CHRISTMAS MESSAGE
ISSUED TO GEORGIA
PEACE ADVOCATES

1 j. j. Hail president of the Georgia
! branch Of the American Peace society,
has issued the following Christmas
message to peace advocates in Georgia:
The first Christmas morn was ush-
| erred i'm by the song of angels. Heaven
itself seemed oyercharged with music
| and some Of it's sweetest strains fell
upon this world Of ours, and the aston
| ished shepherds ON the plains of Beth
jI-hem heard the strain. Glory to God in
the Highest on Earth Peace and Good
! VIII to Men
Tile astonishing hing is that the
world has been so long In receiving the
message War and not peace has en-
gagged the attention Of men from gen
Grafton 20 generation, until today the
! nations are staggering under the awful
! burden of a war debt amounting to the
great sum of thirty Eight billions Of
/ dollars. And what shall be said of the
millions Of the human beings who have
/ fallen in battle fields?
we all desire peace and the time is
coming when war win be looked upon
/ as something worse than a blunder.
! Reason and not force will settle great
international questions.
In the meantime let us practice those
things which make for peace. so there
viii be less strife, less anger, less bit
! terness this Christmas time than ever
in the past.
Peace be to this house was a salu-
tation the first evangelists had to car
ry. If l could I would bring the same
sweet word to every home today. Oh.
men and women who read these lines.
carry some token OF peace into your
homes this Christmas time. and do i.
with glad heart and a sunny face.
1T may be that an absent son OF
daughter could send n message that
would bring peace to loved ones far
away. DO it, Employers have a spIen-
did opportunity at this season of The
! year to ameiorate the hardships of
many who work for them and theraby
lessen the friction betN cen capital ana
labor Both being absolutely necee-
sary, let each take the other by the
hand and swear eternal friendship.
Let our sympathy go out world
wide to hasten the day when the song
Of the angels, Peace on Earth shall
be the precious realization of all man
kind

Realty Transfer Made in 1868 Just Approved
$3.50 FOR 100000 TRACT

Real eshtate experts on the Fulton

exactly $25o.9S, whereas the real estate
he disposed OF is said to be worth $40, %

required by law. Pttman, it seems,
rather than the direct agent of Fulton
county.
So Landers, apprehensive that Pitt
mans action would constitute a flaw on
his title, petitioned the commission to
ratify the sale
According to the record, former Ordi-
nary Pittman sold 80 acres of land,
which had been the site OF the old aims
house, to John S. Wilson. on December

The jury in the J. B. sneed case is

fused to allow them to enter the
court room this mrning, and they
sent him a note saying they were

spiracy to reunite his wife and AL
Boyce let down the bars to fullest
evidence.
Testimony was given that dates
back to the school days of Sneei,
Mrs. Sneed, then Lena Snyder, and

Royce had said the affair had beer

or Noyemb Der, 1910. both famfift
having gone to Amarillo and A
iBoyce having made his headquarter
there since August, 1910, after al
absence of several years in Montana
and West Texas ranchfng On thi.
occasion Mrs. Boyce objected to Al
/ taking Mrs Sneed to the opera
house alone. She said she thought
little more about it, Al leaving thai,
same night on business trip and
being away a long time. July %,
1911, she said Mrs. Sneed came to
her house and she learned of the af-
fair. Mrs. Sneed could not be used
as a witness by the state under the
rule against a wife testifying unless
called upon to do so by her hus-
band. and the defense could not call
her under their theory that she was
insane and Sneed so believed her.
What Mrs. Sneed told Hrs. Doyce
was therefore never revealed at the
trial.
Sneed, in testlfylng, declared ne
became acquainted with the affair
Oct 10. when Mrs. Sneed told hin
of her infatuation and her purpose
to go away with Al Bo2ce. Once be-
fore he had entered the house to
find AL Boyce standing by her bed
when she was i'll and upon asking
her If he had not seen Boyce hold
ing her hand his wife replied that
she had just asked him to look how
purple her nails were, a popularity
that accompanied her illness.
All the night of October 10 Sneei
declared he. talked with his wife,
trying to understand, and finally
attempted to kill her and himself
This, he said, was prevented after
he had drawn pistol and was
struggling with Mrs Sneed to get
her so he could use 1t, when their
little girl came in and he desisted.
