OBITUARY. William Babbidge Sawyer, one
of the best known residents of Searsport and
veteran of the Civil war, with most bril-
liant record, died September 18th, after long
illness. He was born in Searsport, April 20,
1889, the son of Eben and Eliza Kempton Saw
yer. He enlisted as corporal in Captain Daniel
L. Dickeys Company E, 18th Maine regiment,
which was mustered in on August 26, 1862. He
was repeatedly promoted for bravery in action;
to sergeant of his company, second lieutenant
of Company F, and was mustered out at the
end of the war, May 81, 1865, as first lieutenant
of Company l. Few regiments saw more real
fighting than the 18th Maine and it means
much to say that a soldier had served in that
regiment from muster-in to muster-out and no
soldier of that regiment came home with more
brilliant record for bravery than Mr.. Sawyer.
Such battles as Fredericksburg, Chancellors-
vile, Gettysburg, Bristol Station, Bull Run,
Wilderness, Spottsylvania, Cold Harbor, Pc
tersburg and many other engagements which
made history. were on his discharge papers,
Lieutenant Sawyer was in some of the fercest
fighting of the war. In the terrific slaughter
at Weldon railroad when 626 men were moved
down in IL minutes, he saved the colors after
the color sergeant had fallen. He was in a
detachment on the skirmish line that was
driven in by Pickett's famous charge. and in
another engagement again carried the colors
after three brave men had been picked off by
sharpshooters. Near the close of the war he
was detached on recruiting duty After the
war was over he returned to Searsport and
engaged in the cooperage business until obliged
to retire by failing health number of years
ago. He is survived by his wife; one daughter,
Mrs. Jennie Shute of Standpoint; five sons,
William H. of Somerville, Mass, Harvey of
birmingham, Mass, Eben of New York. and
Frederick and Arthur of Searsport; also by
two sisters, Mrs. Phebe Darling of Providence,
R. l., and Mrs. Lizzie Hanson of Woodfords,

SEEK TRIAL BY MILITARY COURT,

The movement inaugurated in Allan
ia some time ago to urge the enact
ment Of law providing for trial by a
military court of any one charged with
an offense committed while in the
mill, airy service commends itself to
the sound judgment of the public at
large.
The conditions surrounding a mibit-
faman when on duty are such that he
should not be subjected to trial i'm a
civil court for acts committed at thac
time. A soldier doing riot duty and
wounding a citizen in a Strange com
munity should not be put upon trial IN
that community and made, as might be
the case, the victim of the vengeance
of the friends of tie injured. That was
recently done In Texas and the sold er
was sent to the penitentiary for life
as a result.
The state exacts considerable from
those who enlist in its service and
gives little or nothing in return save
.the satisfaction the men derive from
the service rendered. If a is to be
come an established principle that the
men are to be tried in local civil
courts for acts done in The perform
ance of their duty it would not be
long before a crimp would be put IN
the enfstments.
When the next Legislature meets it
should throw as much protection
around the states soldiery as possible.
No one wants immunity for the SOL
diers for any crimes they may commit.
but at the same time it shouE1 he eeen
to that they are not subjected to pref
udice and feelings of revenge, as is
liable to be the case under the system
that seems to prevail at this time. An
incident in Georgia like that in Texas
would do much to demoralize the
states military establishment.

SHORT WEIGHTS AND SHORT
MEASURES.

An agitation is going On in several
Georgia cities for a more rigid super
vision of The weights and measures
used by merchants generally While
there are laws governing such matters
they have long since fallen into disuse
and no one, in any community, seem.
charged with the duty of seeing that a
pound is pound and a peck peck.
In these days of high prices it is
more than ever essential chat weights
and measures should be kept on a
correct basis. Standards should be
available in every town and there
should be some one charged with the
duty of seeing that the weights and
measures in use in the stores are KEEP
up to the standards. This is not nee
essarily reflection on tae merchants
Weights in long use are very prone to
get out OF order. They rust. dust and
dirt ccllects on them, and it is prob
ably safe assertion that il a half doz-
en- were tested no two fthem would
be found alike. So it is with measures,
although perhaps in a less degree.
There has been no agitation of the
question in Americas as yet, but mas
much as it is under discussion in other
Georgia towns it is inevitable that it
should finally reach here. The duty of
maintaining proper standards in this
respect doubtless res5s on the city
government and the public looks to It
for a reasonable supervision.

owners, Messrs. Thomas, Nftlack and
Wilson, of Winder, Ca, to Messrs.
Best & Lowe, of Huntsville, S. C.
While this is known to be one of the
best farms in Southwest Georgia, it is

of history that are connected with it.
The plantation was formerly owned
by the late Senator Ben Hill. one of
the geratest statesmen Georgia, has
ever produced, and he always made it
his winter home.
The sale of this big plantation was
made through r. A. Malone & Son
