300 MEN GATHER
AT PIEDMONT
Politics Is Tabooed and the
Guests Vie With Each Oth
er in Compliments to
Gov. Terrell.
In on« of the moot notable gatherings
ever aeeembled In Georgia near 300
splendid men, representing every walk
of life, gathered about the banquet
board In the Piedmont Hotel Thureday
evening to pay generoue and sponta
neoua honor to the etate'a retiring
chief executive, Joseph M. Terrell.
Looking down the long tables one
saw representative men from every
part of the state, and representing al
most every county. For the nonce all
wounds and scars of political stress
were laid aside, and men gave to the
man who had steered the ship of state
for almost five years the glowing eu
logies of genuine esteem and affection.
No banquet was ever better planned,
more perfectly served or freer from
the elements that sometimes make such
occasions tiresome. The main rotunda
and the great dining hall were pro
fusely and beautifully decorated with
flags and bunting.
Flowers for Mrs. Tsrrell.
And the speakers In their words of
hearty commendation ran all the
gamut of human emotion, now moving
from whlmnloal humor to deep and
tender pathos. But nothing seemed to
touch the govornor so profoundly as
when Toesti.aster John M. Hinton, in
opening the evening, paid exquisite
tribute to the love, the helpfulness and
the devotion of the governor’s wife, and
said that though she was denied the
pleasure of being present, a great and
fragrant bouquet of roses had gone to
her from those who had gathered there.
At the southern end of the dining
hall the table of the guest of honor
was placed, facing ths others. At this
■ table were: Governor Terrell, John M.
Slaton, Dr. W. IV. Landrum, Captain
J. W. English, Captain H. J. Lowry,
General W. H. Edgerly, J. It. Terrell,
■Hamilton McWhorter, Professor M. L.

Tributt to tht Mtn.
The tenor of t lie post-prandial ad
dresses was a tribute not to much to
the governor and the man who had
served hi* state so long and faithfully,
but to the Southern gentleman, the
loyal friend and the soon-to-be •"state’s
most distinguished private cltlxen."
Toastmaster Slaton, in his few Intro
ductory remarks, said that the occa
sion was proof of Dr. Humu*»l John
son's assertion that friendship Is the
noblest of pleasures.
Hegret was felt that Judge Joseph
R. Lamar, of Augusta, was prevented
from attending by illness, but his ex
cellent paper on "Governor Terrell’s
Administration" was rend With fine ef
fect by Professor M. L. Brittain. It
was a serious treatment of the gov
ernor's administration for five years.
Unquestionably the hit of the even
ing was the "Personal Reminiscence"
of Judge A. J. Hinton, the venerable
ordinary of Meriwether, the governor’s
home county, for over thirty years. It
was tilled with homely humor and the
tenderest of sentiments, and Judge
Hinton was Interrupted many times by
the applause and bursts of hearty
laughter.
So personal allusion to the governor's
early struggles won such prolonged
mirth as the Incident of his first case.
An old farmer employed him to sue for
a hog, and a verdict of $fl was rendered.
The governor generously turned over
fl to his client, .who, ns he slipped the
money Into his pocket, said:
"flay, bud, whoso hog was that any
way?"
Drink to Hoalth In Water.
Dr. John K. Whlto’a tribute to "A
Southern Gentleman'' was an exquisite
R rose poem. Dr, White said that the
onored guest of the evening was a
man without bitterness or resentment,
a loyal friend, a Just foe, and one who
carried with him always sunshine—the
highest evidence of a Southern gentle
man.
He closed with a beautiful reference
to the Chattahoochee, whose waters
were tho only beverage of the evening,
and a toast was drunk to the governor,
standing.
Loving Cup Presented.
With Hon. P. A. Stovall’s personal
tribute be presented to the governor a
handsome silver loving cup os a slight
testimonial of the occasion and of the
lovo and esteem of those present. As
tho handsome cup was placed In front
of the governor, his eyes filled with
tears, and the great hall shook with the
applause.
Fearful that his emotions would over
come him. Governor Terrell had placed
his remarks on paper. His brief speech
was deeply appreciative of the tributes
paid him, and he said that it was com
pensation a thousand fold for at} that
remembrance held of labor undergone
and of anxiety and care endured.
There followed three-minute tributes
of tenderness and affection from Hon.
John T. Bolfeulllet, Judge Hamilton
McWhorter, Judge John T. Pendleton,
Hon. J. K. Orr, Dr. David Marx, Hon.
Dudley M. Hughes and Judge Joel
Branham, The talk of Dr. Marx was a
poetic gem.
Though the ban has been placed on
mention of his name, The Georgian Is
not content without saying that to the
success of arranging all the details of
the banquet, largest credit Is due one
of Governor Terrell's warmest friends
and one of the finest gentlemen In the
land—Fred J. Poxon, of Atlanta.
