Savannah VIII Not BE Represented
at the Associations Meeting.

savannah VIII NOT he Represented
at the Associations Meeting.
The Teachers Association of Georgia
will hold its annual convention the last
week in June at Warm Springs None of
the Savannah teachers will attend, as the
schools here will not close in time. Many
of them are members of the associa tion
and would be glad to attend were circum-
stances such as to admit.
The meetings of the association were for
merly held at Cumberland Island. An ar
rangement was had with the hotel there
by which cheap rates were allowed the
teachers. The seaside was found an en-
joyable place for spending the week or
ten days of the meetings, and it was to
the regret of the members that the hotel
was closed. For three years there have
been no meetings there.
The Savannah schools close later than
any others in the state. Others also have
the nine mouths term but they begin
earlier in the fall 1t Is for that reason
schools in other cities close the last of
May or first of June.
1t is said the custom of having the Sa-
vannah schools begin early in October
grew out of The fact that years ago the
city was regarded as very unhealthy dur
ing that month II was then that many
families were away. The improved SAM
iation of the city and the drainage of bogs
and swamps that lay near il have relieved
September of its reputation for sickness,
however, though families do not return
from the resorts al distance In sufficient
time to enable the schools 10 start In that
month. 1t is said, too, that the business
of the city is largely responsible for the
later opening of the school term, as much
of il is of a character thai becomes active
later than September. Gentlemen go away
with their children and do not return until
time for them to again give attention 10

Law Court Decisions.

The law court has handed down a
decision in the Penobscot county case
Of Charles T.. Rackliff of Old Town vs..
Inhabitants of Greenbush. The re-
script follows:
Chapter 80 of the Public Laws of
1897 provides that whenever any per-
son who served il the army, navy, or
marine corps Of the United States dur
ing the Rebellion and was lawfully dis
charged therefrom, shall die, being at
the time of his death q resident of this
State and being in destitute circum-
stances. the State shall pay the neces-
sary expences of his burial, not ex-
ceeding s35; and that the municipal Of
ficers Of the city or town in which such
deceased had his residence at the time
OF his death shall pay the expenses Of
his burial; and that, upon satisfactory
proof. the State shall refund said town
or city the amount so paid The plain
TIM an undertaken, provided a casket
and robe of the value of $24 for the
burial of such deceased soldier which
the municipal officers of the defendant
town, in which the deceased had his
residence at the time of his death, re-
fused to pay. Held:
l. That the statute does not require
that such burial shall be provided or
that the expenses Of such burial shall
BIZ authorized by the municipal Off
GERS.
IL That is it the duty of the NUM-
cipal officers to pay such burial eX-
penses, from the funds of the town.
I'LL That. upon a refusal of the
municipal officers to pay such expenses.
they may be received of the town in an
action of assumpsit.
Judgment for the plaintiff for S24
and interest from the date of the writ
In the case of VIM. s. Henry. Jr., ct
ais. vs.. David Dennis of Gardiner, the
jury rendered a verdict for the defend
ant and a rescript has been received
from the law court setting aside the
verdict.
Henry ssld material to the Gardiner
Wooden Mill co. and at the trial claim
ed that he did so on the representation
of Mr. Dennis that the company was in
good financial condition. The com
pany afterwards became insolvent, oW-
ing the plaintiff.
The defendant in order to obtain
credit OF the plaintiff for the Gardner
Wooden Mill Co OF which the defendant
was a director, represented in writing
to the plaintiffs that the mill was do
ing we'll and that ''all the cloth they
make is sold at a good fair proft. In
our opinion the testimony shows con-
clusively that at the time when such
MISREPRESENTATION was made the COM
nany was hopelessly insOlvent and that
it's cloth was not sold at a profit.
We think the verdict which was for
,he defendant was manifestly against
evidence and the verdict is set aside
and a new trial ordered.
