| THE GIGNILLIAT PLACE. |
M
As you go along the walk to the
front steps of this fine old house for
the firet time your Marietta friend will
be sure to point out a great chestnut
tree to the right on the lawn and tell
you the funeral service over General
Leonidas Polk was held in its shade
because St. James Church, 8o near by,
was then in use as a hospital for
southern soldiers. There was much
exciting conflict between the contend-‘
ing armies around Marietta and thisl
house is one of the few not des?royedi
at that time. It was not then entirely
finished, but was occupied. Thei
thrilling story of its rescue from fire
cannot be told ‘here.
As hostilities ceased, Captain Nor
man Gignilliat, a wealthy rice planter,
of Darien, who had refugeed here,
bought the place and completed it with
a fine metal roof that has been kept
painted and does not jeak after nearly
fifty years of use.
The rooms are large and the wide
hall is unobstructed by a stairway,
On each sideof the hall & door opens
into a winding staircase to the upper
story. So the great hall is a fine place
to dance in, but the owner has some
very old mahogany furniture in it
One piece is a dining table at least two
hundred years old with brass bear
claws above the casters. Another, even
more interesting piece is a writing
table in the Chippendale style that
belongs now to James Holmes the
fourth,
The portraits on the walls are of
great interest, too, one being that of
Pierce Butler Holmes, the first Con
federate volunteer and whe was killed
in the battle of the Wilderness. He
was named for the husband of Fanny
Kemble, the English actress, who
spent a short time on the coast island
where Mr. Butler lived in princely
fashion. In her book the famous

THE F ANE Y GROCER.
'English woman alludes kindly to only
one southerner—Dr. Holmes, the
father-in-law of Mrs. Margaret Gig
nilliat Holmes, who still lives in the
Gignilliat place in Marietta. It is
always a delight to meet Mrs. Holmes
whether in her sitting-room or in the
long rose garden. She is always in a
sweet mood like a dear big rose of
womanhood that has not lost a petal in
the long noon of life. The roses are
varied in beauty and many have an
interesting history from having been
rooted by Mrs. Holmes from bride’s
bouquets, graduation flowers and offer
ings upon a loved one’s grave.
In the sitting-room Mrs. Holmes
shows a card case of carved ivory from
India, with the initials of its first
owner, that is marvelous in its delicate
intricacy. It has come down to Mrs.
J. J. Daniell through several genera
tions, Then there is a massive ewer
of hammered silver that descended
from the English branch of the fami
ly, and several portraits of ancestors
of most aristocratic appearance.
The first mistress of this place was
born Charlotte Gignilliat Trezevant
and after marrying her first cousin,
Norman Gignilliat, she omitted her
second christen name. This lovelylady
died not long ago in her ninety-first
year. She lelt an interesting diary
that will be cherished by her descen
dants. In looking over a small trunk
of papers recently, Mrs. Holmes found
$45,000 in Counfederate bills. She dis
tributed this fortune among relatives
and it will serve to adorn scrap books
‘and interest children who will learn of
ithe lost cause as an historical fact
without comprehending what it meant
to their ancestors,
Mrs. Holmes is preparing to leave
the place, which will be sold in ad
ministering upon her mocher’s estate,
The house is very substantial and
comfortable and is surrounded by
acres of lawns, gardens, orchards and
pastures. The magnificant oaks are
a 8 fine as any in the state. The old
THE MARIETTA JOURNAL AND COURIER.
brick kitchen in the back yard and
the servants houses beyond remind us
of those days that are no more when
dusky, turbaned cooks and maids
adored their white owners and served
them heartily without loss of sell
respect. If this Gignilliat place could
be transformed by slight changes in
the house and by privet hedges in
place of fences, it would in a few years
be a show place in Marietta. The
orchard could spare many trees and
the wide lawn could give a driveway
within its fence without missing the
space. The entire place is level and it
needs only a landscape artist to make
it even more of a ‘‘a joy forever” than
it has been.

MR. DANIELL LOSES
HIS BARN BY FIRE.
Loss $2,500 With No Insurance—
Two Fine Brood Mares, Stal
lion and two Colts Burn.
The barn of Mr. Frank Daniell,
whose home is on the Concord road
two miles from Smyrna, was de
stroyed by fire Sunday night about
eleven oclock together with its con
tents.
The loss was $2,500, with no in
surance,
In the barn were two broodmares,
two colts and a stallion, all valued
at a thousand dollars. The barn also
contained a bale of cotton, alot of
feed stuff and farm tools.
The origin of the fire is unknown.
One of Mr. Daniell’s sons was in the
barn at ten oclock and everything
was all right. An hour later an
other son passed and saw no signs
of fire but just before reaching hone
glanced back and saw the flames, It
was then too late to save anything.
For the best outing at 10, 11
