Mr. Samuel Harville.
There still lives at a good old I
age, one of the delegates from Bui- i'
loch to the secession convention j 1
at Milledgeville in January 1861. । 1
The two delegatee from this 11
county to that memorable conven-11
tion, were Samuel L. Moore and [’
Samuel Harville, Mr. Moore!’
died only a year or two ago at the 1<
advanced age of 89 years, while I <
Mr. Harville is still living in this| ’
county. Before Georgia seceded ! :
from the union the people voted i
on that question, and each county i i
sent delegates to the state capital ! 1
to pass on that question. Bul-y
loch voted in favor of secession, ] ■
and our two delegates signed the ;
ordinance which proclaimed to the ;,
world that Georgia had transfer- j,
red her allegiance from the starsj:
and stripes to the stars and bars, i
the flag of the new liorn confed
eracy. The question of slavery ,
had agitated the country for many |

had to be settled by the arbitra
ment of arms. Prior to the meet
ing of the convention at Milledge
ville the people were worked upto
the very highest pitch, and the
feeling between those who still
favored staying in the union, and
those who favored going out was
very bitter, in some sections, and
when the convention met, the two
opposing factions debated the
question for several days. Men
like Aleck Stephens thought it
best to remain in ths union, wnile
men like Robert Toombs favored
secession. After a stormy debate
the vote was taken, and Georgia
went out of the union, along with
her sister states, and then followed
the greatest war of modern times.
The population of Bulloch was
small in those days, yet about 600
of her sons took up arms in de
fense of the new government, and
many of them laid down their
lives on many hard fought fields.
Mr Harville is one of the few act
ors yet living and in hie serene
| old age he has the satisfaction of
I knowing that he did his duty in
the day that tried men’s souls.
