CARD FROM JUDGE BRYAN.
To the Voters and Citizens of
Waycross Judicial Circuit.
I wish to thank each and every
one throughout the circuit for the
kind and courteous way in which 1
was received by them. To those
who were supporting me in my
race for the jungsnip. 1 wish to ex
press my sincere appreciation. In
my short canvass of the circuit I
met many good people and found
that we had the pleasure of living
in one of the finest circuits in
the State from an agricultural
standpoint, and found that the
people were whole hearted and
very progressive. With certain
conditions which have arisen, over
which 1 had no control, and the
further fact that the Georgia legis
lature created a new City Court of
Douglas and named me to be the
Judge of that court, it appears the
proper thing for me to do is to
withdraw from the race and accept
the legislative appointment. Ido
this with the utmost good feelings
toward every one concerned and
with sincere appreciation of the
support of my friends throughout
the circuit.
1 felt that 1 should make this
statement to the people. Again
thanking each and every one for
their courtesy and kindness, 1 beg
to remain
Yours sincerely,
W. C. Bryan.

Please find check in full of my
account and with kindest regards
we beg to remain

rEARSON TRIBUNE, PEARSON, GEORGIA, AUGUST 23, 1918
Mrs. G. E. McCormick, Jr., was
in the city Monday and Tuesday.
She brought the sad intelligence
that her husband's sickness had
taken a violent turn and it had
become necessary to send him to
the State Sanitarium at Milledge
ville. Mr. McCormack had been
with the Tribune since early in
January this year and, until he be
came ifl, was a most faithful, cour
teous and lionest employe. The
editor appreciated him as a co
worker and now exceedingly re
grets his unfortunate condition.
The wife, tender and true, lias the
Tribune’s sincerest sympathy in
her sore distress.

hogs prepared or fattening. Call

Their was a fair attendance at
the Home Guards’ drill Tuesday
afternoon. Tht boys arc becoming
more interested in the prepara
tions they are making for service.
Their lessons now are in the skir
mish drill. Uniforms are being
ordered as rapidly as the boys can
find time to have their measures
taken. The rifles and accoutre
ments promised by Gen. Meldrim
are expeeted within the next
month. The busy season on the
farms are keeping some of the
country members from the drills,
but they are graciously excused as
they are doing a most important
work in connection with the win
ning of the world war. The boys
are getting into soldierly shape
very rapidly.
Contrary to expectations Kev.

of his physical examination, has
been placed back In the fourth
