 This arrangement would suit the people of this section Colonel Abbott has waded into the affections of the people of this section of the State from the very moment that he set foot on this soil. By his uniform courtesy. fxtrness. energy and enterprise. he has done great deal to develop this section and there Is not a man. woman or child in Dallas and Marcngo Counties but who would be glad to see him become the superintendent of the division from Augusta.
