matter further consideration | ar
rived at a definite conclusion revers-
ing my first statement. On Monday,
the 18th inst, l rendered my resigna-
ton to Governor Brown to take eff
feet at once, and it has been accepted.
I am frank to say that l regret
very much resigning the position that
you honOred me to without opposi-
ton, but the circumstances under
which l resigned l hope will be con-
sidered by my friends, and l trust
will meet their approval. Since my
election to the office of representa-
tive of Terrell county my business
has temporarily taken me to Column
bus. My right to hold the position
has been questioned, and l have been
criticised in that l would not resign
on account of my temporary absence
from the county. AS to the extent of
the criticism l have no knowledge
Some would have you believe that
am a nonresident. How absurd.
Inasmuch as l have resigned by
position l wish to say to my friends
and to the voters of Terrell county
that | was born and reared in Ter
rell county, and my home has always
been there. l am still a citizen of
Terrell county, and expect to live and
die a citizen of the county, among
the friends of my youth, who have so
honOred me by electing me to the
Legislature without opposition. l
have never moved my citizenship,
and l pay my poll and other taxes
there just as | have always done. l
might give several reasons for My
resignation, one of which l have in
timated, but the chief among them
is the inconvenience and expense of
moving my family back to Terrell
county, which l think would be prop
err, before the legislature meets in
June, and would have to board them,
say about two months, and then have
to move them back to Columbus.
Now, as l have abandoned the du-
ties to which you called me, giving
reasons for same, l hope it will not
be considered disregarding the obi
cations or Sinking any responsible
ty, for | appreciate very highly the
consideration and trust that you have
reposed in me. The course thus per-
sued l hope will not merit the con-
demnation of a single patriotic citi-
zen of the county. l beg to remain
very truly, NJ. H. MARSHALL, Jr.

CAPT. PICKETT's CANDIDACY.
Americas Paper Says 1t Is Watched
With Interest There.

The Americas Times-Recorder no
tees Mr.. D. G. Picketts candidacy
for the legislature as follows:
THE many Americas friends of
Mr.. Dewitt c. Pickett, for some time
a resident of this city, will watch
with much interest the result of the
campaign he is waging over in Ter
rell to secure the honor of represent
ing that county in the house. Mr..
Pickett is we'll known to be an in
defatigable worker, a hustler from
start to finish, and his friends here
are fully aware, without his telling
them, that a pretty effective canvass
is on with him in the field. Who is
running against him is not known,
but whoever he is he has a pace set
for him that will take all of his ener-
gy to keep up with from now to cleo
ton day. Long interested in state
politics, as he has been, it is not sur
prising that Mr.. Pickett seeks seat
in the legislature. He will make
Terrell an able representative.

CAPT. VIM. KAIGLER is DEAD
WELL-KNOWN AND PROMINENT
CITIZEN PASSES AWAY.
Was a Gallant Confederate Soldier,
and Filled Number of Offices of
Honor and Responsibility.

| ~
| and Filled Number of Offices of
Honor and Responsibility.
Capt. William Kaigler died at the
home of his nephew, Mr.. L. C. Hoyl,
on Sunday morning at 1925 o'clock.
He had been in feeble health for
sometime, but was confined to his
bed only ten days during his last ill
ness.
The interment occurred Sunday af-
ternoon at 4 o'clock after funeral
services conducted at the residence
| by DR.. ]. P. McFerrin, large number
of friends and acquaintance gather
| ing to pay the last tribute to one
who had been a conspicuous figure
in war and peace.
Capt. Kaigler was in the 18th year
of age, and had been resident
of Dawson since the civil war He
was born near Columbia, S. c., in
1888, and in 1886 his parents moved
to Randolph county, Georgia. When
| the war between the states was de-
clared he was one of the first to vol
unteer in defense of those principles
| for which the south so heroically con-
tended. Enlisting as a private he
was mustered into service under
Capt. Marcellus Douglass of Cuthb bert.
He rose to the rank of lieutenant, and
after two years service in that Office
was elected captain of company of
sharpshooters and held that command
until the close of the war.
Captain Kaigler's service as a SOL
der extended through the four years
of hostilities, and he was in a number
of the most important battles. He
was in West Virginia and Virginia
at the time of the historic battles
! fought there. He was with Gen
eral Stonewall Jackson at the bat
| tie of Mechanicsville, and was in
| the seven days battle around Rich
mond. He was in the thickest of the
fight at the second battle of Manas-
sas, in which Pope's forces were
driven back to Washington. He
served under Generals Lee and Jack
son in Maryland, and was with Jack
son at Harper's Ferry when 1000
United States soldiers were captured.
He was at Charlottsburg or Antietam,
and closed a gallant career as a con-
federate soldier at AppomattoX,
where history records him as in COM
mand of the forces that fired the last
shot of the war.
After the close of the war Captain
Kaigler located in Terrell county and
engaged in school teaching and farm
| ing for several years. He then
moved to Dawson and engaged in the
mercantile business. He served Ter
rell county as sheriff for several
terms, served as a member of the
, Legislature and held the office of may
or Dawson. He was also several
times a member of the board of al
dermen.
Captain Kaigler's immediate rela-
tives have all passed away except one
brother, Mr.. John NJ. Kaigler, now
resident of Weston, Ga. He is sur
vived by a number of nieces and
nephews.
His casket was graced with many
beautiful floral offerings, and draped
with the flag of the Confederacy.

