v T OL. XXIII, No 82.1
Dawson Bank President Sent
To Chaingang
Gainesville, Ga., May 9.— (Spe¬
cial)—At the adjourned term of
Dawson superior court, at Daw
sonville, today, Hoyt Brannon,
former president and cashier of the
defunct Farmers & Citizens bank,
pleaded guilty to an indictment
charging forgery, and was sen¬
tenced to serve from seven to nine
years on the chaingang. He has
been assigned to Hall county, and
will begin serving his sentence to¬
morrow.
This indictment is one of several
pending against him in connection
with the bank’s failure, over a year
ago. All officers and directors of
the bank are under indictment. All
cases connected with deposits have
been transferred to Hall superior
court, as no jury could be secured
in Dawson county; but several
more cases against Brannon and
other officers, involving forgery
and fradulent statements, remain
to be tried in that county at the
next term of court, the present
term having adjourned.

institute here, which was super¬
vised by Prof. J. O. Martin, had
the privilege of visiting all the
grades in this school. It was in¬

of the different principales and
methods they learned in the differ¬

action what they have learned
there will soon be betfer schools
and brighter students.

POST OFFICE AUTHORITIES
ISSUE WARRANTS FOR S.T.
AND G.B. OWENS, TAMPA
Tampa Fla.—Warrants were is¬
sued this week by the postal
authorities for the arrest of S. T,
Owens and G. B. Owens, who for
several months have been operat¬
ing the Owens Fruit and Produce
Company here. Postoffice Inspec¬
tor H. G. Reese was looking for
the two Owens Tuesday but suc
ceded in finding only G. B. Owens
and he was placed under arrest and
is now out on bond. The United
States marshall at this writing is
still searching for S. T. Owens.
It is understood that the Owens
came here from Moultrie, Ga.
They immediately began sending
circulars to butter, egg and poultry
shipders in the Middle West and
vegetable shippers in the South,
and in almost every instance they
overquoted the market. Shippers
seem to have fallen immediately
for the flowery literature, the at¬
tractive promisies and the high
prices, because the Owens Fruit
and Produce Company has been
doing quite a business for the last
month, and has been underselling
other firms on the market.—The
Packers.
IN MEMORIUM
Miss Lou Freeman died at her
home near Clevelan on Monday,
April 3, after a lingering illness of
of several months.
Miss Freeman was born March
29, 1853, and has always made her
home near Cleveland. She joined
the Baptist church at Cleveland
when quite young and was a con¬
sistent Christian member until her
death.
The funeral services were con¬
ducted at her home on Tuesday
evening, April 4, at 3 o’clock.
Beautiful tributes were paid to the
Christian life of the the deceased by
the speaker, Rev. Power.
See is survived by two sister,
Mrs. Hassie Adams, of Cleveland,
Mrs. A. N. Jackson, of Cleveland,
and one brother, Mr. W. J. Free¬
man, of Okla.
During her illness her sufferings
were intense at times, but she bore
it with a spijit of patiently and
with a spirit that that said : “Thy
^riil be done,” and expressed her
willingness to die.
She was ever aeady to lend a
helping hand. She will be missed
so much in the home, especially by
her sister, Mrs. Adams, to \yhom
she was deyofed. She wtts her
constant companion and never tired
of ministering to her in her hours
of pain.
Though her place is vacant in
the home, dear sister, do not weep,
a vacancy is filled in Heaven.
In the passing of Miss Freeman
we would ask her family and
friends to not think of her as now
sleeping in the cemetery, but think
of her as now being in that “Home
of Many Mansions,” where beauti¬
ful flowers never wither nor fade,
where thare is no more sorrpyy and
parting of loved one^btU alj is joy,
song, and praise, where, sometime,
we will all understand.

“FORDS ARE SCARCE’
If you intend to buy a Ford this Spring or Summer, please let us
have your order at once.
In order to get Ford cars of the type we want, it is necessary for us
to order them from thirty to sixty days in advance of the expected date
of delivery. It is practically impossible for us to order just exactly
what people want unless they give us their demands before we place
order for these cars to be built.
Ford Motor Company is determined that their dealers will never
again be overstocked on Fords. They are only going to build what
we can sell, and no more, so please give us your order. If the pres¬
ent demand for Fords continues new ones will be selling at a premium
in less than thirty days.
