mile down was crowded; people
cheering us as we passed. All
steamships, tugs, engines and in
fact everything that could make a
noise, saluted us. We passed over
bar at Z O'Clock, and the "Daunt
less" went back to Savannah for
some of the ships crew who got left.
We steamed out about eight or ten
miles, dropped anchor and waited
for the "Dauntless,' which returned

the crew aboard. The mobile

w. A. CASON PARDONED.

Gov. Taylor Exercises His Executive
Clemency.
Wednesdays American contained
the following: Nv. A. Cason, of
this city, who was sentenced to five
years for making false entries, was
yesterday pardoned by Gov. Taylor.
The pardon was recommended by
Judge Anderson and about $50 prom
inent citizens of this county.
"Cason was bookkeeper for Dun
can & Waddey, real estate agents,
and was charged with embezzlement
and making false entries. He was
tried last May and found guilty on
one of the three charges of false en-
tries. The embezzlement case was
compromised and the other cases
nolled Oh costs.
I'm his recommendation for par
don Judge Anderson makes the point
that the false entries were made to
cover up or conceal the embezzle-
ment. Under the ruling Cason was
compelled to go to trial first on the
charge of making false entries. The
petition says: Had CasOn been
tried first upon the embezzlement,
the false entries being part of the
principal crime, it is nice question
whether or not he could have relied
successfully upon the plea of autre-
foit.' When the embezzlement case
was called, Cason produced full ac-
quittance from Duncan & Waddey.
The case was appealed to the Su-
preme Court, but was dismissed and
remanded for the execution of the
judgment appealed from. Before
putting the sentence into effect,
Judge Anderson recommended the
case to the Governor as one for the
proper exercise of the pardoning

DEATHS HARVEST.


Burt Taylor.
"He brought us pride and a pleasure,
he left us pathos of tears;
A dream of impossible futures, glimpse
of uncalendared years"
On last Saturday, at the home of
his parents at Culleoka, the spirit Of
Burt Taylor was parted from its
earthly tenement and borne to the
throne of God. He had been sick

day, and his sudden and most un
timely death was sad shock to his
family and friends.
Deceased was a son of Mr.. and
Mrs. Clabe Taylor, and had only
reached the twenty fifth year Of his
age. He was young man of ex-
ceptionally good character, honest.
industrious, kind hearted and true,
and commanded the highest respect
and esteem of all. He was
dutiful, loving son, kind and af
fectionate brother, and his presence
will be especially missed within the
little home circle, where his life
shone out in all the beauty of it,
young manhood and blessed the
lives Of those around it. The heart
felt sympathy of everyone goes out
to the bereaved relatives in their sad
affl elton, but in God alone, who
hath given and taken awav, can
they find surcease for their sorrows
and balm for their wounded hearts.
Deceased was a brother to Miss
Clabie Taylor, of Culleoka, and Mr..
Erie Taylor, who is now with the
First Tennessee regiment at Manila.
The funeral services were conduct
ed in the Methodist church at Cut
leoka last sunday afternoon by R4v

tenderly laid the remains away in
their last earthly resting place in
the old Wilkes burying ground near
Culleoka.
