the instrument in the hands of God for
the accomplishment of much good, and
the people of Athens will give him up
with great regret, should his resigna

It is to be hoped that Dr. Gwaltney
will yet find the way clear in his mind
and conscience to remain in Athens,
where he has made so many friends and
where he is doing so uiuoh good.

But It Was Lons Enough to Set People
to Talking About it.
A few days since Mr. B. O. W. Rise
of the police force, was sick and during
one afternoon his place was filled by
Mr. Jack Potts.
And in a short while thereafter con
siderable talking was being done by
some citizens on the ground that Mr
Polts was not a proper man to have on
the police force as he was according to
testimony before the police commission
implicated in the treatment given Mr.
W. H. Lowe at the rcom of Moj C. C
Dean.
The action of the police committee
has been taken and officer Pope Davis
bad been suspended on account of
being along with Mr. Lowe on that
night with knowledge of the affair as
the committe decide'’, and yet here was
a man put on the force for a whole
afternoon who had according to testi
mony before the police committee been
absolutely inside the room.
Such very naturally led to inquiry
and talk on the part of the people.
Chief Davis when seen by the re
porter said he had no explanation to
make in regard to the matter.
Alderman G rdine, who is chairman
cf the police committee, said that he
knew nothing of the matter until it
was reported to him.
Council meets next Monday and it is
rumored that this matter will be con
sidered along with the report of the
police committee’s report.
The whole affair should ba given a
thorough sif: ing before Council in pub,
l<c session, and the whole truth iu re
gard to the matter made known that all
parties may have justice iu the verdict
the public may form.
