WASHINGTON, GA.
The Iliitertaimneut.
The entertainment given at the
Lincolnton Academy Monday even¬
ing of this week was a well complete
success. The house was filled
and about thirty dollars realized,
which will be expended for school
fixtures and repairing the building.
All who were on the program
did admirably well and more than
a little natural talent was seen each
time the curtain was raised. To
Prof. Godard and his efficient assist¬
ant, Mrs. ituden, belongs thegreit
credit for this pleasant evening’s
entertainment, because it was under
their careful training that the young
people learned to obviate the diffi¬
culties and embarrassments of the
stage.

Hogan-Colvin.
On Thursday, October 20, at the
home of the bride’s father, Miss
Janie Hogan and Mr. Robert L.
Colvin were united in the holy
bonds of matrimony, Rev W. A.
Hogan performing the ceremony. only
The wedding was a quiet one,
a few friends and relatives of each of
the contracting parties being pres¬
ent. The bride is the eldest daugh¬
ter of lion. James R. Hogan, former
representative from this county, and
is a young lady richly endowed with
all that goes to make a model wife.
The groom is a son of Mr. 1). J. E.
Colvin and is a young man of excel¬
lent character and great sterling
worth. lie is a prosperous, enter¬
prising farmer, and now since he
has won so amiable a life partner,
the future is indeed bright. The

tions.
Court.
The superior court opened at the
usual hour Monday morning with
Ilis Honor, Judge Seaborn Reese, on
the bench.
Besides Solicitor Lewis, who was
on hand promptly, the following
attorneys were in attendance: Messrs
J. T. West, of Thomson, AL P.
Reese, F. II. Colley and W. AL Sims,
of Washington, W. D. Tntt, of
Elberton, J. E. Strother and T. II.
Remsen, Jr., of the local bar.
After the organization of the juries
Judge Reese delivered a very able
and comprehensive charge—said by
some to have been the ablest this
learned jurist has ever before de¬
livered. He addressed the juries for
about two hours, and without at¬
tempting to outline a policy for
them, made the law so plain that
none could help seeing the path of
duty. Ilis denunciation of crime
in any form was as unanswerable
as was his argument in favor of
the upholding of the law effective,
it was an able charge and fell with
much force on all who heard it.
The disposed following criminal business
was of:
SState vs. Henry Parks—murder.
Not guilty. Snap Jones—burglary.
State vs.
Found guilty and fined $50 and cost
of court.
State vs. Joe Bussey—burglary. $50

Lincoln Co. Medical Associal ion
A meeting of the physicians of
Lincoln county was held at this
place on Monday,-the 24th instant,
for the purpose of reorganizing the
County Medical Association. This
association was organized some yeais
ago and for a time flourished, with
an active membership consisting of
every medical practitioner ni the
county, bit during the past two
years no meetings of the association
have been heiit owing to the death,
change of residence, or indisposition
of some .of its former most active
and enthusiastic members.
There was a full attendance of the
medical men of the county at the
meeting on Monday last and are
organization was effected under most
favorable auspices and with most
encouraging John prospects. On motion
Dr. Sims, the former president,
was called to the chair and Dr. W.
B. Crawford was elected secretary.
Dr. 11. L. Culbertson stated the ob¬
ject of the meeting and briefly set
forth t ■ advantages of associat'on
and ] Tinmen t organization, A
committee on constitution and by¬
laws was appointed to report at the
next meeting.
Various matters pertaining to the
interests of the profession were dis¬
cussed and the following resolutions
of interest to the general public
were unanimously adopted:
Whereas, it is common practice of
many persons residing in this county
to completely ignore our bills for
professional service, and
Whereas, we cannot in justice to
ourselves continue to serve such
persons, who make a practice of
employing 0110 physician and then
another without manifesting a dis¬
position to pay any. Therefore, be
it r -solved
1. That each member of the Lin¬
coln County Medical Ass< nation be,
and is hereby requested to report to
the secretary the names of rich per¬
sons as make no effort 10 pay him
for professional aervices.
2. That the secretary ' e. and is
hereby instructed to su >ply each
member of this associa on with a
complete list of the names thus
furnished him.
3. That we, the members of the
Lincoln County Medical Association,
hereby bind ourselves not to render
professional service to the persons
whose names appear 0;: said list,
except for a cash consideration, or
until their names sla’l have been
erased from the list for cause.
4. That we advise those who are
in the habit of mortgaging their
entire crops to the merchant l'or sup¬
plies during the year to reserve from
such mortgage an appropriate amount
of from ten to twenty dollars,
for the payment of their medical
bills
5. That in the adoption of thc«e
resolutions we disclaim any purpose
or intention of depriving those per¬
sons of our services who are really
the hoijest objects of charity or who make
an effort at payment of their
bills, but we are actuated solely by
a the desire deposition to protect of ourselves that class against who
manifest 110 disposition or intention
to paylus. John Sims, AL D., Pres’t.
