Lees army was wounded and laid up with
bis wound IN farm house six miles from

Virginia girl The young maiden
learned to love him, and before the year
1855 ended she was his wife. They lived
together happily. and while fortune did not
favor them, they we're confronted with their
lot until last April, when Mr.. Kennedy had
a burning desire to return to his old home
in Georgia. lie had not visited il since lie

On April he placed bis family, consist

he will be az the home Of his boyhood.
The ton children are rosy-cheeked and
hearty, and only one of them has been sick
since leaving Virginia. At one time tie
old steer was sick, aud it was gloomy times
for the family until 1T peartened up.
Now and then, when the stock of provis-

and worked, picking cotton, pulling
fodder, or doing anything that fell in the
way toward earning a little toward feeding
the dozon mouths dependent on him. But
in spite Of his poverty and privatlols, Mr..
Kennedy has kept up mis- spirits and looks
forward with sweet anticipation to the day

seven years ago. He Is probably the last of

THE LOU WAR HEN INSTITUTE.
1t is Located in the Charming Town
of WriRhtsYille


A correspondent from Wrightsville, Ca
writes that in the Opponents recent "Jot-
tings on the Rail" the pet and pride of
Wrightsville, the Mamie Lou Warthen
institute" was located at Dublin. / crave
pardon for this oversight, which, doubtless,
grew out of the hurry OF composition and
the inadvertent mingling of the wayside
notes of the two towns.
The institute is located in Wrightsville,
and its establishment was largely due to
Col Warthens liberal donation, supple
mented by the indefatigable labors of Dr.
Clark in raising the additional funds
needed.
Through the efforts of the latter gen tie
man, 100 double desks and two fine pianos
have just been procured, and will be utilized
Immediately. The institute is under the
care of the South Georgia Methodist con-
ference, with Rev. R. b. Bryan supsrin-
tendent.
Wrightsville is healthy and moral town,
claiming 1000 inhabitants, and as stated in
my late letter, was the first place in Georgia
to inaugurate prohibition. Nothing could
have been further from the intention Of the
writer than to do her the least injustice.
