Cleghorn Camp of Confederate Veterans held at the court house here last Saturday morning, a res olution was introduced and carried setting apart the first Tuesday in i each month for the monthly meeting !of this camp. Judge John W. Maddox of Rome present as a visitor, gave an inter esting account of the work and management of affairs by the con federate veterans of Floyd county. He urged the veterans of this camp to organize for a def finite work and have a deffinite purpose. Commander Brownfield announced very important business for the No ' vember meeting and urged all the comrades to be present then. It is believed that this camp will ; then make a thorough organization i for the work of caring for widows I and comrades who may be in need or distress as suggested by Judge; Maddox. On adjourning the veterans, with ; their friends relatives and guests 1 retired to the famous Big Spring for the annual picnic. The ladies had prepared a bountiful and delightful dinner which was much enjoyed by all present. One of the old "boys” said that if they could have had such rations back in the sixties they certainly would have whipped the yankees. After the delightful dinner hour all gathered around the Big Spring and Judge Maddox who was pres ent as a special guest, graciously I responded to an invitation to speak to the “boys.” Judge Maddox is a very interesting and eloquent speaker who impresses ' you with the thought that he is sin- j cere in every utterance. He said it was a most delightful I day to him although he felt depressed with painful memories caused by ab sence of comrades of other days: and that it was always a peculiar pleasure to him to come back toI Chattooga county where his friends j called him “John.” He explained in clearest terms the I causes of our great civil war and eloquently described the hreoic strug- i gle made by the South and the suf fering endured during those dark days. You could see the tears in the eyes of the heroes of the lost Cause as ; Judge Maddox called to memory the i scenes and incidents of other days. Never was there a more charming day for a reunion and all went back to their homes feeling that it was good to have heard the instructive and eloquent address of Comrade Mad dox. May he live long to tell the marvel ous story of the Lost Cause. Mr. J. J. Cochran Dead. The news of the sudden death of Mr. J. J.
