A. w. b. Griffin, Ga.--This is my native
place, so l am happy and proud that the en-
soldiers have gone home much to the regret
Of all the young people, especially the glrlS.
and much to the relief of some older heads.
Every afternoon during the encampment ev-
erybody who could command vehicle would
drive to the grounds to view the parade and
drill, and tell you 1t was Il beautiful sight.
One afternoon there was quite serious acct
dent. horse became frightened when the
cannon was fired and started to run and but
soldiers the young ladies' would have been
just fallen out of the buggy and the wheels
very badly bruised. No other accident hap
pened but in my opinion it is really danger
Gus to drive where the horses have to hear
the cannon and see the military display.
Mrs NJ Hover, Harrison, L. T.-Although

People who know nothing Of this country

profound respect takes Its place. One is