His Resignation to Governor.


His Resignation to Governor.
Representative NJ. H. Marshall, Jr.,
has resigned from the legislature.
Coming as it did so soon after his
recent visit to Dawson, when he
stated to all with whom he talked on
the subject that he would serve the
remainder of his term, and the state
ment that The News printed at his
request that he considered Terrell
county his home and would in d very
short while move his family back to
Dawson from Columbus, the resigna-
ton was a great surprise.
The first intimation anyone here
had of Mr. Marshall's resignation
was news item in Wednesdays At
lanta Constitution that Governor
Brown had received and accepted it.
Hints at Something.
In a letter The News received Sat
urday from Mr.. Marshall for publ
cation is an intimation that there is
something connected with the matter
of which the people do not know.
He expresses regret that circum-
stances were such as to make him
think it best to tender his resigna-
ton, and adds that these circum-
stances will probably be made known
to the people of Terrell county
soon" The letter in full follows:
Columbus, Ga, March 18th, 1910.
Hon. E. l.. Rainey, Dawson, Ca
Dear Sir: l desire to thank you for
the statement that you made for me
in the last issue of your paper advis
ing my friends that | would serve
my term in the legislature, but since
seeing you and after further consid-
Grafton of the matter | arrived at a
definite conclusion Monday, at which
time | rendered my resignation to
Governor Brown and it has been ac-
cepted. l regret very much doing
this, but under the circumstances |
feel it best-the circumstances of
which will probably be made known
to the people of Terrell county soon.
Please make this statement for me
in the next issue of your paper and
very greatly oblige. Yours very tru-
ly, M H. MARSHALL, JR.

binary Cheatham of Mr.. Marshall's
resignation and directed that official
to call an election, to be held after
twenty days notice has been given,
to fill the vacancy.

can be taken toward calling an cleo

Insane for Hiring Him

SENATOR DOLLIVER tells of the trial
~ of man for murder, who was undoubt-
edly guilty, but was acquitted, greatly to
the surprise of the presiding Judge. The
jury had been out two days considering the
case, without reaching a conclusion. Then
the Judge called the jury into court and
asked what the difficulty was. The foreman
said:
Judge, there is only one thing that is
troubling us. Was the prisoner counsel ap-
pointed by the court or retained by the prls-
oner himself"
The prisoner is man of means" said
the Judge, and he retained his own coun-
sell
Ten minutes later the jury sent out word
that an agreement had been reached. They
filed into the court. The foreman rose and
announced the verdict:
Acquitted, on the ground of insanity"

The Thief Had to Tell

THE father of William Jennings Bryan
was a wise old farmer. Once he had
several fine hams stolen from his smoke
house. He missed them at once; but said
nothing about the loss, not even to any men,
Der of his family. A few days afterward a
neighboring farmer came to him and said:
SO, Mr. Bryan, | heard tell that some of
your hams was stole t'other night"
Yes, had several very fine hams stolen"
please don't tell anyone. You and l are the
only ones that know it.

Room for One More

A RCHBISHOP IRELAND was urging
\ one of his senatorial friends to help the
church with his presence; but the Senator
declined to be regular churchgoer, giving
this reason:
But there is always room for one more"
said the genial prelate, as he gripped the
hand of his statesman friend.
