died here today, where he had
come in the discharge of his duty.
Dr. Branch has long suffered
from heart trouble, and his con¬

that his death, while sudden, was
not wholly unexpected, as his

the Valdosta district. Dr. Branch
had his home at Dixie, a few miles

he has been connected for the
past thirty years. He has served

Savannah, and has at different
times been presiding elder of a
number of districts. He has
headed the Wesleyan board for a
number of years. With his broth¬
er, the late Rev. Frank A.

In Memory of General J. B.
‘ Gordon.
On Tuesday of last week, on
motion of Judge J. L. Underwood,
Judge Bush ordered a recess of
the City Court in order to afford
the Confederate veterans Jan op¬
portunity to pay respect to the
memory of Gen. J. B. Gordon,
whose remains were on the way
from Florida to Atlanta for bur¬
ial.
Judge Bush wa3 called to the
chair and paid a touching tribute
to the memory of the great chief¬
tain.
A committee consisting of J. L.
Underwood, J. A. Kirbo and
Dwigh: Hayes was appointed to
prepare a memorial notice for the
Camilla Enterprise and Pelham
Journal.
The following is their report:
We, Confederate Veterans of
Mitchell county, greet each other
with that sympathy which every
true Confederate feels over the
coffin of her brilliant, brave and
noble chieftain. General John B.
Gordon. He illustrated Southern
patriotism, valor and ability on
the battlefield and southern man¬
hood and honor in the dark days
of reconstruction. True soldiers
are true peace makers and no
man, north or south, has done
more to bring the people of the
country together in peace than
General Gordon. He (showed
that the Southern soldier fears no
one and hates no one.
We should be grateful for the
fast that from President Davis
down, all through the Confed¬
erate ranks, there was exhibited
so much of high character and
lofty courage in fighting for our
rights of home rule, and'so much
of patience when all was lost.
The Veterans of Mitchell county
greet the dead with tears and the
living with sympathy.

J. A. Kirbo,
