reported 20 have said that his son
could do as he pleased. He could
stay or leave. His son left Mrs.
Browne and Mrs. Browne refused TO
pay him the Ave hundred dollars out

TRIED OFTEN TO COLLECT THE
MONEY.
Rev. TaylOr's son made repeated
efforts TO collect the money after he
became of age. but all efforts failed.
He even consulted an attorney. He
is reported TO have told him that IL
he could prove his charges that Mrs.
Browne had been cruel TO him and
thereby caused him 10 leave, he
could win the case. Mrs. Browne
denies that she was cruel to him.
The matter has rested there ever
since. Rev Taylors son claiming
that he could make more money by
working elsewhere during the many
years he would be required 20 stay
at the home of the widow. than by
iaboring for her for his victuals and
clothes.
PRESIDENT TAYLOR's DENIAL.

all OF this had nothing TO do
with his official attitude in the
case. Mrs. Browne-Smith strong

PRESIDENT TAYLoR'S son AND
THE LEGACY

Mrs. Mollie Browne-Smith is of
the opinion too that the failure of
the son of Rev. Taylor to comply
with the provisions of Rev. w. w.
Brownies win and thereby forfeiung
the $500 that was to come TO him
when he became of age had much
TO do with Rev. Taylor's attitude in
denying TO her the money due. Rev
Taylor denies that il had anything
to do with IL, ami insists that he is
only acting for the best interests OF
the order.

WOULDN'T PAY HIM A SALARY

When Rev. w. W. Browne died,
Rev. DIR. Taylor's son was living
with him. In his will he specified
that If he remained with his wife un-
til he was of age. he should have
FIVE hundred dollars. After this the
relationship between Rev. Taylor's
son and Mrs. Browne became strain
ed and the son wanted a regular sal
airy paid TO him. Mrs. Browne
thought that as she was feeding and
clothing him that he should not ex-
pect a regular salary as his compen-
sation and she refused TO pay him.
Rev. Dr. Taylor was drawn into the
matter and consulted Mrs. Browne

At the County Farm.

Walhalla, r. f. ID. No. 1, February 49,
AS the weather was cold to-day and unfit
for exercise thought that 1 could not
spend the t:mo moro proftab!y than in
writing something of our life at this
place, trusting that it may be of interest
to those who have never been here to see
the workings of such an institution, and
also be as oil on the waters to ease the
mind of the chronic grumbler, who
thinks that he knows it all and imagines
that man who runs the business here
has "fat job" But such people will
find that talk is one thing and practical
experience is another.
wish to say for those most interested
that the commissioners might have
searched Oconee county from one end to
the other with "drag net" and "fine
tooth comb" and they could not have
found any better managers FOR this place
than Mr.. and Mrs. w. r Cobb. They are
kind and attentive to all those whose cir
cumstances have made it necessary for
them to seek shelter here, and no doubt
their patience has been and is now sorely
tried by such a rnglomeration as is gene
rally found at sLch an institution as this.
Your humble servant has been in
stalled here for week, furnishing his
own quarters. 1t is new experience to
me, but while that is the case / am try
ing to be as cheerful and happy as very
we'll can be under existing circumstances.
have very comfortable quarters and /
have tried to make them look as home
like as possible, and, above all, to keep
them clean, and think that my influence
has got some of the other inmates to
brighten up" little. l am we'll cared
for and every one is kind to me. The
food is wholesome and we'll prepared and
is stinted.
Wehave no "social functions or $50
ciety fads at this place. 1t is plain every
day, 70 as you please and every one for
himself. When the bell rings you line
up before the kitchen window with your
little cup and plate and it comes back to
you loaded. If you have not the ca
pacty to get on the "outside" of the
ter with your appetite.
There are nineteen white inmates and
one colored, making twenty in all. There
are also two convicts, both colored.
The running expenses for the month
of January was S24. so and for the month
of February $28 So This includes ra-
tions, shoes and clothes for the inmates
of the institution. So you see that Mr..
and Mrs Cobb are not very extravagapt.
We had q hog killing here to-day and
two fine shoats succumbod to the knife
of the grim destroyer" and what we
will do for "back bones and spare ribs"
will be for the good of the country and
we will eat sausage to "beat the band"
Please tell my good friends through
your columns that | said not to forget
me because am here in this secluded
spot and that any little token of remem-
brance will be highly appreciated and
thankfully received. and would be glad
of visit from those who feel an interest
in me. Come and see how nicely am
fixed up, and if you have time take cru
ner with me and then you will see how
we fare and how the business is con-
Quoted and then you can make mp your
mind whether or not you ever want to be

GETS THE COIN
THEN LEAVES
Kelliher Man Plays Cruel
Prank on German Work
ing Girl.

The local police have been noti-
fed to watch out for a man for.
merly a resident at Kelliher who
recently left that village with a
trunk belonging to a-hard work
ing German girl and $25 in cash
which he had borrowed from her.
From description given by the
girl, who was in the city few
days ago making inquiries as to
the whereabouts of the man, he
is woodsman. He left Kelliher
some time ago with the trunk
and the money, saying that he
was going to Dakota and that he
would write to the girl, whom he
had promised to marry. After
waiting for several days the girl
became suspicious and came to
Bemidji to make inquiries, but
was unable to find any trace Of
her quondam fance. The girl
has now left for Dakota where
the search for the man will be
continued. She is about 10 years
of age and has been employed in
a restaurant at Kelliher.
