Once the cat was out of the bag, however, Mr. Smith-Cuyler met the demand of the reporter for a story in fine style, and announced in addition his intention of publishing a book soon. The book, he says, is just what its name implies—a'digest of wills made out by Georgians who lived during the colonial period. The wills in which the author is particularly In terested are contained in two musty old volumes, dating back to 1772, which were dug up among the ar chives of the State compiler of official records. Indicative in every way of the times which they record,, these old will books. Mr. Smith-Cuyler declares, set at rest forever the old contention of historians that the Revolutionary War times were characterized by violent and unexpected disturbances, change of habit and custom and the like. To prove his own contention Mr. Smith-Cuyier merely turns a musty, moth-eaten page or two—carefully, for time has left its mark—points'to the marvelous penmanship of one Whitfield, clerk and ordinary in co lonial Savannah, written before the war, and then turns several pages to another sample of this gentleman’s handwriting, written after the war. The meaning, Mr. Smtih-Cuyler ex plains—but to make a long story short, it is satisfactory. Evidently, the good dames of old Savannah did spank their youngsters just as hard during the war and after as they did before the great struggle for liberty.
