A Tribute of Love.
Wo mourn us we see our loved
ones falling one by one, yet when
they fall with the armor on, we
should rejoice that the victory is
theirs.
On the evening of Oct. 14, 1896,
the death angel visited the home
of our sister, Fannie Barron, and
claimed for its victim her eldest
daughter, Etta, who was sick only
a short time of fever. If she had
lived until Oct, :21st, she would of
have been eighteen years old. The
subject of this sketch was in every
respect a lovable young lady, and
has many friends in this cotnmun
ity who greatly deplore her death.
Her greatest pleasure seemed to lie
in making her loved ones happy.
She loved her friends and relatives
devotedly, and made them feel and
know it by her untiring attentions
when about them. She loved her
home so much that she could not
be induced to stay away from it
more than a few days at a time.
During a series of meetings at
Pleasant Grove Baptist church,
just a few weeks before her death,
she was happily converted, the ev
idence being so plain that we
doubt not in the least that she is
now at rest in the arms of Jesus.
It was her greatest desire to join
the church and be buried with
Christ in baptism, but was de
prived of that privilege on account
of severe illness. It seemed to
bear on her mmd so strongly, that
even after she became delerious,
she would talk of wanting to be
baptized.
We in our finite minds cannot
solve the problem: we cannot un
derstand why she was so soon
snatched away—but we will not
question His omuipiteuce—but
Youths and Boys.

take comfort and consolation in
the thought that “celestial bene
dictions sometime assumes such a
dark disguise.” We surely know
she has exchanged earth’s dross
for purest gold, and is now reaping
what she has sown. May the de
voted mother who is bowed with
an anguished heart, bow in humble
submission to Him who ordereth
all things well. May her heart
be attuned to His, who said,
with bowed head and burst
ing heart, “not my will, but thine
be done.” May the little brothers
and sisters, who will sigh “for the
touch of a vanished hand”—be
comforted by th6 dew of His mer
cy from Heaven—realizing that
Sister's goal is giined, her prize
already won and that some sweet
day there will be a reunion in the
field of Eden where the hopes and
expectations of all. will be realized
around the great white throne
Let us all live that when our sum
mons comes to join that innumer
able caravan we may willingly and
calmly approach the grave: “Like
one who wraps the drapery of his
couch about him and lies down to
pleasant dreams.”
Therefore be it resolved,
1. That as a Sabbath school we
shall keep her life iu lasting re
membrance.
2. That this expression of our
feelings be tendered to the family
and that a copy be sent to the
Summerville News with a request
to publish.
Respectfully submitted.

When the Chattanooga, Rome and
Columbus road was projected some
years ago several of our citizens sub
scribed to the stock, with the hope
that iu some way or other Newnan
would he benefitted by the building of
the road. It was soon apparent that
this hope would never be realized, and
some of those who subscribed refused
to pay. Mo effort was made to compel
the payment of these subscriptions,
and as the road was put in the hands
of a receiver shortly after its comple
tion to Carrollton, nothing further lias
been heard of the matter. In settling
up the affairs of the bankrupt company
however, the receivers have decided to
make an effort to collect all unpaid
subscriptions outstanding on the books
and a good deal of spirited litigation is
likely to follow.—Newnan Herald and
Advertiser.
There has been great complaint re
cently from land owners and farmers
in various parts of the county of bird
hunters who come from a distance and
hunt and trespass on their lands with
out permission. These hunters kill
the birds in large quantities and ship
them home. Unless something is
done to protect the birds they will soon
become extinct.
We are receiving daily the very
newest and latest styles in Fall Millin

prices that will astonish you for their
cheapness. Call and see.

Dr. J. M. Watkins, of Opelika,
while visiting a patient, broke a
phial of carbolic acid that was in
his hip pocket. It ran down his
leg and w as absorbed by his system
so quickly that he became insensi
ble and was nearly dead when an
other doctor, Dr. J. G. Palmer
reached him and saved his life.
The Summerville News is a
most excellent paper since it has
been enlarged to a six column
quarto. The woman’s department
edited by that gifted and talented
young lady, Miss Edna Cain, is a
special feature of that paper. Her
writings would grace the pages of
any metropolitan paper. There is
a great future in store for Miss
Cain.—Southern Argus.
SOME TRAIN ORDERS,
The Cancelling of Train Order
No. 1 Follows the Election.
The Bryan railroad men had a
neat little card with the following
“train orders” printed upon it, and
it was considered quite rich:

between Wall street and Cleve
land. Keep sharp lookout for
train-wreckers, Cleveland and Car
lisle, between Chicago and New
York. J. K. Jones,
Dispatcher.
John W. Daniel, Operator.
As will be seen from the follow
ing, a “28,” or “message for all,”
has been substituted:
TRAIN ORDER NO. 2.
Order No. 1 is cancelled and
Bryan and Sew all’s special is an
nulled; account blockaded in
snowdrift ten miles east of Lincoln.
Ti'lman and Altgeld’s wrecking

Tuesday morning, about 10
o’clock, while on his way home
from Spring Place, Col. James Mc-
Camy was thrown from his ho"se
and received very dangerous if not
fatal injuries. He is at the Tem
ple House and has only partially
regained consciousness. His right
arm wasbrokenand it was thought
he sustained internal injuries in
the region of his hips. It is not
known just how he was thrown
from the horse, as, when found
by James A. McGhee, he was lying
in the road. We hope he will soon
rally and resume his place as one
of the foremost citizens of North
Georgia.—Spring Place Jimple

All parties are warned not to hunt
or trespass on my enclosed lands in
