Rome Ga. Sept. 4th. 1894.
Constitution:
I am pleased to see that your
new Encyclopedia Britannica does
not contain the very objectiona
ble references to the literature and
the conduct of the people of the j
South that is contained on page l
630 of the Maxwell Sommerville
Edition (9th.) American Reprint
VOL. I. of the Encyclopaedia Bri
tannica which article I condemn'’
John H. Reynolds.
From Judge W. H. Dabney.
Rome, Ga., September, 3. 1894.- I
have examined the Atlanta Constitu
tion Edition of the Encyclopoedia
Britannica and compaired it with the
Maxwell Sommerville Edition of the
Encyclopedia Britannica of 1891.
The latter contains many unjust, and
untrue statements about, and reflec
tions upon our Southern jieople
which in my judgement should ex
clude it from southern libraries. The
former mentioned is a good work,
and well worth perusal and would be
a useful addition to the library of
any southern gentleman.
W. H. Dabney
From Col- D. B. Hamilton.
R:ms Ga.,Sept 3 —This writiting
is to state that I have examined the
Atlanta Constitution Edition of
the Encyclopaedia Britannica and
compared it with the maxwell
Summerville edition of 1891 pre
sented to me and find that the
former named does not contain the
objectionable matter which is un
true and unjust to the South, but
that the above named Sommerville
edition does contain matter against
the South which is untrue and
misleading.
D. B. Hamilton.
From Ralqh Dille of Rome, Ga.
I have examined the Atlanta
Constitution edition of Encyclo
paedia Britannica, carefully com
paring it with the Maxwell Sum
merville edition of Britannica and
say I do not see how parents can
place confidence in the informa
tion given in the Summerville work
on “American Literature.’’ Do you
wish your children to believe the
untruthful and unjust statements
regarding the South contained in
the last named edition. It is unfit
to place in the hands of any child,
let alone the Southern youth.
Ralph Dille.
Testimony of Prof. R. J. Gwalt
ney of Rome Ga.
I have read carefu 5y the article oe
American literature in the Maxwell
Summerville Edition of the Britan
nica which is defamitc ry of the south
and her authors which shoul 1 be
cc n lemned by every lover of the
south and should not find its way
into any southern home, upon ex
amination of the same article in the
Constitution edition of Britannica,
[ find nothing at all objectionable, but
on the other han J , one worthy of the
south, which I can heartily endorse.

AGP.ETNA GREEN AFFAIR
With a Personal JOiff culty De
nouncement in the Hotel
Reaction Room Where
the Fathers and
Groom got Mixed
Baltimore Md., Sept. 5.
The elopment of a young couple
from the Bel Air and the sub
squent marriage in this city re
sulted last night in an exciting
personal encounter at the Hotel
Rennert.
The bride is Elizabeth Bissell,
aged 16, daughter of Benjamin
Bissell, agent of the new Central
Coal Company, with offices in this
city.
The young man is Mr. L. Derry
Passano, 28 years old, a graduate
of Johns Hopkins University and
a professor of mathematics in the
School of Technolgy at Boston.
Mr. Passano’s father is president
lof the Eclipse Manufacturing
Company, of Baltimore, and was
atone time a vice president of the
Standard Oil Company.
Both families are well known in
Baltimore society, but reside in
Bel Air, a few miles from the
city.
The young couple ran away yes
terday. They have been acquainted
about a year. Three weeks ago Mr.
Passano went to the girls father
and announced in a straightfoward
way the love between them, and
asked the parental indorsement.
Mr. Bissell would notgive it and
forbade his daughter to receive
the young man. This did not di
minish the love of the young peo
ple. They wrote to each other let
ters that had nothing to do with
mathematics, and Mr. Bissell says
young Passano’s sisters smuggled
these missives to the girl.
Yesterday afternoon the girl
left the house under pretense oi
paying a visit to Dr. A. H. Rich
ardson, of Belair, who had been
treating her for granulated eyelids.
She met her lover, who had a wag
on in waiting. His parents also
went along, and Mr. Frank Han
cock, who is engaged to Miss Pearl
Passano, the professor’s sister,
performed the duties of coachman.
They drove to Baltimore and went
at once to the residence of Rev.
Lyttleton F. Morgan, 1312 Lyn
den avenue, by whom they were
married.
Ta? party then went to the Al
tomount Hotel and registered with
the understanding that they would
go to ’he Hotel Renuert for a wed
ding supper.
When they got. down to the Ren
nert it chanced that Mr, Bissell,
father of the girl had just arrived.
The bridal party was in .the recep
tion room of the hotel. Mr. Bissell
entered and a scuflle essued. Mr.
Bissell attacked J the jMessers Pa. -
sano with his cane and fist, but at
taches of the hotel parted the bel
ligeieuts before any serious dam
age was done. The irate father
was tak»*u out into the lobby, and
the bridal party was quietly spir
ited away to the Altamont, where
they spent th , night.
Professor and Mrs. Passano,left
the hotef today saying they intend
ed going at once to Boston.
