Augusta Years Ago
Looking Backward Concerning Residents and Happen
ings in the Younget Days of Augusta; and Other Items
"THE GEORGIA BEQUEBT”
Mrs| A. H. Brenner, 2339 Mc-
Dowell street, In very anxious
to obtain a copy of an old book
published In Augusta, 1834, by
McKlnne & Hal), entitled "The
Georgia Bequest; Monolla, or
the Value of Tallulah," by "A
Georgia Huntsman." It la thought
that possibly there may be a
capy of the old book in posses
sion of some of the descendants
of either one of the firm of Me-
Kinne A Hall, or that a copy
lies in some of the old libraries
of Augusta homes.
Mrs. Bfetmer makes known
her request through the col
umns of Augusta Tears Ago
with the hope that some of the
readers of these stories may
know of such a book and help
her to get it She is anxious
for the book that it may be
placed In the library of the In
dustrial school at Tallulah for
the children to read the legend
of the falls.
"Monolla, or th* Value of Tal
lulah," Is a beautiful romance
of the mountains of North
Georgia and the cascading falls
that plunge from precipitous
heights to vales below; and its
telling includes references to tho
Savannah river and Incidents
and persons connected with the
commencement time at Frank
lin college (University of Geor
gia). If it Is possible for any
one who read this request to
put Mrs. Brenner In tough with
a copy of the old book she will
deeply appreciate It. Mrs. Bren
ner's telephone number is 6083.

IT WAS JUST TEN YEARS AGO—
That—The Herald milk and Ice
fund for sick babies reached the
amount of $109.95 (July 27, 1914.)
That—Augusta experienced a se
vere wind, rain nnd electric storm
(July 2G, 1914). There was a bril
liant display of lightning, rain fell
in torrents nnd tho wind attained
a velocity of fifty miles an hour.
The temperature during the after
noon before tho storm at night rose
to 104. Considerable damage was
done by the wind to roofs of houses,
uprooting of trees and tangling tel
ephone and other electric wtres.
Tho electric lights In homes were
out of commission for some little
time following tho storm.
That—Big head lines In the Au
gusta Herald asked: "Will the
■World Be Bhockod and Horrified by
a European War?"
Vice-Consul General to Paris,
Charles P. l'ressly, was In Augusta
during the time, and in an Inter
view aocorded a Herald reportor, he
was quoted as saying: "Money,
commerce and trade do not want a
war. Austria may be allowed to
whip Servla, however." He be
lieved, according to the Interview,
that "the great powers will Inter
vene and stop the war before It
gets to be very serious.”
In the light of following events
wo remark, ns Mutt said to Jeff:
"Interesting If true."
Those were exceedingly anxious
and trying days, along In July, 1914.
Headlines in the papers told: "JAI’H
MAY JOIN," "AN ULTIMATUM
FROM GERMANY,* "ENGLAND 1 *

DUTY.” "OUTLOOK IS DARIt

WAR IS COMINO."

A copy of The Augusta Herald,
01. XIX—No. 18, dated Tuesdav
morning, September 2, 1817, Is had
access to which is interesting from
standpoint of advertisements and
news Items of the times carried in
its columns. Some of these will be
reprinted In Augusta Years Ago
stories carried by The Augusta Her
old of 1924, Just 107 years having
elapsed since their original appear
ance.
Ferried at the head of the first
column, front page, of the old pa
per is notice that, "The Herald of
fice remains where the paper has
usually been printed, in Macintosh
street, nearly opposite to Erwin &
Oakman’s crockery store, and Dr.
Watkln's new brick buildings, where
subscriptions, advertisements and
communications for tho paper will
be gratefully received."
Among the Interesting local sto
ries tho old paper carried an Inter
esting account of—
“ How Lorenzo Dow Raised the
Devil.”
Lorenzo Dow is recalled as a quaint
character and an iltlnerant minis
ter. In the Methodist church who
was connected In sensational way
with the early history of that church
In this city.
The story carried of an experi
ence In tho old preacher's life as fol
lows: “A few years since, whilst
the famous Lorenzo Dow was trav
eling through a certain state, he
came to a solitary house In the
woods, and naked for lodging for
the night. Tho woman of tho house
reluctantly consented( her husband
being absent and not expected home
that night.) Lorenzo got his sup
per, attended family worship and
went to bed In a room adjoining the
one where the woman was, and sep
arated from it by a rough partition
with large cracks between the
boards. Lorenzo could not get to
sleep, nnd therefore lay In a wake
ful posture for some hours. About
midnight ho heard a gentle tap at
tho door, which the woman opened
to a sturdy looking fellow who, it
seemed, was the lady's paramour,
whispered to him that Lorenzo was
In the next room, and he must speak
very low for fear of waking him.
The lovers sat up a while convers

bed. This probably was not sur

prising to Lorenzo, because he
came from a quarter where BUND
LING Is in fashion. In the course
of an hour the .husband unexpect
edly began to thunder at the door;
the lovers were put into terrible
consternation, but the female mind
Is wonderful for expedience. The
paramour was stowed in a large
barrel and some cotton tucks
thrown over him. The woman
ope*sd the door and received her
husband with as much tenderness
as surprise. Me was about three
sheets In the wind, that Is to say, a
little intoxicated, and began to talk
loud and swear. She hushed him
by Informing him that a minister,
the famous Lorenzo Dow, was
asleep In the next room. The hus
band upon hearing this, replied
that Lorenzo should get up and sup
with him, the woman's entreaties
and Lorenzo’s excuses were In vain,
a drunken man is a most unreason
able being. Lorenzo had to get up.
‘Well’ (said the husband) "I under
stand you can raise the devil, I
wish you would bring him up now;
I wish very much to see him.’ Lo
renzo observed he made no such pre
tensions. The drunkard was im-.
portunate, and would have the
devil raised at any rate. Lorenzo
told him he would be terrified at
the sight. ‘No, said the husband,
khocklng his fists together, 'I defy
him.’ ‘Well,’ said Lorenzo, 'since
you will have him raised I request
you would open the door so that he
may escape, otherwise he may carry
off a side of the house! 1 The door
was opened and the husband pre
pared for the attack. When Lo
renzo set the cotton on fire in the
barrel, out come the devil amidst
the flames and made a rapid ro l
treat through the door. The hus
band reported tho story about in
the neighborhood and upon its be
ing questioned he went before a
magistrate and made oath to it. It
gained such evidence that Lorenzo
was compelled to explain the mys
tery by clapping a pair of horns on
tho head of the swaggering fooL”
