lack of mental capacity and undue in
huence. The will had heretofore been
proven in common form aud letters
testamentary to George Keith, had
been granted as executor, but after

FEDERAL MEMORIAL DAY.

The Federal decoration exercises
took place at the National Cemetery
here last Friday according to the pro-
gram as published in our last issue.
A large crowd of white people from At
lanta and along the A. K. IN. Rail-
road came on the morning trains and
held appropriate services at the ceme-
terry and decorated the graves with
flowers. Superintendent Commerford
had everything in readiness, and at
each grave was small U. S. flag max
ing very pretty picture. There were
probably 1000 negroes here. A
special train from Atlanta arrived
about 1890 with an immense crowd.
They marched to the cemetery headed
by brass band, where they held ex-
ercises. To the credit of the colored
people they were orderly, good natured
and gave no trouble. The marshals
and extra police practically had moth
ing TO do. Only one colored person
was arrested, woman for fighting.
About 6 80 p m. two white men from
Canton were arrested at the depot for
disorderly conduct, engaging IN fight,
which was interrupted and prevented.
