J MERRBTT OF POLK. CREATES A SMALL SIZED SENSATION IN ATLANTA. Todays Atlanta Constitution contains the following item which will be of interest to North West Georgia, There is a story of interest be - hind the rejection of William Merritt, of Polk county, as a Ful ton county convict yesterday. Merritt is a man about sixty iwo years old and is bent with age. The story he tells is very peculiar. He says thats the wife and daughter of his near neighbor were both taken ill at the same time and that he was sent for some whiskey. The whisky was furnished by Merritt, who loaned it to the neighbor. The sick wo man recovered rapidly and Merritt soon asked for a return of the whiskey or money in payment thereof, as Polk county was under prohibition and the fire water was hard to secure. A«cordi»g to Merritt the man went immediately before the grand jury ami had him indicted for the offense of loaning and try ing to sell whisky. Merritt was convicted and sentenced to pay a flue of SIOO and court costs. This Merritt has refused to do and says that he does not intend to be rob bed by the solicitor and judge of Polk county. He is a wealthy man and owns over ten thousand dol lars worth of properly. Merritt says that he has sent word ro his people to burn every foot o timber on his land and if it is against the law to burn down the house, to ear it to pieces and th u make a bonfire of it. He declares tn at he wants nothing in Polk county except real estate. Merritt was brought to Atlanta yesturday by the deputy sheriff of Polk county and was nu ed asa convict by this eount;. Upon this the sheriff turned Merritt loose and tol l him to meet | him at the office of ■ heriff B arnes this morning. j THE PROTRAC lEL> MEETING 1 There is one very noticible, and pleasant feature of the revival now in progress at the First Baptist i church, and that is the co-operation | of all the churches, and several of the | pastors, in helping to make the meet ings a glorius success. This is jnst as it should be, for the nearer church members are io Chrirt, the nearer they are sure to be to each other, in love, iu words, and in symyathy. Last night Dr. R. B. Headdcn, with Revs. G. T. Goetchiusand J. 1. Gibsno, on either side, occupied the pulpit, and watched the large con gregation as they filed into the pews of the First Baptist church. There was an opening service of 'song and prayer and then a sermon from Dr. R B Head den ,which surely had the soul and ap- ' proval of the Holy Spirit for large ’ numbers responded to the invitation at the close of the sermon by rising, they were sinners and wished to be Christians, after the congregation was dismissed quite a number of those who had asked for prayer on invitation from Dr Headden lingered behind and held after —service in the Bible class room The interest in speaking and the power of the preachers word is being felt more and more and it does seem as if a glorious re f reshing from the Lord is just at hand.
