SANDERsvILLE, Ga, May 16-Dr. II. N.
Hollifeld has $40 note which is an inter-
esting relic Of 1865 At that time Wash
ington county was without a court house,
Sherman's gang having burned the old
court house. Notes to the amount Of S10,-
900 were issued, bearing 10 per cent. inter
est. They we're for IS, $40 and $50. 1t
was expected that they would be used as a
circulating medium, but bearing interest
they were more valuable than greeubacks
and were stored away by the people who
had them. They were issued in
accordance with an act of the legislature
At that time Samuel Robson, John B. Tur-
ner and II. N. Holliheld were the county
commissioners, and Maj. N. Newman
was treasurer. The notes were all redeemed
within eighteen months, but none Of them
were brought from their hiding places until
the commissioners advertised that interest
would be no longer paid. The notes were
ali destroyed, but each OF the commissioners
kept one as a relic. having written across
Il Q face the fact that they had been can
celed. A photograph Of the ruins Of the

GRIFFIN. GA, May 16.-"Held by the

tonight Twenty-eight years ago regi-
ment OF confederate ladders were in camps
on the spot now known as "Camp Northen, {"
and this ground has been in the hands Of the
confederates from that day to this, but to-
night detachment of United States regu-
lars are bivouacked on these grounds, hence
the figure. Quartermaster General A. j.
West, Lieut.. e. B. Satterlee, Col. keenan,
and a detachment of regulars ar
rived this morning for the pur-
pose OF locating and pitching the tents
which tomorrow week will be occupied
by Georgia's citizen soldiers. Ten carloads
of tents, flats, stoves and other parapher-
MALTA are side-tracked near the grounds, and
by Tomorrow night that beautiful grove OF
the encampment will be fairly dotted with
white.
Whether future legislatures provide for
annual encampments is question which is
exciting much comment, and the almost
universal opinion is that they can not 90
aught else. The good Of last years ems
campment is still fresh in the minds
OF the people, and. speaking of
it. this afternoon, Col F!c D. Dismuke
paid Col. West a high compliment. Said
he: II was on the legislative committee TO
examine the expense account of Camp
Chickamauga, and can faithfully say a
clearer report was never submitted to
body by a mortal man. Each item of ex-
pense had its proper voucher and when the
vouchers were counted they were found to
tally to cent with the accounts submit
ted" That is a tribute indeed to Col.
Vests ability and should satisfy all future
legislatures that money voted TO maintain
the soldiers of Georgia will be properly
handled and accurately accounted for.
