AhotNdNuokof Leuuss May l. Early
yesterday morning Father Thomas
sherman and an escort from the
Twelfth Cavalry at Fort Oglethorpe
left on horseback over the route taken
by Gen. W. T. Sherman, his father. in
the famous march to the sea, for the
purpose of obtaining data for the
archives Of the War Department
Father Sherman was accompanied by
Second Lieut.. Campbell, three non
commissioned officers and six privates.
The company will be furnished sub
sistence and forage at various points
along the route as provided by the
War Department. Father Sherman,
who is a Jesuit, said mass at Fort
Oglethorpe Sunday morning. After
reaching Atlanta the soldiers will
return.
IEDIoNATIoN AT SAVANNAH.
Savannah, Ga. May Father Sher-
mans proposed march through Georgia
has provoked great deal of adverse
comment here. Many characterize
such a march as infamous and an
insult. Capt. Young, president Of the
Confederate Veterans Association.
discussing the proposed visit of tie
son Of Gen. Sherman, said:
" IL would not surprise me TO find
that there has been some error in the
report as sent out, and that it may be
found that Father Sherman does not
have the intention Of coming through
the South in the manner the telegrams
describe. At any rate l would not be
disposed TO condemn the act until /
knew the object and intention Of il.
Il cannot imagine what possible
good such visit can do, but it may
do considerable harm in awakening
the memories of one of the most brutal
marches ever made. There certainly
is nothing to be proud of in Sherman q
marching with a large army through
a country undefended, and then to re
port TO his government that he had
destroyed more than twice as much
property as necessary for the support
of his army. Sherman wantonly did
this without just cause.
Then, again, the government can
scarcely understand the temper Of our
people, since it Is deemed necessary
for the son Of Sherman TO have a guard
as he advances through the country.
Notwithstanding all that has been
done, he would find himself as safe in
this section as in any other section of
the country" "
NfN.is -. ~ 10 NAAAAttNltf QtUuil clerk
Of the United States Court and a
prominent member of the G. A. r.,
was equally pronouced in his denun-
citation. He said:
- II Is outrageous. II the reverend
father wants to see the ground over
which his father went why doesn't he
get carriageS I can't see how the
government can furnish an escort. "
City officials and others around the
City Hall do not look with favor on
the proposed march. Many Of the
sentiments expressed would not make
polite reading. Some ventured the
statement that IL the matter we're left
TO them they would as nearly as pos
sible give 90 the son the same recep-
tion the people gave the father.
Others, expressing the idea still more
clearly, said they thought the party
should be given the cold shoulder and
nothing 10 eat.
Acting Mayor Dixon said 'If it
were left TO me I'd have him caught
and hung before he reached Savan-
nah. -

room, as she thought, unobserved: but
Mrs. Fry had seen the ac. as she
chanced to glance back. and wondered.
Mrs. Hamilton's first act after re-
turning home and removing her wraps
was TO write to Swan and send him the
three strands of hair neatly gummed

from the head OF a person resembling
my husband in some respects. Do not

that he is not. Please submit the hair

Swan knew of no specialist In such
matters. but he felt convinced that a
practiced dealer in human hair might
give him points of elucidation. Ac-
