Tidings of tlio death of this old
citizen of Milledgevilie reached us on
Tuesday last by telegram. He was
sojourning at the time of his death
with ids daughter, Mrs. L. C.
Hall. nee.Miss Mollie Hunter, at her
home, Dardauelle, Ark., to which
place ho wont from this city about
three months ago. He was in a very
feeble state of health when he left,
aud many of his friends in bidding him
farewell did not think they would ev
er see him in life again.
Col. Hunter was born uoav Lynch
burg, Va., about 74 years ago. When
a young man he came to Georgia
with tho late Col. L. N. Whittle of
Macon, and was employed as a civil
engineer on the line of the Macon and
Western It. It. Subsequently lie was
employed to survey the line of the
present Milledgevilie and Gordon It.
It. He was twice married. By his
first wife lie had one son, still living.
His last wife, whom he married in
1849, was Miss Frances, eldest daugh
ter of the late Judge Iverson L. Har
ris, by whom lie had six sons and
three daughters, all living and grown.
Col. Hunter held many positions, dur
ing his residence in this city, of hon
or and responsibility. He was for
several years agent of the Planter’s
Bank of Savannah in this place. He
was chief engineer of a party who
were employed by the State to sur
vey the Okefenokee Swamp, and his
report was a valuable one, eliciting
mnch new and important inform*
tion. Ho was Secretary of the Exec
utive department during Gov. Jenk
ins’ administration. For several years
lie was connected with both the
Southern Recorder and the Union-
Rkcobdkr, after the consolidation of
the two papers. He held the offices
of city and county surveyor for a
number of years.
His remains, accompanied by his
sons, William and Charles, reached
tliis city Friday by the 2 p. m. Central
train and were carried to the Presby
terian church, of which he had long
been an elder, and the funeral servi
ces took place at half past four p. m.,
the pastor, Rev. Donald McQueen, of
ficiating. Here a largo number of his
relatives and friends were assembled
to attest their love and respect for
the memory of the good man. In the
procession to the cemetery there
walked, next to the hearse, a number
of our old citizens, who were special
friends of the deceased during his en
tire residence in this city, and a num
ber of old family servants accom
panied the remains to their last rest
ing place.
The pall-bearers were three of his
sons, Richard, William and Charles,
and three nephews, Louis Andrews
Louis Hall and Marion Harris.
The end with our old friend was not
sudden, or did it find him unprepared
for the change. He had lived long,
and he had time to take a calm and
deliberate view of his past life and
the great mystery called death, bnt
not a mystery to him, for he saw
nothing mysterious about It; all was
plain and clear to his vision as to his
approaching hereafter. He was a
deep thinker, a close reader, a pa
tient listener, n correct writer, a fas
cinating conversationalist and as
truthful a man as ever breathed. He
grew old as gracefully as any man
we ever knew. He was, to sum up
his character in a few words, a
gentleman and a Christian. He was
tho personification of politeness,
and though one of ttie best in
formed men in Georgia, on all sub
jects outside of a specialty, lie was
modest and disinclined to push his
advantages and power though con
scious of liis ability to stand with the
foremost. Ho was the writer's friend
through forty years of sunshine and
shadow. We stood by him at the
bridal and drop a tear at his tomb.

An Enterprising City.
Our recent trip to Milledgevilie was
our second visit to that place and
though onr attention during the day
was chiefly aontined to the ball
ground and the rain shnt us in at
night, we could not help but be im
pressed with the thrift and enter
prise of the place. Our impressions
were chiefly confirmed by the spirit
of enterprise which seemed to be
breathed by her citizens and to per
vade the very atmosphere.
The most noticeable outgrowth of
this new spirit of enterprise which
has taken hold upon her people and
the one which is most apparent to
a stranger is Milledgeville’s new dum
my line railroad, from the depot to
the asylum, a distance of two miles.
A dummy road was quite a venture
for Milledgevilie, and it has only been
in operation a short while, but its
gratifying success has confirmed the
confidence of the people in their
growing city and encouraged thorn to
renewed efforts. ,
But the most interesting feature to
hb was the connection of the recent
rapid growth of the town with ite
building associations, as explained to
ns by an enthusiastic citizen. These
building and loan associations have
been in a large measure responsible
for the number of new buildings re
cently erected. Milledgevilie posses
ses three, of these associations, the
oldest not more than three yeabs old,
tire youngest just organized, and yet
these associalions have been directly
responsible for the building of over
fifty houses. These associations put
fifteen hundred dollars a month into
buildings, and the expense is lightly
borne by the members, as the amount
is drawn from the pockets of a large
number and so does not bear heavily
upon any one. The money put Into
these associations, instead of being
simply contributed to the town out
of public spirit, is really the most
profitable investment that could be
made. The shares in the oldest as
sociation are now worth much more
than the amount of money put in hy
the holders and regarded as valuable
property. The people of Milledge-
villo liuvo found these associations so
profitable that they have recently or
ganized another one on the same
basis, with the same general intent
and purpose. These building and
loan associations have aided in build
ing up many other cities besides Mil-
ledgeville, but their practical work
ings so near home brought forcibly
to our mind the thought that this is
just what wo need in Warrenton aud
if we ever expect to build up tho town
the best way to begin is with a build
ing and loan association.
The Milledgevilie Hotel, kept by
Mr. F. B. Mapp, furnishes good evi
dence of Milledgeville’s flourishing
condition. The Hotel is kept in the
be6t of style and is a worthy rival of
the best hotels of the state.
While in Milledgevilie we had the
pleasure of meeting and conversing for
quite a while with our friend and for
mer fellow citizen Joseph E. Pottle,
a Warrenton boy held in deservedly
high esteem by the people of Mil-
ledgeville. We also made an aequain
tance of Col. John T. Allen, a promi
nent citizen of Milledgevilie and
young attorney of growing fame
his section of tho state. We shall
take the first opportunity of again
visiting Milledgevilie and her clever,
enterprising people.—Warrenton Clip-
