tombstone was still conscious when
picked UP. Asked why he had done the
shooting, he replied:
Il loved her and she was not faithful.
The victim was unable 10 speak. In
fact, it is probable that she was already
dead. The patrol was at once summoned
and both the dead and the living were
placed therein and driven with all posi-
lie haste 20 the Hshnemann Hospital
On the way 20 that institution John
stone, # IS said, declared that he was
glad that he had shot the woman and
hoped that he himself would die. The
physicians in attendance. as soon as
they had examined Miss Hassett. stated
that life was probably extinct before she
was placed in the patrol wagon.
Unsuccessful Probing for Bullets.

the doctors expressed the opinion that
while II might be danger Gus to probe for
the bullets. nevertheless. that course
was the only hope left OF saving his life.
The task was undertaken, but the bull
lets could not be located.
Those who have knowledge Of the
facts declare that Jealousy was the cause
Of the tragedy. Both Mrs. Hassett and
Mr.. tombstone were married but each

IN MEMORIAM.


KING-Died suddenly at his home
in Wayne county, on the 18th of April,
1902, James Fort King. who was born
in the same county, on Sept. "a, 1924,
his age, n years, 6 months and q
days. His father the late Stephen
Clay King, was wealthy rice planter
in Camden county, Ga, and being a
man of highly cultivated mind and
fully approaching the advantages of
a thorough education, spared no pains
in procuring for his children, these
advantages. His grandfather, on his
mothers side, was James Fort of
North Carolina, who moved to Glynn
county, Ga, early in the last century
and settled near Brunswick, was a
large land owner, and very success
full cotton planter. Mr.. King, being
gifted with a mind of no ordinary
to his keeping. He entered Franklin
College. now the University of Geor-
gia, and graduated with honor, TAX
ing his B. A. degree, in 1913, and
subsequently the degre of M. A. from
the same time-honored institution. In
1850 he married Miss Louisa Clark, the
accomplished daughter of Maj. Archi-
bald Clark, a prominent lawyer, and
resident of st. Marys Ga. For many
years Mr.. King filled many positions
of honor and trust and served his
county in the Georgia Legislature,
giving to that intelligent body the
benefit of his knowledge and wisdom.
He was a sound Presbyterian and
ruling elder for many years in the
Waynesville Presbyterian Church, of
which his father was one of the
founders. AS a husband he was I'M.
firing in his devotion, as a father af-
fectionate to his children, as friend.
sincere and firm, as a man. upright
and conscientious, he sought not the
praise of men, but served his God
faithfully from youth to old age and
1t pleased God to peacefully. and with
out a pang translate him into the
Kingdom of His Son."
NOW that the battle has been fought
and won,
And thou shalt stand in thine ap-
pointed place,
Thou wilt receive the long-looked for,
well done.
And meet, at last. thy Maker. face
to face"

citizens from McRae is in the city en-
deavoring to induce the Board of Edu-
cation of the city of Dublin to consent
to release Prof. r. ]. Stroller from his

days
Laughing Ben" Ellington, Dublin's
greatest character, has gone to Coney
Island for the summer. Ben is the
champion Laughter of the state. He
spent considerable time on the Midway
of the Buffalo Exposition and came
back to Dublin with more money than
he ever saw before at one time. He
is an oldtime, ante-bellum negro, and
claims to be 81 years of age, though
he does not look over so. There is not
a person in Dublin who does not like
old Ben. and he will be missed until
his return. He has now a good size
bank account, and it is expected that
it will be considerably larger when he
gets home from Coney Island.
