So many Witches and ghosts flit and moan about and generally flaunt Spring vale park that T. L.

Percy and J. H. Por ter head petitioners who want the lake made ov r into a sunken garden. Perhaps the board will adopt Mr. Bond's suggestion. Anyway, its mem bers .Hi investigating his emphatic claim that hobgoblins can't abide a salted Jicld and if their probe shows that ghosts do really cavort o' nights about that park, as many folk there abouts avow, nobody need wonder at se®ing a plowman plodding his way through ony of the fairest strips of ■ land in all Atlanta, nor marvel if, sud denly, the saline trust increases its prices.

It is still quite well remembered that she was a poor girl w ho had journeyed ' to Atlanta from some outlying town in a desperate hope that she would find work here and a chance to earn the honorable living that 'he craved. She found no work, and after many days when the last of her money was gone she made hJr waV one evening to the ' dark pond of water in the heart of , Springvale and took the life that she ! thought hopeless.
