his friends death in a letter from his

Sergt. J. c. Postell Of the Hussars is
busy completing arrangements for the de-
parture of the team of crack shots,
which is to represent Georgia at the in
tenational rifle shoot. to be held at Sea

that point the afternoon of Aug. 30, in
time TO get good rest and famiharize it.
self with the SeaRirt ranges before the
matches take place.
1t is probable that the team will be
composed of the following: First Sergt
j. G. Postell, captain; Sergt. A S.
Eichberg, Privates Thomas Hunter, +.
G, Wilson, G. S. Richmond, J. T. Shup-
trine and J. G. Nelson Of Troop A First

Private James Burpitt, Company ID. First
Battalion Infantry Georgia Volunteers,
Capt. A. J. Twiggs and Private Turner
&. Thomas, First Battalion Cavalry, and
Corpl. r. f. Jones' Troop H, First Regi-
ment Cavalry. Sergt. Postell has writ
ten to Adjt. Gen. Kell for certificate
containing the names here given, as a GER
titicate with his signature has to be pre-
sented before a team can enter the
matches. This certificate is expected to
arrive this week
Privates F. G. Wilson and G. S. Rich
mond expect to leave the city tomorrow
morning for Seagrit as an advance guard,
TO make all arrangements for the recep-
ton Of the team. Sergeant POstell is
working hard to keep the team together
as it has been selected, as 1t is deemed
very important that Georgia should be
represented on this occasion, in order
that the prestige of the state in military
matches may be established. II is
believed that a start should be made
for the good of the state aud that now
is the time to make it. The team, how
ever, does not expect To come back en-
tirely empty handed, as every effort will
be made to show that Georgia boys know
how TO shoot as well as those from the
up country.
The team is very thankful to those who
have almost voluntarily and willingly made
contributions for the successful carrying
out OF the enterprise, as they greatly les
sen the expenses which the individual
members will have to bear. Among those
who have generously extended their aid
are Messrs. w. w Gordon & Co. Duck
worth, Turner Il Co, Garrard Meldrim
x Newman, Capt. John Flannery, l. NJ
Fleming, M Y. Maclntyre, NJ. M. Hop

Word was wired back that a Savannah

prize of $500. A reply was receive shortly
after, stating that the matter would have
to be considered, as sixty days would be
needed to get the team together, il ap-
pearing that the team is composed of mil
tary men drawn from all sections of the
state. There may be more talk about this
Jacksonville match after the Savannah
ians return from Seagirt.
