To Hie voters of Atkinson County: Being thoroughly convinced that i did not get a fair deal at the county primary of March 17th, and upon t lie ad vice and insistence of many friends who feel that 1 was unfairly treated at said pri mary, I now offer myself as a can didate for Lax Collector of Atkin son county at the general election in November. In presenting myself at this time as a candidate for your con sideral ion and suffrage I am actu ated by no selfish, sordid motive, i have the highest personal regard for t he other candidates and would not wilfully misrepresent or treat them unfairly; but I do want a fair and square election. I am charged with being inconi potent. 1 submit the tax books of I bit) as a refutat ion of this charge; the books speak for themselves and do not misrepresent the facts. Fellow citizens, I ask for vindi cation at your hands. If elected I will endeavor to do my full duty and make you an acceptable pub lic servant. Respectfully submitted, Rowan Cokbitt. James-Murray. Miss Inez James, the eldest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. George W. James, and Mr. Joe Murray, son of Mr. and Mrs. W. li. Murray, Sr., were united in marriage late Sunday evening, Judge George W. Sweat officiating. The bride is an intelligent and industrious young lady, too young to assume the marriage vows. Her parents were doing their best to educate and prepare her for life's duties, but she would not have it that way. The marriage was without her parents’ knowl edge or consent. The Tribune editor is a friend to both parties and hope their hasty action will never be a source of regret to them. He wishes them well. The Tribune pri nts this week a statement of the condition of Rear son Banking Company as of Sept ember 21st. It is a showing of which the stockholders may well feel proud. The Bank is in a most excellent financial condition, and growing in favor with the people. Interesting Reminiscence. The Christian Index of last week contained an obituary and resolu tion of Turkey Branch Missionary Baptist church, in Effingham coun ty, upon the death of Miss Carrie Wilson, a very exemplary and eon secrated member of that body. Miss Wilson was a first cousin of Elder S. E. Blitcb, now of At kinson county. About 3 years ago when Elder Blitcli gave a birthday dinner at Hotel Malone, be told the editor the substance of the following reminiscence, which he now publishes thinking they may be of interest to some of bis read ers: Miss Carrie Wilson was my first cousin and, perhaps, the last of the first line of cousins. She was a maiden lady; She and I born the same year. She lived in Egypt, Effingham county, Georgia, on the old homestead my greatgrandfath er, James Wilson, drew from the Georgia I .and Office in 1775. Luke, the son, inherited the old homestead, of 100 acres, at the death of his father. Allen, Luke’s son, inherited it at his father’s death. Miss Carrie, daughter of Allen, inherited it at her father’s death. She lived, labored and died on the place where her grand father, Luke Wilson, and all his family were born. She had the land cultivated. Our great-grandfather, James Wilson, and great-grandmother, Ann Gordon Wilson; our grand father, Luke, and grandmother, Ratience Mott Wilson, and all of their children were members of Turkey Branch church, which grandfather, Luke Wilson, and cousin, Carrie AYilson, gave to that community. For 145 years this land lias been owned by James Wilson’s descendants of the same name. But now, perhaps, some other muife will own it. James Wilson was born and lived to manhood in Edinburgh, Scotland. He was well educated, trained in a military school; came to America and landed in Renn sylvania; took part in the Revolu tionary war and appointed Captain of a militia company April It), 1 777. He was captured by the British and held until the close of I lie war. lie also served as Cap tain in the war of 1812. He was married twice. 11 is first, wife died before lie came to Georgia. She was the mother of three sons— John, James and Jesse. His sec ond wife was Ann Gordon and she was the mot her of Luke, Gabriel, Jeremiah, Elihu and Allen. His oldest son, John, by his first wife, became a Presbyterian min ister and the grandfather of l’resi dent Woodrow Wilson. Great-grandfather, .fames Wil son, drank whisky to drunkenness, and the following unusual incident grew out of it. Great-grandmother, Ann Gordon Wilson, had prepared supper and was waiting for him to come in from Savannah, lie came home drunk and, stepping up erect to the table, took up a plate and dashed it down; She, standing on the opposite side of the table, did the same tiling. He repeated and so did she until all the plates were broken. He looked at her and said: “Ann Gordon what did you do that for? She replied: “James Wilson what did you do that for?” No more was said, and he never got drunk again. His business record shows that he lived to be 125 years old. His sword, he carried as Captain was broken into tiny pieces by Sher man’s army. “When Cousin Car rie’s estate is disposed of I hope to get a pipce of his sword as a relic,” says Solomon Elihu Blitcli. Judge R. G. Dickerson. The Tribune editor regrets ex ceedingly to learn of the serious illness of Judge Robert G. Dicker son, of the Alapaha judicial circuit, of High Blood Pressure. He was taken ill last week while holding the civil term of Berrien superior court and was forced to adjourn the court and go home. He secured the services of Judge James I. Summerall, of the Way cross judicial circuit, to hold the criminal term of Berrien superior Union Hill. There will be a Box Social at Evergreen school next Friday evening. October Bth. Miss Lucy Lott is teacher. Rev. M. L. Hargreaves filled his regular appointment at Union llill church last Saturday and Sunday. The services were attended by large and attentive congregations. The Union Hill church is repre sented at the South Georgia Asso ciation of Congregational churches, holding its meeting at Doerun, by Rev. 1). J. Pearson and Messrs. Daniel W. Mills and Thomas S. Corbitt, Mesdames L. AV. Mills and It. H. Dickerson, and Miss N'ezzie Pearson. Hope they will have a pleasant time and bring home a good report of the meeting. The report is that the Trustees of Red Bluff school have s ( hut the young folks out from having social parties in the building. It seems that the young folks were careless about cleaning up their frolics, and "lien cleaning up time came, for the school to begin, the floor was in a desperate condition and gave much trouble in the cleaning. Guess they will relent next sum mer when the belles and the beans get right in after them. The girls, as ever they were, are irresistible. Forget-Me-Not. New Bethel. Mr. J. (). AVhite, Jr., who lives near Arnie, was a visitor at Air. Dan Fussell’s last Friday. The Fussell school began its 1 920-21 term last, Monday. Miss Bessie Eight is the teacher. Mr. W. L.

From Valdosta comes, what seems to be au authentic story, that United States District At torney, John W. Bennett, is in possession of a letter from Senator Hoke Smith iu which it is emphat ically denied that there has been any combination between Senator Smith and Candidate Hardwick as recently given publication. it.says, so the interesting poli tical story goes, that Senator Smith complains very bitterly that Hardwick lias betrayed him in every way possible, and it was Hardwick’s friends who circulated the story that the Senator would support Hardwick for governor. The letter, it is stated, sets forth plainly Smith’s ehargesof political treachery and declares positively lie nor his friends will support Hardwick at his request. The letter in question has not been made public, why not is un known, but its contents seems to be known to Senator Smith's friends iu some sections and they are giving vent to their disapprov al of Hardwick’s unfaithfulness to ward Senator Smith in that cam paign. What importance can be attach ed to this story the Tribune will not undertake to say, but its pass ing strange that it has come to the light just on the eve of the election, and in the manner dis closed.
