To Help Ben Talbot

The many friends of unfortunate
Ben Talbot are bestirring them
selves in his behalf.
The report comes from Atlanta
that an operation will relieve him
and restore him to good health and
strength.
The unusual expense to which the
family has already been put has
embarrassed them and there was
some doubt aslo theirabiIity to stand
the expense Of the necessary opera
ton and medical attention, but his
friends here have rallied to his as
sistance and have Witten his mother
that they will raise the money.
With that purpose in view they
have arranged with the manage
ment of the Lyric Theater for the
proceeds of a nights entertainment,
and next Tuesday night every dollar
above actual expenses will be i'm
mediately forwarded to Mrs. Talbot
in Atlanta to assist her in securing
the proper medical treatment of her
unfortunate son.

One thing at least is assured, that neither side will be asleep during the coming month and that a lively cam paign is on.

 He was about 46 years old and had been in the employ of the Southern for about 15 years.
 He is survived by his widow, his mother and two brothers, all of Tus- cumbia The funeral was held from his late residence, the Rev. MT. ". F. Trump officiating.
