashan did not want the office and os • .re was no one in this section of the lie who did. I am glad I hat the mag ter is not brought to a vote. Had it been - .nth Georgia would certainly have been cognized by the ele tlon of a division •motander from this part of the state." Col.
