TAKEN FROM MR, REED
— i
Was Wounded Ftity Years Ago
And Shot Removed
This Week.
PDr. W. H. Perkinson recovered a
hullet last Monday that was fired
by a Yankee soldier on the 29th of
Ncvember, 1864 at Knoxville, Tenn.,
nto the right shoulder of Andersoan
Reed, a private in Lee’s army 7tn
Go. Regiment under Cagt. Tom King
of Roswell. At that time Mr. Reed
was a stalwart young man of 22
and, while the bullet penetrated his
richt lung and lodged in his shoul
ier, he recovered sufficienty to re
sume his work as a farmer. He
married and continued to live on his
farm but the wound did not hecl
and impaired his health to such an
¢xtent that he gave up farming 25
years ago.
Eight years ago an X-ray picture
was taken of Mr. Reed’'s shoulder
and the bullet plainly located.
Three days afterward when the sur
ceons made an incision it had dis
appeared and Mr. Reed’s wound con
tinued to distress him.
Recently an abcess formed on the
right side of his abdomen and ne
went to Dr. Perkinson’s office to
have it attended to. While lancing
the abcess Dr. Perkinson felt the
bullet and making another incision
drew the missile out. It proved to
be a 45 bullet as large around as the
doctor’s thumb. Cocaine was ap
plied to deaden the pain and after
the wound was dressed Mr. Reed
put his souvenir of the war into his
pocket and walked to his home on
Roswell street. His daughter, Mrs.
Tom Hamby, is as proud of the lead-

CO-OPERATION OF PATRONS
ON RURAL ROUTES REQUESTED
Qet. 6th, 1914,
To. R, By D, Patronn:
The rural routes from Marietta
Postoffice have recently been in
spected and the carriers are giving
the best service possible under ex
isting conditions. The report shows
that many boxes are inconveniently
located and, contrary to Postal Laws
and regulations, can only be reached
by dismounting. All patrons are
therefore urged to confer with car
riers and re-locate and re-number
boxes when necessary.
It would be a most unpleasant
duty to have to enforce regulations,
80 please give this your attention
and co-operate with us in improv
ing the service.
Respectfully, .
MRS CLAY. P. M
J. W. HARDEMAN MAKES A
LIBERAL OFFER TO FARMERS
To the Trading Public:
We want you to stop and think.
We lead and let others follow who
can. We opened up a new area in
business this year. We sold all our
customers that run time accounts
at cash prices and that was a saving
to them of 25 per cent. Now we
set the pace again by giving them
10 cents per pound for cotton on
their accounts, That is allowing
them eleven dollars per bale over
the market. We buy for cash and
we are the only supply merchants
in Marietta that own their store and
warehouse, We have no rent, no
clerks to pay. Give us your trade,
We want to live and let you live at
the same time. We are very busy
but will try to wait on a few more
customers. Come to see us and we
will make you happy.
Respectfully
J. W. HARDEMAN & SONS.
