Tour To Europe.

Mrs. J. P. Callaway took the 1881
train Tuesday for a tour of Europe
! Mrs. Galloway will visit relatives in
Forsyth, their friends in Louisville,
KY, reaching New York about the
18th inst. Mrs. Galloway expects
to be one of a party, conducted by
Miss Florence NJ. Rohr, of Brenau
College, Gainesville. Ga,
Among the members of the party
are Mr.. and Mrs. j. d. Woodside,
Greehville, S. c., and Mi s s
Florence M. Overton, of West
field, New York. They are Booked
to sail on June 18th on S. S. Kaiser
Franz Josef l." Austro American
Line, for Naples. Italy, and will
visit various places in Italy, Switzer-

that there will be others in the
party. Many who had contemplated
going abandoned the trip, after the
Titatic disaster.
The Journal bids the party a
pleasant voyage, and while the edi-
tor would enjoy the sights across the
ocean, he is like the man who at
tended a convention at Brunswick
several years since and saw the ocean
for the first. When asked to go out
on the water with an excursion,
said, "No, that pond is too big, for
me 1 wont go. ;"

Tribute to the Memory Of
C, H. BEAzLEY,

who left this frail tenement Of clay,
June 1st, 1912. Although of frail
and fragile form, he possessed a
heart as large and tender as wo-
mans. He was not an ordinary
man by any means, Of towering in
tellect he grappled with the things,
of logic and lore. His bible was his
daily companion, he studied it, that
he might understand the great truths
therein.
C. II. Beazley was a genius.
Seventeen years ago, he left bis
home. a poor boy after studying
law in Washington, Ga. He decided
to make Leesburg bis home, sue.

A Tragic Death.

Ca Friday evening last, soon after
! 5 O'Clock, Mr.. C. H. Beazley, q
prominent citizen and attorney Of
Leesburg, while alone at the resi-
dence of Mr.. HI. r. Stovall, was
fatally burned. Mr.. Beazley was
boarding with his relative, Mr..
Stovall, and all the family were away
at the time. He seems to have been
carrying a lamp from one room into
another, when, by some means, he
fell, the lamp was broken, near a
bed, and his head, arms AMI upper
part of his body and the bed, satu-
rated with oil and burning, when
discovered by Mr.. ]. R. Avery, who
lives in the adjoining hoGse nearby.
Mr.. Avery pulled the body out to
the veranda and quenched the fire,
his wife in meantime giving the
alarm and assisting. Soon large
crowd gathered, also Doctors Stat
ham and Clark, who soon dressed
the burns, and gave other relief, Mr..
Beazley was then carried to Mr.. S.
j. Yeoman's residence and treated
until he expired about 2 p. M,
Saturday. Doctors WEIGH and His
man, of Albany, we're called in to
assist. Soon after the terrible oc-
currance, until relieved by sedatives,
his suffering was intense. 1t was.
the most awful ordeal we have ever
witnessed. The remains were car
ried to Mr.. Beazley's old home,
Charlottesville, Saturday night, and
buried Sunday. In the presence of
such shocking calamity we feel
awed.
Mr.. Beazley was reared in Craw-
fordsville, and when a young man,
about 20 years since, came to Lees
burg, and entered the practice of
law. For a number Of years, he
was Solicitor of the County Court,
was elected to the Georgia Legis-
lature for 1909 and 1910; at there
cent primary was nominated for
Judge of the City Court Of Leesburg.
He was a good lawyer, alert active,
well poised, with bright, inves-
tigating mind, had he lived, would
have risen to higher station. +,
Mr.. Beazley was a great aeader,
was well posted and had poetic gifts,
which, if cultivated, would have
given him extensive reputation. A
book Of poems written by him, has
been pronounced very meritorious.
For several years he owned and
edited The Lee County Journal, and
his verses "Cracklings and Car
ameIs" were often quoted by the
press of the State.
Mr.. Beazley had many relatives
in this county and adjoining coun-
ties. Elsewhere friend has in this
issue communication worthy Of
careful persual. These lines pen
ned by one not SO gifted in language
and speech, are nevertheless in
tended as at least feeble express
sion of the minds of this departed
friend. Virtues he had, let's imi-
tate them; faults he>had, let's Jury

a bar to appeal of cases then pending

held TO the contrary.
