Crisp County Go for Drive With
Their SWANS and Marry.
The Macon Telegraph of Tuesday
printed the following special dis
patch of double elopement at Cor
dele in which one of the brides was
a popular young lady of near Sasser,
this county, who was visiting in

romantic affair is as follows:
when Miss Frances Atkins, the
attractive daughter of J. B. Atkins,
one of northwest Crisp's prosperous
farmers, and her guest, Miss Maude
Pipkin, of Sasser, in company with
Robert Lyles and Roy Burnam, both
of Cordele, left the Atkins home late
Yesterday afternoon that was chapter
one and the suspicious OF the old
folks were not even aroused.
when dark came and the young
people failed to show up that was
chapter two. The suspicious of the
parents became aroused, and just
about the time a searching party was
being planned a telephone message
came from the court house in Cor
dele from Miss Atkins gently inform
ing her mother. who answered the
telephone, that both she and her
visitor had been married by Ordi-
nary w. S. Coney to Mr.. Lyles and
Mr.. Burnam, and that she need not
expect them home that night.
"Joe A. Vandivere, young man
frie nd who had gone out to the At
kins home with the young near
groomsmen, was left at the house
with the parents when the two coup
les went for a ride without having
been furnished with a single init
nation of the intentions OF his COM
panions. Before the telephone mes
sage announcing the marriage he
was called upon to explain, but in
vain. He had been left unawares at
the mercy of the parents The two
young couples will make their fu-
ture homes in Cordele, where they
have hosts of friends, who wish them
much happiness"

houses had received 225 bales OF

read and adopted; the different COM
mittees were named but not appoint
ed at the meeting; the names Of the
committees and those comprising
them will be found in another place
in this issue.
The name Of the organization not
being satisfactory to some Of the
members, it was decided to reopen
the question of remaining it. There
were several names put before the
meeting and it was decided to vote
on the question. This brought the
names, Chamber of Commerce and
Business League so near a tie that
it was decided to let Mr. w. q.
Seaver name the club, which he did
to the satisfaction Of those present.
Quite number of new members
were enrolled, and enthusiasm pre-
vailed throughout the entire meet
ing. That work was needed to be
done, and that the club was to do
it, was very evident during the
meeting, and steps will be taken
Immediately to begin work.
A letter from a lady wishing to
either rent or build a hotel on the
beach was read. The information
desired will be furnished the lady
with the hope that she will find it
to her advantage to locate here.
A motion was put before the
meeting to have all meetings public,
and that any citizen of Jackson
county was at liberty, and invited,
not only to attend, but to assist in
upbullding the town and comnun-
ity, in social as well as in a busi-
ness way.
