No family could leave Marietta whose
departure would be more deeply re-
GREETED than that of Col. and Mrs.
Everett and family. Col. Everett iden-
titled himself with the Presbyterian
Church on coming here about five years
ago, and no one has worked more faith
fully and lovingly than he. He never
has hesitated when he saw anything to
be done. As superintendent of Sunday
school, his worth was more keenly felt
than elsewhere. He gathered in the
children of the poor in hundreds of in
stances, seeing that they were provided
with suitable clothing TO attend. Mrs.
Everett has served several years as
president of the Home Mission Society.
and has done q noble work, guided by
an intelligent mind and great executive
ability. Fortunate indeed, will be At
lanta, and doubly fortunate the church
where Col, and Mrs. Everett will cast
their lot. Marietta realizes its irrepara-
bic loss, and many are there hoping
that they will live here again.
