\ T OL. XVII, No 86.1
GUY T. PITMAN
BRANDS ARTICLE
IN COURIER A LIE
To my friends and others who
may be interested in knowing the
truth I wish to make this reply to
a slanderous article which appear¬
ed in the Cleveland Courier April
28th under the heading “Rev.
Guy Pittman Jailed”.
1. The warrants sworn out by
Mrs. J. M. Miller of Young Harris
Ga. was without foundation of law
or facts.
2. The statement “It was learn¬
ed that he had slipped his trunk
and suit case from the house Thurs¬
day night” is a he without founda¬
tion.
3. The statement that “Rev.
Pittman’s father at Jackson Ga.
wired the money to the bank here”
is another lie.
4. Another article in the .
of May 12th which says in sub¬
stance that I went to Young Harris
to rectify a mistake about my try¬
ing to beat a board bill is also
another lie. I left Young Harris
on April 27th on a visit to home
folks intending to return to com¬
mencement, which 1 did, 1 left
my trunk and other things in my
room und money in Young Harris
Bank. Mrs. Miller knew before
hand that I was intending to walk
that 1 was intending to walk across
the mountain that day and that I
had mailed my suit case the day be¬
fore I did not think it necessary to
disturb her slumbers between the
hours of eleven p. in. and five u;m.
to tell her that I had found a way
to ride to Cleveland.

Not Always Pleasant Nor Profitable To
Tell The Truth.
It is not pleasant and profitable
always to tell the truth in the col¬
umns of an newspaper. Men who
have tried this heretofore have al¬
ways come to grief. Only a few
days ago the editor of a paper in
Indiana grew tired of being called
a liar, and announced that he would
tell the truth in the future; and the
next issue of the paper contained
the following items :
“John Bonin, the laziest mer¬
chant in town, made a trip to Bell¬
eville yesterday.
“John Coyle, our grocer man, is
doing a poor business. TI is st ore is
dirty and dusty. How can he do
much ?
“Rev. Styx preached last Sunday
night on Charity. The sermon was
punk.
“Dave Sonkey died at his home
m this place. The doctor gave it
out as heart failure. Whiskey kill¬
ed him.
“Married—Miss Sylvan Rhodes
and James Conlin, last Saturday,
at the Baptist parsonage. The
bride is a very ordinary town girl,
who doesn’t know any more about
cooking than a jack rabbit, and
never helped her mother three days
in her life. She is not a beauty by
any means, and has a gait like a
duck. The groom is an up-to-date
loafer. He lias been living off the
old folks at home all his life, and is
not worth shucks. It will be a hard
life,
“The governor of our great state
a very ordinary man, and who was
elected by accident, was here.yester
day. He has very few friends here
mow now. He promised some of the
pie in event of his election, but had
forgotten all about it when the time
to hand over the little office rolled
aroundP’
Whicd reminds us of an Illinois
editor who became tired of wielding
the whitewash in the matter of
obituaries, decided to reform and
tell the truth just once. He com¬
mented ns follows upon the death
of a citizen :
“Died.—Aged fifty-six years, six
months and thirteen days. De¬
ceased was a mild mannered pirate
with a month for whiskey. He
came here in the night with another
man’s wife and joined the church
at first chance, lie owes us several
dollars for the paper, a large meat
bill, and you could hear him pray
six blocks. He died singing ‘ Jesus
Paid It All,’ and we think he is
right; he never paid anything him¬
self. He was buried in an asbestos
casket, and his many friends threw
palm leaf fans in his grave, as he
may need them. His tombstone
will be a favorite resting place for
hoot owls.”

J. P. Cantrell Parers Creamery.
Mr. Editor and Fellow-citizens :
L have been asked by several to
write something for the Courier in
regard to the creamery and milk
and egg route. 1 had the pleasure
about one year ago of visiting a
creamery at Eatonton, Ga. They
were paying 2 6cents per pound for
butter fat. There lias been one
established in North Carolina this
winter that is paying their custom¬
ers 30 cents per pound for butter
fat the way they figure this out for
the whole milk.
I11 the first case I will figure 16
cents per gallon for whole milk,
and the creamery uses only about
20 per cent of the whole. In the
latter case it figures about 19 J cents
for milk, and yet you keep 80 per
cent of the milk at home for chick¬
ens, pigs, calves, etc. 1 don’t think
there has been anything agitated'
that will be worth as much to the
county as this creamery.
I he monthly pay roll at Eatonton
when 1 was there was $400.00 per
month, and they did not have very
many cows—not enough to supply
the demand at least. Let Mr.
\\ illiams call a meeting at the court
house and let us see how many are
interested in this venture. The
creamery can be built if we can get
enough cows to make it pay, and
the more cows the better the cream¬
ery will pay.
Yours-for best interest of While
county.

