CHA NCELLOR ABERNA THY.

CHANCELLOR ABERNATHY
1t seems from present indica.
tons that Chancellor Alternately
will have no opposition in his race
for reelection. His conduct in
Office has been such as to create
for him the highest esteem of both
lawyers and litigants, and the fact
that no attorney in this division
feels able to cope with him in the
race speaks much for his efficiency
and ability.
Chancellor Alternately has been
noted for his prOmptness in at
tending his courts, impartial in
his decisions between litigants,
and patient and kind with atior-
news in listening to them while
presenting their claims.
We hope that other counties in
the Division will give the Chan
cellor as hearty support aud en-
dorsement as he is sure to receive
in this county.
