JOURNAL, ESTABLISHED 1866.
VOI.. 50.
MR. THOMAS B. IRWIN
Mr. Thomas Beverly Irwin died in
Marietta at ten o’clock Wednesday
morning.
Mr. Irwin was a well-known law
yer having been admitted to the bar
before he was twenty one years of
age.
He was at one time a law partner
of the late William D. Anderson, and
also of his father, Hon. David Irwin,
deceased. He was considered one of
the best read lawyers in the circuit—
being thoroughly familiar with the
Common law, and well versed inj
pleading. His tastes and study fit—i
ted him for the work of a counselor
more than that of an advocate and
his advice. and counsel were mu(-h:
sought, |
He at one time compiled the Stat-j
utes of the State of Georgia, which
was pronounced by the best lawyersl
as a well nigh perfect piece of work.
Early in Ilife Mr. Irwin was mar-}
ri2d to Miss Lilla C. Atkinson, a sis-‘
ter of Judge S. L. Atkinson, of Hon.
S. R. Atkinson and Mrs. R de T.}
Lawrence. He is survived by his
wife and one daughter, Miss Mary\
Ann Irwin, and three sons, David A.,!
of Buford, Ga.,, Alex A., of Marietta
and Geo. B. Irwin; of Ft. Collins,%
Col, all of whom were with him in
his last illness doing all that loving
hands could for him—and one broth-%
er, Capt. R. C. Irwin. |
Thomas B. Irwin was a kind and
loving hunband, an affectionate
father and a true and loyal friend.
He numbered his friends by the
hundred and many will miss the kind
words and pleasant greeting of Toin
Irwin,
Memory reverts to the many hap
py hours that this writer has spent
in his society and fondly clings to

To the Citizens and Tax Payers of
Marijetta: -
Having just taken office as your
mayor I feel it my duty to make a
statement of the City’s condition
financially, especially since there
are rumors out that the city is less
than $2400 in debt. This, of course,
is only a rumor for we have the au
ditor's report which appears below.

The city must have running ex

port, we actually owe vouchers and
bills equal to $9937.37.
I believe in letting the tax payers
know just how the city stands at all
times, and will publish from time to
time its condition.
The Council meetings are open to
the public, and you are invited to at
tend them.

A word about your city laws.
“1 am in favor of enforeing all the
ordinances of the city impartially
and without favor to any party
whether rich or poor.” A plank in
my platform.
Anyone who cares to, can certainiy
keep hogs, and all 1 ask is that they
do not violate the law. (Sec. 22 and
23 City Code.)
Cases will be made against violat
ors of the following sections of City
Code after January 15th.
Section 26. “Throwing trash and
decayed matter in the streets.”
Section 94. “Clear szide walks of
boxes and other obstructions."
Section 84. “Riding bicycles on
sidewalk."
Section 29, “Shooting air-guns
and sling shots.”
Also “No skating on sidewalk.”
Now comes the automobilists who
are all my friends and patrons, and
I feel sure they will help me to do
my duty and keep my promise to
“enforce impartially and without
favor” and will not violate the laws.
Close your cut-outs. (Repair your
muffler,)
Don't speed. (It would be too
late to make an arrest after someone
was killed.)
Turn corners slowly, especially
those on the square.
Keep head lights lighted after
dark.
A copy of the above ordinances are
in the Clerk’s offfce, and can be
seen at any time,
Thanking my fellow citizens in ad
vance for their co-operation in mak
ing our city cleaner and safer,
Respectfully,
JIM R. BRUMBY, JR., Mayor.