On the evening f: of June fill) th
avt Wot i
flight to the God who gave it. Mrs.
Ash was born February 8th, 1843,
in the state of Tennessee, and was
married to J. T. Ash, a confeder¬
ate soilder, in the year 1865, in
Dade county, Ga. Mrs. Ash was
a member of Chattahoochee Method
ist. church for years. Only a few
years ago she moved her member¬
ship to Loudsville, where she held
her membership until death. She
was the mother of, five girls and
two boys. Three of the children
together with the husband preceded
her to the grave. Mrs. Ash was
sick only a few days. Everything
was done for her that could be done
by her physicians, children and
friends. She adorned the manifold
relations of life winning the respect
of all whom she came in contact.
She had many trials in life, but
they all seemed to make her a
truer Christian. She bore them
only as a true Christian, ever look¬
ing to Jesus, the giver of life.
She was laid to rest in Louds¬
ville cemetery on the 7th dav of
June by the si vie of her little grand¬
daughter. who passed from life
only a few days before her death.
She has earned the quiet slum¬
ber of the dreemless grave, and
may peace dwell with her ashes,
and angels with her soul. The
funeral services were conducted by
Rev. John Lnderwood. May the
children so live that some day they
will meet her in the golden city
above.

A New Mineral Grinding Mill.
It should be of considerable
terest to people in the country dis¬
tricts to learn that a mill has been
erected in Atlanta, Ga., for the
purpose of grinding various miner¬
al products, such as mica, asbestos,
talc and soapstone.
Many farmers have deposits of
these minerals on their property,
but have never undertaken to get
them out in any qualitity because
of a luck of knowledge of the use
of the mineral and the means of
a ready market.
I understand this mill is in the
market for the purchasing in any
quantities any of these minerals
and they will be glad to i ave cor¬
respondence with interested parties
Samples may be forwarded and will
receive classification and market
prices, and accompanying samples
should be a statement of just how
much material is on hand and to
what extent it is being worked.

Leaf Leaflets.
A great wave of sadness spread
over this entire community when
the news went out that Mrs. Jessie
Kenitner was dead. She died very
sudden. She had been sick for
me time, but it was thought she
as improving. Tuesday morning
je awakened her husband, Mr.
C, Kenitner, in her struggles
f breath, and she was dead in a
•v mijiutes.. She leaves a lius
d ‘ - vet Mliairchirm-en, and
a host" of relatives and friends to
mourn her death. This was one of
the saddest scenes we ever
ed. Those seven little children
left without a dear mother to care
| for them. Jessie was one of my
students in school for three years.
She was one of the best, girls I ever
had in school, kind, gentle,, and a
lovable character, loved by all her
school mates and by all who came
in contact with her. She had no
enemies. She grew into woman¬
hood with all those charms that
make a great and good woman,
every ready to do a kind deed or
act, speak a kind word or give a
bright smile. She always looked
on the bright and sunny side of life
She was a Christian of the highest
type, always emulating the life of
the blessed Christ in her daily walk
and conversation.
“How it. fills our hearts with sadness.
As we speak the last good bye,
But we soon will meet in gladness,’
Where truth and pleasure never die.*’
She Was a good wife, a kind
loving mot her,, a good neighbor and
a kind friend to everyone. She
was laid in Zion cemetery in pre¬
sence of a large congregation. Revs.
Hampton, of Alto, W. R. Power
and YV. K. Dean conducted the
fun ral services. The bereaved
husband and those dear little'
ren have our sincere heartfelt sym
pathy,
Rev Hampton delivered a
sermon at Macedonia Sunday on
bape'sm.
Rev. YV. K Dean says he lias a bee
in his hat, and that when there gets
to be a swarm of bees in his hat he
aims to eat some honey. It’s a
“representative” bee that he is
talking about. Mr. Dean is think¬
ing of making the race for repre¬
sentative against Rep J. B. King
Mr. Dean is a good man, well
qualified to fill the office and not
afraid to talk. Hurrah! for .Mr.
Dean.
